My soul has its secret, my watch has its story.

“Secret” Edition is an invitation to immortalise a precious moment in a poetic way. The starry sky is a freeze frame for a selected point in life: a delicate way of entrusting its receiver with a powerful message of love, a happy memory, a life project, an open secret, for an intimate creation.

Montres automatiques Trilobe de la collection Les Matinaux Secret avec un cadran sur-mesure : une carte du ciel réalisée en impression 3D de superluminova

A unique piece

Each dial is personalised and made bespoke: a map of the sky with the stars from the day, time and place that are dear to you, thus, making each watch a unique piece. A subtle way to free time, from a happy or promising moment, and to freeze it for eternity.

Choose your moment

An easy way to carry a secret

At nightfall, after being activated by a UV light, the drawn stars come to life and light in order to illuminate the chosen moment, thus suspending the passage of time. A new invitation to free oneself from time. A unique and meaningful timepiece.

A first in watchmaking

Each starry sky dial is custom-made through transfer of the stars. Each star linked to a constellation is manually filled, one by one, with superluminova. These light up after being exposed to a UV light.

Trilobe's Initial Project

This watch with a starry sky was Trilobe’s initial project. Facing such technical complexities, this project was developed in parallel with the “Les Matinaux” collection. It took two years of R&D to reach the final result with a personalised watch in an intimate and poetic way.

Creation and availability

Indicate a date, a place and a time under “a lucky star” and we obtain the position of the stars for this place and this precise moment. Delivery time for each unique piece: 4 months after receipt of the order.

Vue de jour de la montre Secret, une montre automatique Trilobe avec un cadran sur-mesure : une carte du ciel réalisée par croissance 3D de superluminova

Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève Nomination

The Secret watch was nominated by the jury of the GPHG 2020 edition in the category “Petite Aiguille”.

A precious enclosure

To the Secret watch, Trilobe has now added an extra layer of personalisation: a starry case. Under a cover made of bluish sycamore and cedar wood marquetry, a sky map, the result of Trilobe innovation, becomes a decorative element of a precious enclosure. A bespoke starry sky reflecting the day time and place that are dear to you, thus making each case a unique piece.

An aromatic purpose

Initially designed to house the watch, this case can also take on a more aromatic role. Indeed, this large blue lacquered box can accommodate up to forty Robusto cigars in the best conditions thanks to the integration of a humidifier and a needle hygrometer. For cigar lovers, this exceptional box is the result of a unique collaboration with the Parisian cabinetmaker Elie Bleu.

Trilobe x Elie Bleu

Elie Bleu puts his creativity at the service of his productions, working with noble materials and respecting the traditions of which he has been the guarantor for nearly 45 years, and for the first time in a personalised work. Specialised in precious boxes, the craftsmen and manufacturer perpetuate the know-how of master cabinet makers.

Present the watch to your clients

A unique piece
Each starry sky dial is custom-made through transfer of the stars and corresponds to a moment (day, time and place) dear to the client.

A piece filled with emotion
The client gives us a day, a time, a place, corresponding to a precious moment of its life (a wedding, a birth, an adventure…). We take a picture of the starry sky corresponding to this special moment et we engrave it on the watch. Thus, the watch tells the client’s story. The Secret watch is a subtle way to free time, from a happy or promising moment, and to freeze it for eternity.

An innovating piece
We determine the position of the stars through an algorithm of 1600 constellations, around a repetitive 4-year cycle. This algorithm is base on the book “Calculs astronomiques à l’usage des amateurs” (Jean Meeus, Société astronomique de France, Paris, 1986). Thus, we are capable to determine the sky of a moment in the past but also in the future… which is ideal for a wedding watch for example. Each star linked to a constellation is manually filled with superluminova by a craftsman These light up after being exposed to a UV light, and come to life in order to illuminate the chosen moment, thus suspending the passage of time. Due to the technical complexity of the dial, 2 years of R&D were necessary to conceive the Secret watch.
