At a star-studded launch atop Mumbai’s Bastian at the Top, Titan Company Ltd. introduced Stellar 3.0 – its boldest luxury collection yet, headlined by the limited-edition Wandering Hours priced at Rs 1,79,995. Only 500 units of this mechanical masterpiece exist, each featuring a revolutionary display where the hour hand itself glides across the dial, towing twin rotating discs along a curved minute track. Forged from crystallised titanium with an otherworldly grain and paired with a high-grade FKM rubber strap, the piece fuses extraterrestrial aesthetics with Swiss-level engineering precision. “This isn’t just a watch – it’s India placing horological art on the global stage,” declared Kuruvilla Markose, CEO of Titan Watches & Wearables.

The Stellar 3.0 series, themed “Inspired by the Infinite,” transforms cosmic phenomena into wearable art. The Ice Meteorite incorporates authentic fragments of the 120,000-year-old Muonionalusta meteorite in its dial, while Aurora Caelum captures the ethereal green shimmer of the Northern Lights. Mahendra Chauhan, Head of Design, explained the collection’s evolution: “Stellar 1 explored stellar birth, Stellar 2 the supernova – now Stellar 3 celebrates celestial motion and the poetry of wandering time.” Titan’s in-house R&D has achieved feats once monopolised by Swiss ateliers, including the Ultra Slim – one of the world’s thinnest mechanical watches at 3.3 mm, priced at just Rs 75,000 – democratising haute horlogerie without compromising craftsmanship.

Defying the celebrity-obsessed luxury playbook, Titan has deliberately shunned brand ambassadors for Stellar 3.0. “We’ve moved past borrowed stardom,” Markose stated. “The product must speak.” That confidence is backed by results: Titan’s ultra-premium Nebula Jalsa series, with hand-painted dials taking two months each and priced above Rs 40 lakh, sold out its entire 10-piece run in record time. From a brand once synonymous with affordable quartz, Titan now commands a growing portfolio above Rs 25,000, signaling a seismic shift up the luxury value chain.

With international expansion accelerating and smartwatch innovation running parallel to analogue excellence, Titan is rewriting India’s horological narrative. “We’re not competing with Switzerland – we’re redefining accessible luxury on our terms,” Markose asserted. Available exclusively at select Titan boutiques and titan.co.in, Stellar 3.0 isn’t merely telling time – it’s proving that Indian ingenuity can orbit the same rarefied space as the Swiss masters, one cosmic tick at a time.
