Titan Makes History: Two Edge Models Nominated for GPHG
Titan, India's horological pioneer, has etched its name in the history of watchmaking by securing dual nominations at the esteemed Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG). This unprecedented opportunity is leading India into the global horological spotlight, marking a historic moment for the nation's watchmaking industry. Two avant-garde embodiments of the Titan Edge collection ― the Ultraslim and the Squircle ― are the proud ambassadors vying for coveted GPHG awards. These timepieces, each a testament to innovation and artisanal mastery, encapsulate the essence of the Titan Edge philosophy.
Titan Edge Squircle: A Geometric Masterpiece
The Titan Edge Squircle, a 10-piece limited-edition black matte beauty, redefines horological aesthetics with its innovative squircle shape, merging the essence of a square and that of a circle. Housed in a sleek ceramic case, which is 4.4 mm thick, and completed on a bracelet, the timepiece exudes modern luxury. A tangible ripple, meticulously machined onto the sapphire crystal, adds depth to the vertical satin dial, showcasing the brand's attention to detail.
Powered by the Edge Calibre T9081, a slim quartz movement, the Squircle offers hours and minutes of functionality. This timepiece, with its 30-metre water resistance and double push-button butterfly clasp, is more than a watch; it's a statement of contemporary design and engineering prowess.
Titan Edge Ultraslim: Redefining Elegance
Another limited-edition masterpiece, the Titan Edge Ultraslim is a testament to horological ingenuity, merging minimalist aesthetics with cutting-edge engineering. Clad in a robust yet refined Grade 5 titanium case, measuring a mere 3.3 mm in thickness, the timepiece exudes understated elegance.
Its innovative single-hand disc movement, housed within this svelte frame, redefines the conventional approach to timekeeping. The dial, adorned with a fine microblasted finish, complements the watch's overall sophistication. Coupled with a supple Italian calf leather strap secured by a pin buckle, the Ultraslim offers both comfort and style. Water-resistant for up to 30 metres, this timepiece is a harmonious blend of form and function, embodying the essence of contemporary watchmaking.
