Milus TIRION TriRetrograde Seconds Skeleton Titanium

High-tech craftsmanship and eye-catching second hands

BaselWorld 2009 – Since 1919, the tradition rich Swiss brand Milus strives to achieve an artistic way to measure the moment and has beautifully represented the outstanding Swiss watchmaking skill of mechanical finesse, graceful movement and exclusivity. Milus seamlessly combines unique design with the most precious materials. Every product conveys a sensual sense of freedom and the Highly Personal credo of the brand – the luxury of being totally oneself. This philosophy is dedicated to every day of the year, any hour of the day and to all cherished moments.

With the TIRION TriRetrograde Seconds Skeleton Titanium – Milus has once again captured the idea of moment and playfulness by creating an exceptional timepiece. Dynamic, sportive and powerful – the combination of aesthetics and mechanical finesse is impressively realized by the TIRION TriRetrograde Seconds Skeleton Titanium. The exact rhythm of the retrograde seconds function in three sectors of 20 seconds each is given by a Swiss quality mechanical movement in an exclusive special version with automatic winding.

The strong, imposing round case in titanium forms the perfect framework for the creative core elements of the dial. It is built up of two layers: the movement base is covered by genuine carbon fibre and the second level consists of a plate in the same high-tech material. Here, dynamically placed and easily readable, are the Arabic hour numerals and indices. Positioned at 6 o’clock, the large date is displayed to its full advantage

The heart of the dial and the watch is formed by the round inner skeleton area. This is where the three seconds-display sectors with the eye-catching and stunning second hands in the shape of an oscillating rotor are placed. Positioned in three separate circle segments at 6, 10 and 2 o’clock, they work in ‘flying relay’ clockwise.

Starting at 6 o’clock, the first hand in the shape of an oscillating rotor performs its spectacular 20 seconds ride and swings instantly back to the right to its starting position. Going clockwise, the next seconds hand at 10 o’clock followed by the third at 2 o’clock accomplish the same journey. This alternation tirelessly repeats itself, giving the overall impression of a magic and fascinating dance portrayed by these outstandingly shaped seconds hands.

Superlative technology lays bare its secrets: the dial of the TIRION TriRetrograde Seconds Skeleton Titanium displays the unique precision of the watch, allowing an exclusive look at the inner life of the automatic movement through the opening at its centre. Lovers of consummate craftsmanship will be captivated. And this timepiece shows off its talents at the back of the case too, in that the round convex sapphire crystal window offers a view of the movement.

A comfortable strap in the finest leather with carbon look completes the dynamic sporty and appearance of the watch.

An exceptional function combined with extravagant design and finest Swiss watchmaking art: with the TIRION TriRetrograde Seconds Skeleton Titanium, Milus honours the passage of time – for every second counts.
