Two New Limited Editions Of The HYT H20
Sculpture gives mass meaning. The latest H20 from HYT looks to this visual art that operates in three dimensions to shed light on the essence of time. Viewed from any aspect, the sculpted timepiece unveils new angles on time, while colored and clear liquids keep its essential flow permanently present. Second by second, further layers of time are revealed, witnessed and anticipated.
The all-black color-scheme, right through to the coating of the movement’s bridges, intensifies the visual drama between mystery and transparency. this intrinsic interplay of time and space brings to life the core HYT belief that time is defined by content and context.
In these two new limited editions of the H20, the three-dimensional quality of the design acquires additional visual tension. A striking contrast between black diamond-like carbon coating and the domed crystal hosting apparently floating digits. The whole presents an architectural entity, tempting the eye to take anew perspective on time – and watchmaking. As blue or red liquid trace the path of time’s recent journey, clear fluid beyond the meniscus in the capillary creates curiosity at what potentially lies ahead.
Within the safe walls of the H20, a carefully curated, highly technical performance takes place. This co features a patented fluidic module and a mechanical movement exclusively developed for HYT by APRP.
Seamless transmission between these two protagonists is assured by the conversion of rotation into linear motion via a cam-follower system. This timepiece represents the culmination of a quest to define and capture the essence of time. its conclusion is clear: the time is now – always.
