With this Mickey Mouse Magician, Gérald Genta evokes the magic of telling the time and the amazement he wanted to provoke with his creations. Dressed as the classic magician that has fascinated us all, Mickey could be the both the magician we saw last evening at a show or the one that amazed us as children at a school performance. Mickey makes a dove appear, both one of the most famous magic tricks and a symbol of love and happiness. With this design, Gérald Genta evokes that unique feeling mixing astonishment, admiration and wonder we have felt after a magic trick and we should feel when looking at a watch.
