Product Information

Full details

The Gresham Genesis G1 is designed for horology enthusiasts who appreciate the intersection of architectural aesthetics and mechanical precision. Its primary benefit is the striking, self-winding skeleton movement housed in a unique 45mm tonneau chassis, offering a bold visual statement on the wrist. While its standout design makes it a versatile conversation piece, users should note that its larger 45mm tonneau frame requires a broader wrist profile for optimal comfort and balanced wearability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this watch require a battery?

No, the Genesis G1 is a mechanical automatic watch that runs entirely on a self-winding movement powered by your wrist movement.

Is the watch water-resistant for swimming?

It is rated at 50m water resistance, which is sufficient for light splashes, but it is not recommended for swimming or showering.

What is the warranty period?

The watch comes with a 2-year international warranty covering mechanical defects.

How do I ensure the watch stays wound?

Wear the watch consistently for 8-10 hours a day to allow the internal rotor to keep the mainspring tensioned.

What material is the case made of?

The G1 features a hybrid construction using a mix of stainless steel and lightweight aluminium.

Troubleshooting

Watch stopped after sitting for two days

The watch relies on a self-winding mechanism; if it has been stationary, manually wind the crown 15-20 times to restart the mainspring.

Time is running slightly fast or slow

Mechanical automatic watches can fluctuate; if the discrepancy is significant, ensure the watch is getting enough wrist movement or consult a professional watchmaker.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking skeleton dial provides a high-end mechanical aesthetic
  • Ergonomic curved tonneau design improves wrist comfort
  • Durable hybrid aluminium and steel chassis construction
  • Self-winding automatic movement eliminates the need for manual daily winding
  • Includes a comprehensive 2-year international warranty

Cons

  • The 45mm tonneau size may be too large for those with slim wrists
  • Water resistance of 50m is not suitable for swimming or diving
  • Open-skeleton design can sometimes affect quick-glance time legibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Gresham Genesis G1, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Winding: If the watch has stopped, gently turn the crown clockwise while in the closed position to build an initial power reserve.
  2. Setting Time: Pull the crown to the second position to adjust the hands. Always rotate the hands clockwise to avoid damaging the movement gears.
  3. Cleaning: Use a dry microfiber cloth to wipe the exhibition windows and the stainless steel frame. Avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.
  4. Storage: Store in the included luxury gift box when not in use to protect the glass from deep scratches.
  5. Care: While rated to 50m, avoid exposing the watch to high-pressure water or saunas, as steam can degrade the movement seals over time.
