Good Things Come in Threes: Maurice Lacroix Introduces the Aikonic Master Triple Retrograde
Maurice Lacroix celebrates its 50th anniversary by unveiling the Aikonic Master Triple Retrograde, a watch that showcases the brand's expertise in retrograde displays. This steel timepiece features three retrograde indications in an urban design that highlights depth and intricate detailing. The anthracite dial includes a vertically brushed surface and skeletonized openings that reveal parts of the rhodium-plated movement beneath. Each retrograde function—home time, weekday, and date—is displayed through carefully designed apertures, ensuring clarity and balance in the watch's layout. Housed in a 43mm stainless-steel case, the Aikonic Master Triple Retrograde combines polished and brushed surfaces, providing a sophisticated aesthetic along with a water resistance of 100 meters. Its ceramic bezel, characterized by the Aikon collection's signature claws, enhances its bold look. The automatic ML291 caliber, visible through the sapphire caseback, offers a 38-hour power reserve. The watch is complemented by a black rubber strap featuring a patented easy-change system, allowing for effortless strap replacement. Priced at $6,900, this timepiece embodies both functionality and elegance, making it a notable addition to the luxury watch market.
