Introducing Trilobe Unveils The Nuit Fantastique Ombre & Lumière

Trilobe is a next-gen independent watchmaker founded in 2018 by Gautier Massonneau, who also serves as the CEO. This Paris-based brand has quickly garnered attention for its groundbreaking approach to timekeeping. Renowned for its patented "no hands" time display, Trilobe utilizes rotating discs and three fixed pointers to indicate hours, minutes, and seconds, offering a unique and captivating way to read time. This innovative spirit was evident in the brand's first moon phase complication.

As Geneva Watch Days opens its doors, Trilobe expands the Nuit Fantastique collection with two new models, the Nuit Fantastique Ombre & Lumière. With these additions, Trilobe delves into the Art Brut, a term coined by French artist Jean Dubuffet, which translates to 'raw art.' Dubuffet, a pioneer of this unconventional art form, sought to transgress norms, challenge classical representations, and disrupt the cultural landscape of his time. He created tension and energy in his work by juxtaposing colors, bringing dynamism to his compositions.

The watch features a grade 5 titanium case made up of three pieces, combining brushed and polished finishes. It comes in two diameters, 40.5 mm and 38.5 mm, with a thickness of 9.2 mm. The domed bezel is equipped with a sapphire crystal that has a multi-layered anti-reflective treatment, complemented by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal case back.

The dial is available in either a white or black hue, featuring three rotating rings that display the scales of time. The largest ring indicates the hours, the minutes wheel appears within an aperture, and the seconds wheel alternates between a Clous de Paris center. 

The new Nuit Fantastique is equipped with the X-Centric calibre, an automatic movement developed exclusively for Trilobe. This movement is 5.78 mm thick and features a micro-rotor. It operates at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offers 48 hours of power reserve. Both variants are paired with a black leather strap with a titanium pin buckle and are priced at EUR 10,800, equivalent to AED 43,000.
