Introducing HYT Unveils Three New Additions to the T1 Series

HYT is a Swiss independent watchmaker renowned for its groundbreaking use of fluidic technology in timekeeping, and stands apart in the world of horology. Instead of traditional hands or digital displays, HYT timepieces rely on fluid dynamics to indicate time, imparting a distinctly futuristic and avant-garde appearance to their watches. 

This year marks the brand's 12th anniversary, and to celebrate, HYT introduced the T1 SERIES, a fresh collection that features a smaller case size and a new design, complemented by an expanded color spectrum. In line with this milestone, and on the occasion of Geneva Watch Days 2024, HYT is launching three new additions to the T1 Series under the name Millésime editions, available in striking purple, green, and chocolate hues.

Like their predecessors, the new trio in the Millésime editions features a 45mm case diameter with a thickness of 17.2mm, and still are the smallest-sized releases among HYT's collections. The green and purple editions are housed in titanium cases, while the chocolate model is distinguished by an 18k rose gold case. All three versions incorporate black DLC titanium details on the case sides, including a screw-down titanium crown positioned at 2 o'clock, and the dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating that ensures clear visibility of the dial.

The vertically brushed dial features hour markers around the outer edge, while the inner minute scale is a glass tube filled with liquid—red for the chocolate and green variants, and black for the purple variant. A single center hand, coated with Super-LumiNova, indicates the minutes. Additionally, the dial includes a power reserve indicator positioned at 2:30.

Beneath the sapphire crystal caseback resides the Caliber 501-CM, a hand-wound movement featuring a pair of bellows that drive the liquid through the glass capillary tubes. The movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) and provides a power reserve of 72 hours. 

The watch comes with a rubber strap matching the dial color, paired with a titanium or gold and titanium pin buckle, along with an additional black rubber strap. These timepieces are limited in availability—exclusively offered from September 2024 to April 2025—priced at CHF 50,000/AED 216,000 for the Green and Purple editions, and CHF 66,000/AED 285,000 for the Chocolate edition.
