The most famous of all modern watch designers, Gerald Genta, passed away in 2011 but many of his creations still dominate the high-end watch space today. Instead, official marketing materials tend to use general and anonymous terms such as “master watchmakers,” “master jewelers,” “expert artisans,” and “skilled craftsmen.” Yet, there are a handful of watch designers whose names do have recognition due to their important creations. However, in modern watchmaking, it is not common practice for big brands to give credit to a specific person (or persons) for a particular watch design. Genta is a watchmaker designer than truly impacted the modern world of horology. There’s Patek Philippe (Antoni Patek and later Adrien Philippe), Audemars Piguet (Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet), Breguet (Abraham-Louis Breguet), Cartier (Louis-François Cartier), Panerai (Giovanni Panerai), and so many other luxury watch brands.
