Since 2001, the Grand Prix de l’Horlogerie de Genève has been a prestigious annual event rewarding the most beautiful creations of the year. Often compared to watchmaking “Oscars”, the GPHG is a major event in the watchmaking calendar and one of the most famous media showcases in the world.

La Academia del Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) 2020 seleccionó y retuvo ochenta y cuatro relojes en catorce categorías. RESERVOIR está nominado, en la categoría "Buceo", con el RESERVOIR Hydrosphere Bronze x Revolution.

RESERVOIR HYDROSPHERE BRONZE X REVOLUTION “THE MALDIVES EDITION”

Immersion imminent in the waters of the Maldives. The pressure is mounting. Desires for exploration and challenge infuse the senses and the mind. Stay focused, the time to check the equipment: bottles, oxygen, regulator, stabilizer … Sealed to the wrist, Hydrosphere, a watch bearing the image of scuba diving gauges, the first survival instruments for divers.

Having a unidirectional rotating bezel with a double scale graduation, and equipped with a helium valve and a power indicator, RESERVOIR Hydrosphere Bronze asserts its uniqueness with a single needle on the dial. Upending the aesthetics of vintage diving watches, it possesses the mainstays of a successful dive: security, functionality, confidence itself and its equipment.

El estuche estanco que hace las veces de Caja del reloj contiene un grabado original realizado por su ilustrador oficial Alain BOULDOUYRE.

SOBRE EL " GRAND PRIX D'HORLOGERIE DE GENÈVE " (GPHG)

The Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) is intended to annually highlight and recognize the excellence of contemporary watchmaking productions and contribute to the influence of watchmaking throughout the world. The Foundation of the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) is publishing today on its gphg.org website the list of 84 watches nominated by its Academy. Created at the beginning of 2020, the GPHG Academy – encompassing more than 350 key players from the main sectors of the international watch industry – has recently conducted its first round of voting via a dedicated digital platform specially designed to preserve the anonymity of information and the confidentiality of the results. The 84 nominated timepieces, divided into 14 categories, will continue the competition to win one of the 18 prizes intended to salute the year’s finest watchmaking creations, including the prestigious “Aiguille d’Or” Grand Prix.

Antes de la ceremonia de entrega de premios, el GPHG organiza cada otoño una exposición itinerante en las principales ciudades del mundo en la que se presentan los relojes preseleccionados. Excepcionalmente este año, los relojes se presentarán únicamente en Suiza en las siguientes ciudades :

• La Chaux-de-Fonds : Musée International d’Horlogerie (MIH), 14-18 october
• Zurich : Bucherer, 20-22 octobre – Berne : Hôtel Bellevue, 23-25 october
• Genève : Musée d’Art et d’Histoire (MAH), 30 october-15 november

Próximamente se constituirá un jurado de 30 miembros procedentes de la Academia, que se reunirá a puerta cerrada en Ginebra. Durante este encuentro supervisado por notario, evaluarán físicamente cada uno de los relojes nominados y emitirán un voto final secreto. Todos los miembros de la Academia participarán también en la votación final a través de la plataforma digital específica.

The names of the winners will be announced on Thursday November 12, 2020, at the 20th GPHG awards ceremony, a unifying event that plays a strategic role in promoting the new models released by the sector.
