T.T.Trunks Watch T1 Leather Box

T.T.Trunks know-how serving watchmaking aesthetes.

When we discuss watchmaking, we naturally think of Switzerland. Indeed, the Swiss Confederation has shone in the world of timepieces for more than three centuries now. Being established in Geneva, the cradle of watchmaking, the House of Grauer is sensitive to this industry which has considerably shaped the craft, industrial and social history of Switzerland.

Moreover, in 2019, we have joined forces with the young independent brand ArtyA to create a collection of watches combining the world of cigars and that of watchmaking. The result is "Son of Earth Tobacco". To create these unique creations, we went to Viñales in the province of Pinar del Río to harvest tobacco leaves by hand so that the craftsmen at Artya could place them at the heart of the watch, on the dial. After extensive testing, Yvan Arpa, founder and owner of the brand, says "the Tobacco will age as well as the timeless passion of its owner!"

Like the vast majority of Swiss watches, these pieces are powered by a self-winding caliber, which is wound by a mechanism that allows the barrel spring to be reset while the watch is being worn. Thus, the movements of the arm wind the mainspring by means of an oscillating weight rotating freely on its axis.

Today, thanks to T.T.Trunks, we are pleased to offer an elegant way to maintain and preserve them. Indeed, owners and collectors of mechanical self-winding watches are usually faced with the problem of not being able to keep all their watches on time. Indeed, this would imply having to wear them all regularly so that they accumulate sufficient power reserve and thus not stop.

T.T.Trunks, true to its philosophy of creating exceptional trunks and boxes, has created a box for the precious collections of watchmaking aesthetes.

To do this, the Parisian trunk-maker has teamed up with Swisskubik, a company that has specialised in rotating cases for 10 years. Together, they have designed a high-flying watch winder: the Watch T1 Leather Box!

Handcrafted in Switzerland, Swisskubik watchwinders are the result of a natural know-how from the watch industry... A watch winder has three main functions: the storage of the watch, the winding of the watch but also the permanent and homogeneous maintenance of the lubrication of the caliber. In fact, a watch that remains at a standstill for several months can no longer "self-lubricate", which can cause the caliber to seize up, resulting in its definitive stoppage.

Essential accessories for all watch lovers, Swisskubik watchwinders are recommended by the most prestigious Swiss watchmaking companies. By allowing the mechanisms of your timepieces never to be interrupted in their operation, they are the natural complement that ensures their longevity. In order to maintain its precision and prolong its life, an automatic watch must always be in motion.

A watch winder is a decorative object in its own right and a high-precision item that gives your watch the care it deserves when you are not wearing it. The one we are offering you today has been revisited and dressed by the craftsmen of the "Maison aux 3 rivets". In its solid wood case, meticulously covered with cowhide leather and enhanced by Nickel inserts, we find the watchwinder proudly enthroned.

The result is exceptional! The Watch T1 Leather Box appeals to a keen sense of aesthetics and a fascination for the technical prowess of the best Swiss watchmaking houses. A box for your precious timepiece to savour with your eyes, here, or to take with you to the end of the world while winding it. As if carried away by the heart of this exceptional box, it will be able to tell you about time.
