Notes

1994 will be remembered as the year of the Octo, of which Gerald Genta produced two special series to celebrate their 25th anniversary. The Success Collection includes the present watch which has extremely refined details and is protected by an international patent. The patent covers the components including the carbon fiber, the glass faceted on the inside and the luminous sapphire hands with mirrors.
