The Gérald Genta brand was affiliated with Disney since 1984 and had designed several watches featuring beloved characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy. This particular 1990s example depicts Mickey Mouse playing golf. His raised golf club serves as the minute hand, while at the 4 o’clock position a golf ball displays the jumping hour. The retrograde minutes are made of mother-of-pearl. The background is grass green.
