Pequignet presents a titanium "Concorde" with a diameter of 36 millimetres

Two years after the launch of the “Concorde” collection for its 50th anniversary, the French manufacturer presents another version made of grade 5 titanium.

However, it remains true to the design language of its steel predecessor. This includes, above all, the characteristic case shaped like the Place de la Concorde in Paris, which is further enhanced by the slightly darker titanium.

The strap is also made of this lightweight, robust, corrosion-resistant, and hypoallergenic material and, like the case, features a fine-grained finish with an anti-fingerprint coating. It also fits seamlessly into the 9.25" case thanks to its three lugs.

The monochrome design continues with the brushed matte dial in dark grey, which, unlike the 2023 model, dispenses with the date in favor of a minimalist design.

Luminescent hands with Superluminova of the highest luminosity class (X1) ensure comfortable readability day and night.

The in-house caliber Initial, the Pequignet-designed automatic movement with bidirectional winding and a 65-hour power reserve, ensures consistent precision. It is protected by the 36-millimeter case up to a pressure of 10 bar.

For the titanium “Concorde,” the movement was coated with ruthenium titanium gray, matching the color of the case, as it is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback.

The movement is assembled and adjusted with a high accuracy of between -4 and +6 seconds per day in the Peguignet workshop in Morteau, France. 72 percent of the components come from France—most from within a radius of less than 80 kilometers.
