Timeless Style and Artisan Details
T01 is the first Trussardi watches collection launched in preview in November 2014. The two Italian companies Trussardi and Morellato Group, both famous for their artisan workmanship, have established a partnership for the design and production of new Trussardi timepieces. The T01 collection is composed by ten men’s watches and eight women’s watches, all Swiss-made and water resistant up to 10 atm, with anti-reflective sapphire glass and hand-engraved steel. Elegance, dynamism and experimentation, on one hand, and great skill and innovation in watch-making, on the other, have led to the creation of watches with sleek, subtle design, enriched with precious elements and details that reflect the style of the brand of the Greyhound.
The understated and refined ladies’ watch collection features bracelet watches with a butterfly clasp and push button and watches with a leather watch band and prong buckle, which is a signature detail of Trussardi accessories. The 36 mm case has a double level and distinctive oval shape reminiscent of the Trussardi logo. The dials reflect the style of the brand through different elements and symbols such as the Greyhound at 12 o’clock or the historical print designed over 100 years ago for the lining of Trussardi trunks. Style and experimentation can also be found in the combination of colours and materials. Steel is paired up with a refined dusty blue dial, while a black crocodile leather watch band adds a distinctive touch to an elegant rose gold and diamond case. Strong colour is the choice for versions with a yellow or rose gold PVD finish or with a soft baby blue finish and leather watch band.
Careful attention to detail is also a distinctive sign of the men’s watch collection with dynamic style and a strong character. Like the ladies’ watches, the 44 mm case has the typical Trussardi oval shape and comes in shiny and brushed metal finishes.
A screw-back case and screw-on crown, applied indexes, and a universal calendar are the main characteristics of Trussardi T01 Gent timepieces that are available in simple watch or chronograph versions with a bracelet or watch band, always with a butterfly clasp with push button. References to the stylistic elements of the brand are strong, such as the Trussardi herringbone motif on the dial and the instantly recognizable Greyhound on the seconds hand or on the dial at six o’clock. Trussardi’s effortless elegance and timeless style are in evidence in more sporty models with a top-stitched leather watch band available in military green or dark brown or in an unusual GMT version for true globetrotters. With the launch of this first watch collection, Trussardi – which is synonymous of effortless elegance and understated luxury, combined with great traditions – and Morellato Group, a point of reference in the watch market, want to celebrate Italian excellence around the world. The new Trussardi timepieces express the heritage of over a century and the typical Italian manufacturing knowhow of the two companies.
