History

Keen on motorsport from his earliest childhood, Philippe Gaso decided to fully dedicate himself to his ambition: becoming a racing driver and making his name known in this competitive world. Motivated and guided by the elation of living his dreams, he finally reached the top of the podiums thanks to his tenacity.
The emotions he lived as a racing driver gave him the willingness to share his Passion.

An idea was born: creating timepieces with the name of Genova Tecnica Orologi, a tribute to his grand-father's horology store created in the 1930s in Italy.

By reinventing these three letters from his legacy, Philippe Gaso was willing to share his feeling with you. GTO design precision and timepieces technical nature give you the opportunity to not only wear a watch but to live a truly experience.
