Trilobe
Trente-Deux x Exquisite Timepieces Limited Edition

Introducing a limited edition of our Trente-Deux collection, distinguished by a bold new purple dial. This vibrant hue gives the watch a strikingly different presence on the wrist, offering a fresh and confident aesthetic.

Limited to 25 pieces, each timepiece features an engraved caseback, bearing the name Exquisite Timepieces along with its individual number, such as « 3 of 25» . This exclusive edition is available solely through our US retailer, Exquisite Timepieces.

Created to accompany the launch of our first Manufacture calibre, the Trente-Deux collection builds upon the legacy of Trilobe’s early creations, staying true to our foundation. Our off-center time display and the reimagined architecture of the Nuit Fantastique dial are paired with an integrated metal bracelet, opening a new territory of expression.

Conceived, designed, developed, prototyped, manufactured, decorated, and assembled in-house, the X-Nihilo is Trilobe’s first Manufacture movement. Its bold architecture revolves around an open island, creating space and spotlighting an isolated, magnified balance wheel.

The X-Nihilo calibre offers a 42-hour power reserve, combining technical excellence with a distinctive aesthetic.

Case and bracelet are designed as a sophisticated, cohesive whole. The bracelet is shaped to perfectly hug the wrist, with each satin-brushed and beveled link gradually narrowing for a refined and fluid taper. The interlinks, polished to a mirror finish, echo the Trilobe’s pointed shape, creating a signature motif and animating the surface with a subtle play of light.

Structurally, the bracelet alternates links and interlinks in a simple yet refined layout and adjusts smoothly thanks to its flexible construction. Interlinks differ on their visible and internal faces: decorative on the outside, functional on the inside, ensuring overall robustness.

It features a double folding clasp engraved with the Trilobe logo. With no visible push buttons, it operates via a spring blade for clean aesthetics and intuitive handling.

The case is composed of seven individually-finished elements, revealing a sculptural silhouette. It features three chamfered tiers with asymmetrical lateral fins and a beveled mid-case.

The bezel presents a unique design: its profile is fluted, with mirror-polished ridges and matte-finished grooves, enhancing the interplay of contrast and light. Its geometry subtly incorporates the Trilobe motif. This new architecture directly echoes the design of the crown, which was specially conceived for this collection.

The Trente-Deux collection remains true to Trilobe’s iconic off-center time display, while introducing a completely reimagined dial. A circular chapter ring, both satin-brushed and mirror-polished, echoes the bracelet’s finish and anchors the composition. Its extreme thinness, combined with its large diameter, requires absolute precision in machining to ensure perfect flatness without deformation.

Every detail enhances the movement’s contrasts: fine or raw grainings on the bridges and plates, black polishing on screws and bushing for a subtle finish. Screws and jewels are highlighted with concave, diamond-polished surroundings.

On the surface, the bridges echo the bracelet’s satin finish, while the rhodium-plated gears display a circular brushing aligned with their motion.

The oscillating weight combines a sunburst pattern with grain texturing, highlighting both its structure and lightness.

A true hallmark of the brand, these textures interact with the 5N gold treatment, whose warmth and patina will evolve over time.

The openworked oscillating weight made of tungsten reveals the balance wheel, supported by a bridge inspired by traditionnal watchmaking. The tailor-made balance wheel features four chronometric regulation screws for precise adjustment, ensuring long-term stability and accuracy.

Resulting from a singular design approach, the oscillating weight is equipped with a system of safety pins that protect the movement from major shocks, preserving the integrity of both bridges and internal components.

Through the sapphire caseback, the movement appears to float in space: the mirror-polished inner case reflects the movement to create striking depth. The « Paris – France » engraving on the movement’s bridge uses a typography inspired by vintage Parisian street signs.
