интервью самого Дженты для Revolution Press
RP: When did people realize it was actually beneficial to be associated with you?
GG: The funny thing was when IWC read that I had designed the Royal Oak and the Nautilus, they immediately published my name as the person who created the Ingenieur SL. So from there it became a good thing to be associated with me. An when people worked with me, they were open about it.
RP: At the launch of the new Vacheron Constantin Overseas in 2004, former CEO Mr. Proellochs cited your role in the design inspiration of the Overseas’ predecessor, the 222. How do you feel about this?
GG: Yes, I noticed that Mr. Proellochs mentioned my involvement in Vacheron Constantin’s 222. But I must say I am flattered today when people mention me in conjunction with products.

Contrary to popular belief Genta is not the designer of the 222 but...Jorg Hysek! Recent research in the archives show that it was not Gerald Genta but 23 year old (at the time) design maverick Jorg Hysek who gave life to the 222!

собственно и история Инженера IWC в свете иронии Дженты заставляет подумать
