Notes

Property of an Important Collector Family

Designed by Gérald Genta for hunters Geoffroy, Fissore, and Canali, the Gefica Safari was crafted in 18K yellow gold with bronze to prevent sun ref lections from alerting game. This rare 33mm edition is an early production model, engraved «No. 14» on the case side, and serial number 27295.

Even though this watch is in quartz movement, this timepiece is highly complicated, featuring an alarm, Moon Phase, GMT, and Day/Date functions. It is completed by its original black leather strap and a unique deployant buckle with an integrated compass.
