Trilobe Château Trente-Deux Debuts With Wine Gift
In this article
Trilobe has announced the Château Trente-Deux, reference 3201BDX, a new model in its Trente-Deux collection, according to a Fratello article by Nina Scally published on October 17, 2026. The Trente-Deux collection debuted in 2025. Fratello describes it as Trilobe’s first family of watches with an integrated bracelet and a movement produced fully in the brand’s Paris manufacture. The Château Trente-Deux is priced at €17,500 excluding tax. It is limited to 100 initial pieces before joining the permanent collection.
Winemaking References And Dial Layout
The Château Trente-Deux draws its design inspiration from fine French winemaking. Fratello notes that Château refers to the French-winemaking-inspired dial color. Trente-Deux is a nod to the address of Trilobe’s workshop in Paris. The dial is deep burgundy. Its finish is a matte sunburst, also described as matte sunray burgundy. The hour and minute discs have a finely grained finish. The seconds wheel has a sharp azurage finish with a crisp Clous de Paris guilloché center. An applied steel chapter ring frames the entire display. The chapter ring alternates between mirror-polished and satin-brushed surfaces.
The time display uses three rotating discs for hours, minutes, and seconds. All three move counterclockwise against the dial. Trilobe’s patented layout places three rotating rings moving past fixed pointers on a single plane. The rotating outer ring tracks the hours. The minutes and seconds use a decentralized figure-eight layout on the left side of the dial.
Case, Bracelet, And Daily Use
The case measures 39.5mm in diameter. It measures 46.18mm in length and 10.15mm in thickness. It is made from 316L stainless steel. The case consists of seven individual components. Its finishing alternates mirror-polished surfaces with satin brushing and microblasted areas. The fluted bezel has polished ridges set against microblasted grooves. A sapphire crystal covers the dial. The case back combines 316L stainless steel with sapphire crystal and is affixed with six screws. The watch is water resistant to 5 bar, or 50 meters. Its functions are time in hours, minutes, and seconds.
The bracelet is an integrated 316L stainless steel design. It has satin-brushed and polished links, polished bevels, and a butterfly clasp.
