Three recent maximum timings of the RRab star GI Gem were obtained. Large O-C1-values result from the elements (1) given by the GCVS4 (1). Revised elements are derived from 43 photographic and visual maxima from the RR-Lyrae-database (2) and from the CCD-observations (see table 1): E0=2451149.5079; P=0.43326627 (d). Additionally the "rise time" (m-M/P = 0.133 ± 0.024 was derived from the 1998 observation. The literature value is: 0.09 (1). GI Gem proved to be identical with GSC 0761-0680 which is in agreement with (3).
