The Second-Generation Trilobe Une Folle Journée: A Redesigned Case and In-House Movement
The second-generation Trilobe Une Folle Journée retains its distinctive time display, with three off-centred rings for the hours, minutes and seconds rotating counterclockwise around a fixed pointer. Its redesigned barrel-shaped case has integrated lugs and sharper lines, measuring 40.3mm across and 18.25mm thick, with a domed sapphire crystal. It is available in grade 5 titanium or 18k rose gold, with blue, black and grey versions featuring colour-matched striped rubber straps. The watch now uses Trilobe’s in-house X-Nihilo automatic calibre, replacing the first generation’s X-Centric movement. Partially produced near Paris and assembled in the brand’s Paris atelier, it has a central rotor, a 4Hz balance and a 42-hour power reserve. The titanium version is part of the permanent collection and costs EUR 23,500 excluding taxes; the gold version’s price has not been disclosed.
Buying Time Analysis: The second-generation Trilobe Une Folle Journée is significant for pairing its distinctive three-dimensional rotating time display with a redesigned case and the brand’s in-house X-Nihilo movement.
