HYT or HYT @ Baselworld. Full review of H1

The main topic at Baselworld is of course HYT. fashion replica watches

Successfully launching a Buzz is like putting a spaceship into orbit, you need thrusters, but you also need astronauts. However, most of the time the buzz fails because one of the elements is missing...

Basel's previous marketing campaign was really well planned: a crew worthy of an A-team, a booth fit for Tron Uprising, and most importantly, a set with beautiful neon green decor.

Most importantly, the German-accented engineer explains how a machine that fills the watch's capillaries is key to the project's success. But by the way, which watch?

Regarding the general design, it reminds us of Darth Vader borrowing Flash Gordon's high quality cheap watches.
The HYT H1 is a round watch, approximately 45mm in diameter (actually 48.8mm, but it looks much smaller when worn on the wrist), available in a gold or titanium case, with an impressive top Deep raised crystals.

It is the opposite of the classic watch, oscillating between sports and science fiction;

The end result is truly original, refreshing the style of the round watch and proving it can still work. The feature that makes this piece so special is a pair of rhodium-plated pistons that push two liquids (one colorless, the other luminous green) into capillaries. For that matter, these pistons, and the feat of metallurgy they represent, are unfortunately overshadowed by fluid display systems. People will want them pushed to the forefront.

Luminous liquid showing retrograde hours between 7:15 and 5:45. Minutes are displayed on a sub-dial at 12 o'clock, power reserve at 3 o'clock and running indicator at 9 o'clock.

These hour-markers remind us of some Zenith Defy Extremes from the Nataf period; they contrast, in a somewhat anachronistic way, with the movement's opulent classic finish, the Chronode workshop (in Locle, headed by Jean-François Mojon) ) finished works. cheap watches for sale

The way the device works is very simple: a barrel (65 hours power reserve - 28800 V/h) drives a bellows which moves a liquid in a transparent tube.
The most impressive stage is of course when the retrograde indicator returns to zero: after a few seconds, the transparent fluid pushes the colored indicator back to its starting position.

The naughtiest among us will set the time more often than necessary because this sequence is so impressive.

Design-wise, it's the opposite of the Opus 12: while the Opus 12 has a super-complex display, using 27 hands, the HYT can (and should!) be pretty much content with its retrograde display; with a display-only aperture A scalloped dial would have a greater impact.
These two cheap watches for men were the highlight of Baselworld 2012 (with the Tudor couple)...

If the concept is as simple as any hydraulic technology, then development is a nightmare.
Start with a watchmaker's psychological barrier to putting liquid into a case (for example, Rolex's core business is water resistance). In this regard, the company Preciflex from Bienne has helped develop shock-proof hydraulic microcircuits with 7 patents filed by HYT.

Let’s be honest, even though the watch is a feat of technology, it’s a show-off item: imagine your neighbors on their private beach in Saint-Tropez, green (hydraulic) with envy because they don’t have a new kick-ass watch…

But there's a lot more to this limited perspective than what makes it so successful in the blogosphere. You all know watch lovers' penchant for obsolete technology? best replica Watches

At the bottom, the HYT is a godsend throwback to former mechanical watchmaking.
Before wheels, springs, and chains, people relied on the flow of water and its regularity to keep time, even when there was no sunlight. The clepsydra is the oldest ancestor of mechanical law.

Even though in the HYT H1 the liquid was used only for the display, future developments in hydraulic power applied to watchmaking could lead to entirely new complications and revive the "Upper Jurassic" era of watchmaking.

Aside from the "Back to the Future" aspect, despite the technical feat it represents, the watch's distinguishing feature is that it doesn't take itself too seriously...
