Trilobe is proud to announce, for the second consecutive year, its preselection for the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG 2020) in the category “Petite Aiguille”.

« Hands less but with a sprinkle of magic »

The « Petite Aiguille » category is restricted to watches whose public price lies between 4’000CHF and 10’000CHF. The nomination in this category is a wink to Trilobe’s motto : “Hands less but with a sprinkle of magic”

« My soul has its secret, my watch has its story »

The preselected Trilobe watch is the watch “Les Matinaux Secret”, an emblematic model of the brand officially launched  in October 2019. This latest edition of “Les Matinaux” collection is an invitation to immortalize a precious moment in a poetic way. Each dial is personalized 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. 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.

At nightfall, 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.

This watch with a starry sky was the initial project of Gautier Massonneau, Trilobe’s founder. Facing such technical complexities, this project was developed in parallel with “Les Matinaux” collection. It took more than two years of R&D to implement the 3D growth of superluminova for the dial, a first in the watchmaking world, and to reach the result with a personalized watch in an intimate and poetic way.

Each Secret watch is developed with our new automatic integrated movement, the X-Centric calibre. Mirror of the brand identity, this calibre enhances the architectural geometry of this piece : a contemporary distinction with a refined design.

On November 9, 2019, the Only Watch auction took place under the patronage of Prince Albert II of Monaco, which raised 38,000,000 CHF to support research against Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Less than a year after its launch, Trilobe is very proud to announce its contribution to this sale. Initially estimated between 9,000 and 12,000 CHF the watch was sold for 26,000 CHF.

The unique bronze Trilobe edition “Les Matinaux” – Only Watch 2019 – is a tribute to all the communities that work in a bold way to find effective treatments for patients; a creation that translates life’s challenges into a message of hope by René Char, engraved on its back.

The 50 unique editions took part in an exceptional tour around the world, meeting collectors, end customers and the public loving fine watchmaking: Monaco, Dubai, Paris, London, Tokyo, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taipei and Geneva.

Trilobe is very proud to announce its preselection for the 19th Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) in the category “Petite Aiguille”.

The preselected Trilobe watch is the storm grey one, an emblematic model of the brand launched in December 2018.

This preselection in the category “Petite Aiguille” is, for Trilobe, a wink to one of its mottos: hands less, but with a sprinkle of magic.

The 84 preselected watches will participate to an exceptional tour around the world. These exhibitions will be an opportunity for Trilobe to meet collectors, end customers and an audience of fine watchmaking connoisseurs: Australia, Asia, Latin America, Middle East and Geneva…

After their world tour, the 84 watches will take up residence from 1st to 14th of November in the palatine rooms of the city’s largest museum, the Museum of Art and History (MAH), where for the past three years, the GPHG has been organizing a multi-faceted exhibition dedicated to the art and culture of watchmaking.

The final winners will be announced on November 7 at the awards ceremony.
