TRES 24 – three hands – 24 hours

Detailed view of the TRES 24 on a device with rotary controls.
A wristwatch with a 24-hour display may seem unusual or even “complicated” at first glance. On closer inspection, however, it quickly becomes clear that the 24-hour display is the most consistent way to represent time. After all, an Earth day has 24 hours, not just twelve. The conventional 12-hour display is simply an abstraction in favour of more convenient timekeeping. Those comfortable taking in twice as many numerals gain a particularly logical representation of the times of day with our sun-synchronised 24-hour watches. Unlike its sister model, the UNO 24, the TRES 24 also enables time to be read to the nearest minute. We offer our 24-hour three-hand watches in three dial versions and two case sizes: the “TRES 24 plus titan” in the new three-part 45 mm titanium case, and the significantly smaller and even lighter TRES 24 Titan in the three-part 40 mm titanium case. The new models of the second TRES 24 generation are distinguished both by their sophisticated case construction with three titanium alloys optimised for their properties and by a substantially calmer, clearer dial and hand design than the previous version.
