Also Superbe is double clamp and it's a rebranded Sugino Mighty according to Velobase.

Your criteria were 27mm, more adjustable than a SR LaPrade and better looking which describes both the Superbe and XC. Both nuts on top side of clamp (see photo I posted, not mine borrowed) fit down into recesses so you don’t need a wrench to hold them. The level of finish certainly seems well above Sugino’s offerings too.
