More than a material choice, meteorite becomes a canvas for creative expression, turning cosmic history into contemporary artwork.

This moment finds its artistic expression in two models: the Black model embodies the instant of impact, with dark meteorite revealing flashes of red from the anodized baseplate and a running small-seconds indicator at 6 o’clock featuring a fiery gradient, all enclosed in a Darkblast steel case.

The Silver model represents stillness after the explosion, where matter cools and crystallizes, pairing a silver meteorite dial with gold accents and a polished steel case.
A material that reshapes millennia of history
The meteorite used for the Maestro 2.0 originates from the Muonionalusta meteorite, estimated to be over 4.5 billion years old, making it one of the oldest materials available on Earth.

Working with meteorite, however, is a delicate challenge. The material is highly ferrous, extremely hard, and cannot be cut like stone.
Only electro-erosion can shape it into the Maestro form, slicing it into ultra-fine layers. Throughout the process, each fragment must remain fully submerged in a protective liquid to prevent immediate oxidation.

Executing this savoir-faire - shaping meteorite to match the Maestro’s complex geometry and engraving the explosion rays at 6 o’clock with near-surgical precision - represents one of the most advanced expressions of Gerald Charles expertise.
A dial that captures a moment in time
The project began with a simple brief - a meteorite dial‑ Maestro - but quickly evolved into a far more ambitious vision. CEO Federico Ziviani challenged the design team to push the limits, expressing a moment, not merely a motif.

Radial apertures pierce the dial to expose the charged baseplate beneath, evoking the shockwaves of impact. At 6 o’clock, a sculptural small-seconds display animates the blast, while the Maestro’s signature geometry directs the energy upward in a dynamic, rising flow.
Roman numerals and indexes appear shifted, tilted, displaced - as though physically pushed aside by the force of the blast.

“Honouring Mr. Genta also means honouring his pioneering use of steel and the creative spirit it unleashed. At Gerald Charles, reshaping history is part of our philosophy of uniqueness - and the Maestro 2.0 Meteorite embodies this vision. These watches are not simply made with meteorite; they tell the story of its journey. By sculpting a billion-year-old meteorite into the iconic Maestro form, we bring cosmic history into the present, turning a fragment of the universe into wearable art.” - Federico Ziviani, CEO, Gerald Charles.
