H1.0 BLACK FLUID
Active. Energized. Impactful.
Science teaches that collisions are about interactions and rarely an accident. The H1.0 by HYT
creates a beautiful space in which mechanical horology and fluid technology collide with each other
constructively. The result is a timepiece that showcases the injection of physical energy into a
patented fluidic module. As the intricate movement and multi-layer bellows join forces, time literally
gains momentum.
The H1.0 is empowered by three-dimensional transparency. Viewed from any angle it takes an
architectural approach to visualizing the passage of time, placing the present in the context of the past
and future, using liquids. All elements of the specially developed mechanical movement collaborate
closely to form the big picture of pure functionality. From the clearly visible power reserve display, to
the constructed wheel that indicates the flow of the seconds, time is in perpetual motion. Positive
energy emerges from a series of visible tensions, such as the shaping of the steeply curved case and
the clipped lines of the bellows’ extractors. Even the side-view of the watch tells the story of time’s
passage via cut-out digits embedded in the deep grooves of the case’s exterior. The concept of fluidity
is emphasized in the H1.0 by water resistance to 50 meters.
