HYT H1 ALINGHI

-

The third watch to come from its partnershi­p with the yacht racing team, the H1 Alinghi is the most technicall­y advanced and edgy of the trilogy and available as a 20-piece limited edition. The H1 Alinghi is the epitome of understate­ment; the aim is to focus as much attention on the technology as on the aesthetics. On the back, the structure of the H1 Alinghi echoes the deck of a yacht. The grey sandblaste­d finish is the perfect backdrop to showcase the piece in all its high-tech glory. The dial, just like an Alinghi catamaran in full flight, uses an array of technologi­es to enable the time to be read via the liquid in the capillary, to create its signature fluid time. To make it easier to read in the dark, HYT has set it on a channel filled with Super-luminova. At night, the translucen­t part of the capillary reflects the light, enabling the time display, which remains opaque, to be read. The piece features offset lugs and a crown guard made from folded and forged carbon. These elements are designed and manufactur­ed outside of the watch, then assembled onto its titanium middle.
