The first was awarded for the world's smallest wooden clock, housing a mechanical movement just 2.2 cm high. The second, achieved in 2005, honors the Superbia Humanitatis, the most intricate wristwatch ever built in terms of component count: an astonishing 1,116 individual parts. Renowned for his technical ingenuity, Gerber has also developed a groundbreaking escapement based on the principle of equal and opposing forces. This innovative mechanism comprises a large stationary wheel, a smaller impulse wheel, and a uniquely designed anchor—offering a novel take on energy transmission and efficiency in horology. Among his most poetic creations is the spherical moonphase complication. This remarkable feature displays a three-dimensional moon: one hemisphere crafted from lapis lazuli to represent the moon's dark side, the other adorned with 54 brilliant-cut diamonds to evoke the luminous fullness of the moon. This particular timepiece is powered by Gerber's proprietary Calibre 33, showcasing both the signature escapement and the mesmerizing spherical moon—an exceptional fusion of mechanical sophistication and artistic expression, destined to captivate discerning collectors.
