Trio
Model history
Presented in 2007 as part of the "Futur Antérieur" collection, the Trio (in its best-known version, the Grande Date) translates the riveted porthole aesthetic introduced by the Antiqua into a rectangular case, described by Halter himself as "a gold ingot for the wrist". The dial brings together a big date, a day/night indicator and off-centre small seconds, while the 390-component in-house VH205 movement features the same sapphire "mystery" rotor already seen on the Antiqua. The name Trio refers precisely to the three main indications brought together on the dial in a single compact and highly recognisable design.

Main versions
Halter has described the Trio's case as "a wearable gold ingot", curved to follow the anatomy of the wrist: an image that once again recalls his taste for industrial language, applied here to a rectangular shape unusual in the brand's catalogue.
