Once might be lucky, twice a coincidence, but threetimes is a pattern. Three is a number heavy with symbolism and meaning; threeencompasses beginning,middle and end; birth, life, and death; past, present and future.

Triad by Speake-Marin − the first piece in a new MechanicalArt collection − celebratesthe number three with triple hour-minute indications over an open dialrevealing the mechanical art within. Eye-catching, heat-blued Foundation-stylehands pirouette in formation over gilded topping-tool-shaped wheels forming thepoints of an equilateral triangle around a smaller central topping-tool-shapedseconds wheel.

The golden wheelsstand out in stunning contrast against the hand-finished movement plate, which hasbeen rhodium plated to provide a distinguished lustre. Indications and their mechanicsare harmoniously framed by gold text around the perimeter of the dial and the18k gold bezel.

Striking white,three-dimensional applied numbers mark the hours at the four Cardinal points ofthe dial: 3,6, 9 and 12.

In music, a Triad isa three-note chord. Three notes played simultaneously to provide a single soundrich in emotion, depth and meaning and this is exemplified by '3 NOTES 1MEANING' written around the bottom right of the dial ring.

Turning Triad over,the opulent, esoteric symbolism of the dial side is balanced by the restrained monochrometechnicality of the Eros 2 automatic winding movement. The silver and grey ofthe movement is punctuated in an explosion of colour by the bright blue mysteryrotor in the form of Speake-Marin's iconic topping-tool motif.

Naturally for awatch called Triad, the automatic winding rotor has three arms. Bold textaround the perimeter of the case back is in three sections: Speake-Marin − ThePiccadilly − Limited Edition of 88.







 


It is impossible to overstate thesignificance of the number 3 throughout history: All of the major religionsplace importance on 3; the Chinese believe 3 to be a perfect number; there are3 primary colours (red, green and blue); in numerology 3 symbolises growth; inmathematics 3 is both the first Fermat prime and the first Mersenne prime; andthe totality of human capability canbe summarised by the triumvirate of Thought, Word or Deed.

Triad is a limited edition of 88 pieces instainless steel with 18k red gold bezel.
