aurice Lacroix has shown a remarkable talent for conceiving new and imaginative ways of indicating time, from rotating square and clover-shaped wheels to mysterious second hands that seemingly float mid-air. But most of all, Maurice Lacroix is known for retrograde displays. With this complication, one hand moves along an arcing track in linear fashion until it reaches its end point and then, within the blink of an eye, it flicks back to the start and begins its journey anew.
In 1999, Maurice Lacroix released the Calendar Retrograde and, three years later, in 2002, it unveiled the Double Retrograde, both featuring proprietary mechanisms. Now, Maurice Lacroix unveils the AIKONIC Master Triple Retrograde, a new model incorporating ‘innovative craftsmanship’ that unites cutting-edge materials and technology with the brand’s signature complication.

- Housed in a 43mm stainless steel case, uniting brushed and polished surfaces, the AIKONIC Master Triple Retrograde is fitted with a ceramic bezel endowed with the AIKON’s six double-width arms, a design that is also celebrated with the ceramic crown. Ceramic is scratchproof and won’t fade when exposed to UV light, ensuring the beauty of the watch will never diminish.
The anthracite dial, adorned with a vertical brush, embraces skeletonised elements with four apertures, each revealing a section of the movement’s rhodium-plated mainplate. The automatic ML291 Manufacture Calibre is also adorned with Côtes de Genève, a classical decoration composed of vertical lines. At 9 o’clock, an aperture plays host to a small seconds display.
The three remaining apertures are retrograde indications, displaying home time (GMT), the day and the date. All four apertures are endowed with circular-brushed tracks and silver powder printing, wonderfully contrasting with the adjacent vertical lines. Moreover, the retrograde indications all feature a blue hand and rack, while the associated bridges are rhodium-plated, circular-brushed and secured with polished screws.
