“Only Watch 2023” - Trilobe Réconciliation

Inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi, Trilobe's "Réconciliation" timepiece beautifully encapsulates the idea of embracing life's imperfections. Like Kintsugi, which repairs objects with gold, this watch highlights the philosophy that flaws hold a unique beauty. The timepiece, a new iteration of Une Folle Journée, symbolizes life's transformative journey.

Drawing from Kintsugi's ethos that scars hold valuable stories, "Réconciliation" delves into profound contemplation beyond its mechanics. Its visible cracks attest to the passage of time, akin to life's trials that mold us. The watch is a tribute to its own odyssey, intentionally broken and reformed, emerging even more precious.

Crafted by a skilled watchmaker, the impact marks on the movement and rings boast a handcrafted hammered finish. Symbolic rings bear gilded traces, achieved through meticulous hand application of gold leaves. "Réconciliation" is more than a timepiece; it's an ode to resilience, with a design speaking of transformation and embracing the journey of imperfections.
