Comment: This creation born from the workshops of Gilbert Albert is undoubtedly what best symbolizes the theme Time is Feminine. This exuberance in the work of gold is the work of the jeweller Gilbert Albert, one of the emblematic figures of the city of Geneva. He entered the School of Industrial Arts in 1945 and later became the head of the Patek Philippe workshop for several years, before moving on to Omega and creating his own line of fine jewelry.
