Product Information

Full details

The Gresham Genesis G1 is designed for horology enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate architectural design fused with traditional mechanical movement. Its primary appeal lies in the intricate, exposed skeleton automatic movement and a uniquely ergonomic tonneau-shaped chassis, though its bold 45mm dimensions may prove too substantial for those with smaller wrists.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the Gresham Genesis G1 waterproof?

It is water-resistant to 50 meters, meaning it can handle splashes and brief contact with water, but it is not suitable for swimming or diving.

Does this watch require batteries?

No, the Genesis G1 uses a mechanical self-winding automatic movement that is powered by the kinetic energy of your wrist movement.

What is the warranty coverage?

The watch comes with a 2-year international warranty against manufacturing defects.

Can I replace the rubber strap with a metal bracelet?

The watch is fitted with a custom rubber strap; replacing it requires a specialized fitting compatible with the tonneau case design.

How do I care for the skeleton dial?

The dial is sealed behind glass and does not require maintenance; avoid opening the case back as this will void your warranty and expose the movement to dust.

Troubleshooting

Watch stopped running after being off the wrist for a few days

The automatic movement relies on your physical motion; if stationary, it exhausts its power reserve. Simply wind the crown manually or wear the watch to restart the mechanism.

Difficulty reading the time due to the skeleton dial

Ensure the watch is in a well-lit environment; if the issue persists, focus on the luminescent tips of the hands for better contrast against the movement background.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking, modern architectural design
  • High-visibility skeletonized dial
  • Ergonomic tonneau shape contours well to the wrist
  • Includes certificate of authentication for collector value

Cons

  • 45mm case size can be bulky for some users
  • 50m water resistance is insufficient for swimming or diving
  • Rubber strap style is limited to casual or sporty attire

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Genesis G1 functioning correctly, ensure the watch is wound before initial wear by gently turning the crown clockwise. Because the strap is high-density rubber, it is resistant to sweat and moisture but should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth after exposure to salt or chemicals to maintain its integrity. Avoid subjecting the watch to extreme magnetic fields or heavy impacts, as mechanical movements are susceptible to calibration shifts. For storage, use the provided luxury box in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. While the watch is rated to 50m, it is not recommended to submerge the watch or wear it while showering, as sudden changes in temperature can compromise the internal gaskets.
