Among HYT's impressive collections is the “conical Tourbillon”, which includes remarkable pieces like the “Infinity Sapphire”, showcasing precision craftsmanship and design excellence. Now, the brand introduced the latest release, the “S1 Titanium Japan Limited Edition”, Exclusively available in japan.

The watch features a case made from silver and black-coated titanium. With a diameter of 48.8 mm and a thickness of 16.2 mm, the case showcases a brushed finish that enhances its modern aesthetic. The titanium crown is positioned between the 2 and 3 o'clock and is protected from below by a guard. It is equipped with a unique water-resistant design rated for 100 meters. Additionally, the case is complemented by a sapphire crystal, which not only protects the intricate dial but also provides a clear view of the innovative fluid display that characterizes HYT’s signature style.

The open worked dial displays a central minute hand, a small seconds hand in a sub dial located between 9 and 10 o’clock, and a power reserve indicator between 2 and 3 o’clock. The edges feature white printed numerals indicating the hours, which are represented by a colored liquid that moves over time within a tube. Upon reaching the end of its path, the liquid is gracefully reset in a retrograde motion, initiating a new 12-hour cycle. Each hand is elegantly designed in dark grey and white, with satin-finished surfaces adorned with white Super-LumiNova for improved visibility in low light. Surrounding the liquid tube are white printed numerals indicating the minutes.
