HYT H1 e H2

High-end Fluid Dynamics

March 11 ^th , when we published our first article about the HYT Watches brand, never could we have imagined that we would soon be seeing these timepieces live. We were wrong. That article (you may find HERE ) tells the full, incredible, story behind the birth of this very high-end watch (science) brand and, via a video, how hydrodynamics is serving time.

Not long ago, at Baselworld 2014 , we previewed the full 2014 HYT watches line-up, which includes some novelties that are still under embargo and that, for this reason, we cannot show you yet. But what I can say is that these timepieces, namely the HYT H1 and the HYT H2 , are truly unique.

They are unique not only for the idea that supports the product concept but for their intuitive meets high end technical complication: hour visulization through fluids is as easy as you might imagine it to be difficult. And watching the H1 's two reservoirs that alternate and activate the retrograde hour mechanism is phenomenal. The timepieces pictured here are the H1 RED2 , made in titanium and red gold and the H2 in Titanium and White Gold respectively. And although I suggest you take a look at our opening article to get an idea of the technical features and details, I do want to share with you the images about these two wonders which, I think, speak for themselves.
