In this episode (recorded in June 2022), hosts Roman (@TimesRomanAU) and Adam (@mediumwatch) sit down for a chat with two very special guests - Mme Evelyne Genta and Alexia Genta (@gerald.genta.heritage).

Join us as for a wide-ranging conversation about Gerald Genta’s difficult early life; career challenges and successes; his inspirations and thoughts on watch design; artistic impression and love of horological complications.
