MILAN — Gucci is taking its watchmaking collection to recent heights — quite literally.

After celebrating its centennial with its first high watchmaking collection and marking 50 years of Swiss-made timepieces with a second iteration, the Florentine luxury home is debuting its third range in Geneva this week.

The gathering reveals an area travel inspiration with moonlight and cosmo references informing the valuable and gemstone-rich designs.

Among the many standouts, three recent versions, including a completely customizable one, join the G-Timeless Moonlight family.

Charting the waxing and waning of the moon, the design features a Gucci movement GGV838.MP and guarantees as much as 360 years of accuracy. The brand new made-to-order 41-millimeter watch, in 18-karat white gold and blue aventurine glass and mother-of-pearl dial, may be personalized entirely to a client’s place, time and date of birth.

Depicting the sky for the time being of birth, six natural gemstones decorate the dial’s moveable rehaut to represent zodiac signs, alongside six diamonds, and customizable characters print. The crown has a cabochon birthstone, and the oscillating weight features the client’s astral map and coordinates. Its alligator strap may be customized, too.

“Gucci’s recent G-Timeless Moonlight masterpiece reflects the trend for private expression, exclusivity and customization… This can be a very special timepiece imbued with a deeply personal message, one we’re proud and excited to launch,” said Maurizio Pisanu, Gucci’s managing director of watches and jewellery.

The brand new customizable timepiece is flanked by two other versions, equally precious, one featuring a mother-of-pearl and purple-blue lacquer dial that highlights a multicolored opal moonphase disc, and the opposite boasting a green aventurine glass and mother-of-pearl dial and green opal moonphase disc.

The gathering is complemented by recent iterations across Gucci’s 4 other timepiece families.

4 additions to the G-Timeless Planetarium range feature a rotating halo of 12 Ethiopian opals or a mix of opals and topazes, peridots and amethysts, amongst other versions. A star-studded timepiece boasts a halo of 12 diamond-punctuated gold stars.

“Just as a planetarium reflects the night sky, this extraordinary timepiece captures the mystery and wonder of our cosmos,” said Pisanu. “It truly is a bit that answers the decision for beauty and enchantment.”

For its jumping hour Grip family, Gucci added a new edition laid with vintage-like hard stones, similar to brick-red jasper and chrysoprase, set in 18-karat pink gold, while the G-Timeless Dancing Bees collection sees the addition of a 0.45-millimeter-thick turquoise dial and pistachio green opal dial versions — each exalting the home’s craftsmanship.
