One of favorite Paris companies, T.T. Trunks, has unveiled two new personalized products for watch aficionados. T.T. Trunks is a young and innovative luxury goods company specializing in the creation of high standard furniture trunks. It was founded less than a year ago by Damien Finot and Julien Trossat, two Paris-based entrepreneurs and friends – and former Louis Vuitton project managers. Here’s the official news:
On the occasion of the MADISON AVENUE WATCH WEEK taking place in New York APRIL 11 – 16, the French House T.T.TRUNKS revealed in sneak preview two new designs: the TRAVEL WATCH and the WEEKEND WATCH trunks. Those creations combining elegancy, modernity, style and authenticity were exposed at the OC Concept Store on Madison Avenue for an exclusive discovery.
The French House of Trunk Makers, combining traditional know-how and elegant design, conceives modern trunks, personalized or made-to-measure. After designing the NEW DANDY and the Mademoiselle trunks earlier this year, T.T.TRUNKS unveils two new creations, dedicated to watch collectors and to those who are fascinated by the luxury
watchmaking world, the TRAVEL WATCH and the WEEKEND WATCH trunks, sophisticated as well as functional.
Julien Trossat was at the OC Concept Store on Madison Avenue in New York on Wednesday the 13th of April, in order to reveal T.T.TRUNKS latest creations during a week celebrating watchmaking passion, whose fans would have come all the way from the International Show in Basel to Manhattan.
The TRAVEL WATCH TRUNK opens up on three programmable “swiss-kubik” winders (to wind automatic watches and preserve their energy). Behind those winders, a storage space has been imagined so that you could slip your belongings such as your wallet or coin purse, key holders, passport or any other item you may bear in your pockets.
In the lower part, the first drawer is a storage casket where three watches can be arranged separately and laid down flat. Detachable and leather lined boundaries protect but also emphasize each watch. The second drawer has been made especially for cufflinks or any other tiny object, while the third one shelter eight removable watch rolls.
The whole, as a T.T.TRUNKS creation, is customized. Owners can choose between several materials and colors (more than 300 references were directly selected by the founders of the French Trunk Maker House).
Dimensions: Height: 423 mm x width: 434 mm x depth: 265 mm
Watch Trunk Travel (3 watch winders): 14650 US$ (INCL SHIPMENT, IMPORT TAXES, EXCL VAT)
The WEEKEND WATCH TRUNK also opens up on a “swiss-kubik” winder. Two detachable drawers located on both side of the trunk enable to arrange two wristwatches. Under those drawers an individual watch case you can stow in the interior pocket of your jacket. It cans be both slipped in and took off the drawer easily thanks to a leather strap.
Dimensions: Height: 210 mm x width: 210 mm x depth: 170 mm Trunk Week End (1 watch winder): 4810 US$ (INCL SHIPMENT, IMPORT TAXES, EXCL VAT)
