For those not already familiar, SpaceOne was founded in 2023 by entrepreneur Guillaume Laidet and independent watchmaker Théo Auffret as a neo-futuristic watchmaking workshop dedicated to making stunning haute horlogerie affordable.

SpaceOne’s second release, the Tellurium, features an in-house complication — developed and assembled in the brand’s Paris workshop — centered on a heliocentric Tellurium-type planetary wheel linked to a simple calendar, indicating the date (jumping) and current month (sliding).

Its 42mm titanium case defies established geometry, resembling a smooth, silver pebble, curved on both sides and topped by a domed sapphire crystal. The dial is made of mesmerizing aventurine.

While the SpaceOne is not the first brand to offer a timepiece with a telluric complication, it may be the first to do it at such an approachable price point (€2,990) and in such a groundbreaking, futuristic design. The Tellurium is available in Blue and Black Titanium; each colorway is limited to 200 pieces.
