This is translated clearly through sleek lines and shaping, subtly punctuated by splashes of colour and underlying utilitarian confidence. The visualization of time’s motion by HYT is all about context – and content. In an era where agendas are prone to overflow, the latest H0 focuses on making time’s flow meaningful. Avant-garde esthetics, with a form resembling a smoothed pebble, a curved dial and the HYT patented fluidic module, are the platform for relevant functionality.
Bold digits, marking the passing hours, circumnavigate the side of the case and glow in the dark. This expresses the H0 commitment to three-dimensionality. After all, since when have time and space satisfied themselves with two dimensions or one perspective? An extra visual dimension comes from smoky grey sapphire glass windows in front of the bellows that constitute liquid time’s powerhouse.
The new H0 model’s take on transience and transparency has two variations. In one of these, a khaki dial and rubber strap stylishly camouflage the DLC anthracite coating of the stainless steel case. Red and pale green complete the color palette, with the former taking on the essential task of visualizing recently elapsed hours. A slate grey version, with a slight hint of blue, embraces a serene black case and bright accents on the dial for accessible timekeeping. Ebony-colored liquid shows the now morphing into memories before our very eyes.
