GENTISSIMA OURSIN 36 BLACK ONYX

The Gentissima Oursin 36 Black Onyx is an exercise in pure contrast and controlled intensity. Its deep black onyx dial delivers a mirror like depth, absorbing light rather than reflecting it, and creating a powerful visual calm. Stripped of ornament, the dial becomes a statement of confidence and restraint, allowing material and form to speak with clarity.

Surrounding this dark centre are 223 individually polished white gold beads, meticulously set to form the iconic Oursin case inspired by the sea urchin. Their sculptural rhythm introduces light, texture and movement, creating a striking dialogue between brilliance and shadow. This tactile architecture reflects the artistic philosophy of Gérald Genta, where watches are conceived as wearable sculptures grounded in Swiss precision.

At 36 millimetres, the Gentissima Oursin Black Onyx sits with quiet authority on the wrist. It is a luxury Swiss watch for collectors drawn to graphic elegance, strong material presence and design led horology, where impact is achieved through simplicity rather than excess.
