AT ONE PRECISE MOMENT IN TIME, TRADITION CHOOSES BETWEEN A PATH TO NOSTALGIA AND ONE TO EVOLUTION. IT’S CALLED THE PRESENT. THE LATEST H20 BY HYT VISUALIZES A UNIQUE JOURNEY OF CLASSICAL HOROLOGY TO A RADICAL DESIGN DESTINATION. A FAMILIAR AND RESPECTED VOCABULARY OF PALE GREEN LUMINESCENT DIGITS, MARKERS AND HAND TIPS CONFIDENTLY NAVIGATES ITS WAY THROUGH A CONTEXT OF BOLD MODERNITY. THE INTRINSIC FLOW OF TIME RESTS IN THE CAPABLE HANDS OF AN EXCLUSIVE APRP MECHANICAL MOVEMENT AND A PATENTED MICRO-FLUIDIC MODULE. THESE WORK TOGETHER TO ENSURE THAT THE NOW IS CONTINUALLY AWARE OF ITS PIVOTAL POSITION. THIS IS WHERE YESTERDAY FLOWS SEAMLESSLY INTO TOMORROW.

THE APPEARANCE OF THE PREDOMINANTLY BLACK H20 TIMEPIECE ECHOES A VERY CURRENT CONVERSATION IN THIS LIMITED EDITION OF EIGHT PIECES. IT TAKES PLACE BETWEEN ELAPSED TIME, WITH ALL THE EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE IT HAS NURTURED, AND THE PROSPECT OF DISCOVERY PROMISED BY WHAT LIES AHEAD. HYT HAS CHOSEN A HIGHLY RESISTANT BLACK LIQUID TO DOCUMENT THE PAST, SALUTING SERENITY.

TRANSPARENCY IS KEY TO THIS HYT SERIES’ PRESENTATION OF TIME’S PASSAGE. THE MECHANICAL AND FLUIDIC DIALOGUE IS STAGED FOR ALL TO SEE THROUGH A TALL, DOMED SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL AND SEE-THROUGH CASE BACK. AS WITH A SMOOTH PEBBLE, TIME’S EFFECTS ENHANCE RATHER THAN DILUTE THE WATCH’S BEAUTY. THE HIGH-TECH CALIBER INTEGRATES MICROBLASTED TITANIUM BRIDGES, BLACK DLC COATING AND SATIN FINISHES. TWO RHODIUM-PLATED BELLOWS MODERATE THE PERFORMANCE TO PERFECTION. EACH GLANCE OFFERS A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON TIME, ITS ORIGINS AND ITS POSSIBILITIES.

Faqs

How does an HYT watch work?

Two flexible reservoirs with a capillary attached at each end. In one, a coloured liquid; in the other, a transparent one. Keeping them apart is the repulsion force of the molecules in each fluid. The two reservoirs at 06:00 also referred to as bellows are made of a highly resistant, flexible alloy. Watchmaking is used to activate the system via a piston that drives the bellow on the left (the active bellow). When the active below is compressed, the second expands, and vice versa, resulting in the movement of the liquids in the capillary. As the hours go by, the coloured liquid advances. The meniscus marks the separation point between the two liquids, indicating the hour. At 06:00, the coloured liquid moves backwards, returning to its original position in what is known as a ‘rewind’.

ONCE UPON A TIME, PHILOSOPHY SET SCIENCE IN MOTION

ONCE UPON A TIME, PHILOSOPHY SET SCIENCE IN MOTION

HYT tells time’s stories and these are always tales of the unexpected. Creative tension between craftsmanship and technology generates operational and esthetic energy.

Brand Heritage

A colored liquid documents the recent past; a transparent fluid indicates the foreseeable future. Their meeting point is a meniscus, aka the now. Today HYT is an ecosystem that unites science, hi-technology, philosophy, art and design. Based in Neuchâtel, at the heart of the traditional Swiss watchmaking region, a dedicated team of 43 individuals makes liquid time real time. Their radical wristwatches harmoniously incorporate a mechanical watch movement as the trigger to the fluid propulsion. They make total sense of time – time and time again.

The rest is history. To be precise, it’s history that began 3,400 years ago with the Clepsydras, or water clocks, of the Pharaohs. These so-called “water thieves” transported H2O from one container to another to measure elapsed or “stolen” time. This meaningful visualization of the transition of time seemingly disappeared until 2012, when HYT broke new scientific ground, inventing a wristwatch integrating a patented fluidic module.
