Trilobe is very proud to support once again Only Watch in its 2021 edition. Since the first edition in 2005, Only Watch has come a long way in accelerating the knowledge of Duchenne muscular dystrophy that affect hundreds of thousands of people.

It is to honour this extraordinarily ambitious project that the Trilobe watchmaking House and the Sculptor Daniel Buren have decided to offer a unique and meaningful collaboration, a singular creation.

« La Réciproque » – Trilobe by Daniel Buren

The reciprocal is the action that subjects perform on each other: two reciprocal forces that materialise into a unique artistic creation. Daniel Buren and Trilobe have fun with this encounter: opposing forms and colours, disturbing the view, questioning the mind. Art and watchmaking oppose and meet each other, in reciprocal forces.

It is from this desire for reciprocity that the Trilobe by Daniel Buren project was born: to combine a young watchmaking House with one of the most recognised Artist on the international scene. Around a scarlet beating heart, designed as the scarlet beating heart of the work, imagine a duality between the technicality of the watchmaker and the unique proposal of the Artist in an immediate dialogue with the «X-Centricity» of Trilobe. It is, above all, the exhilarating prospect to realise a unique artwork to serve a great cause.

The Trilobe clock by Daniel Buren is a singular work of art in which the eccentric vision of the Artist cannot be understood without the technical expertise of the Watchmaker. It also remains faithful to the tradition of excellence in watchmaking and offers us the immutable and inimitable ticking of the great clocks.

Between patience and determination, the Trilobe project by Daniel Buren is a true reciprocal.

Maison Trilobe is very pleased to announce its launch in Germany, in partnership with CPR Climax Public Relations. We are joining prestigious brands that are promoting their know-how and the excellence of their expertise through the voice of Thomas Glaue.

The deployment of Trilobe in Germany is part of an international development strategy. After the United States, Hong Kong and Mexico, Trilobe is delighted to be able to count Germany in its distribution network.

“Look, Fans! No Hands!”

In her article, Ming Liu salutes innovative designers who are reinventing the way time is read. Among these designers, the author cites Trilobe, explaining that “abandoning hands altogether is becoming increasingly popular, giving watchmaking and the art of telling time a new – and cerebral – look.”

Trilobe was born from a desire to differentiate itself: the proposal of a unique and excellent watch that does not exceed 10,000 euros. Founded in 2019, the House chose the name Trilobe in reference to a timeless and universal architectural motif, and made it its emblem by using it as a time indicator on its watches.

After the Les Matinaux collection, Trilobe presented a new model in early April: Nuit Fantastique. The latter retains the hour ring but the minutes appear in an aperture, and the seconds wheel alternates between a centre in clous de Paris and an azure ring.

Trilobe’s vision of luxury is that of taking time, freeing it and giving it value by reversing the reference point for reading the time. The hands are fixed and it is time that becomes mobile.

In this New York Times article, Ming Liu salutes the audacity of this new watchmaking trend of which Trilobe is a part, alongside Ressence, Eone, Bulgari, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Rado.

Trilobe get the incredible opportunity to participate in Watches and Wonders Geneva 2021. It is a great honour to exchange with the greatest houses that have forged the excellence of watchmaking know-how. This 100% digital trade show is placed under the aegis of union and openness, and for Trilobe, launched on December 17, 2018, this represents a very beautiful new adventure.

« One must dare to tell time without hands »

In his article « Hands of time », Judikael Hirel traces the history of hands that dress up the dial of our watches for centuries. These hands have a major role in watchmaking as indicators of time.

Many different hands’ models have distinguished themselves over the centuries and are sometimes as well known as the watch they dress up. But even though they stand out with their design and their story, they all have one thing in common : their mobility.

Trilobe wished to go against traditional moving hands by conceiving fixed indicators that allow time to run free on the dial of the watch. For centuries, time was frozen under moving hands. Now, with Trilobe, time is liberated. Hence our credo « Time Liberated ».

These indicators, which strictly speaking are not hands, are in shape of trefoils, a timeless and universal architectural motif made of three circular arcs, that echoes the three pillars of time: Hours, Minutes and Seconds.

In this article, Judikael Hirel salutes the boldness of Trilobe who “dares” to offer a new way to tell time, without hands, allowing the brand to distinguish itself in the Fine Watchmaking competitive environment.

Trilobe is pleased to be present at the 14^th edition of the international watch exhibition Alta Relojeria (SIAR), alongside 34 other fine watchmaking brands.

For the 9^th consecutive year, the fair will take place at the St Regis Hotel, from October 20 to 22 of this year.

The SIAR belongs to the circle of watch exhibition with an international reputation. It is chosen both by major brands and independent ones to meet their final customers, the south-american retailers and the local press.

Meeting point of the watch industry in Latin America, this fair attracts collectors, aficionados, and journalists from across the country as well as surrounding countries.

Trilobe joins the ranks of many prestigious independent watch brands participating in the exhibition, a step in the international development of the brand, one month after signing a distribution contract in the United States.

Its presence at the SIAR is an opportunity to develop its reputation on the South and Central American market, by presenting the brand both to professionals from the watch industry and watch enthusiasts. On this occasion the brand will also unveil its latest developments launched throughout the year 2020.

We look forward to seeing you at the SIAR exhibition:

From 20 to 22 october
 11AM to 21PM
At the St Regis hotel, 1^st floor
Paseo de la Reforma #439, Colonia Cuauhtémoc, México
