Founded in 2012, the independent Swiss watch brand HYT introduced an original and exclusive approach to measuring time developed entirely in-house: HYT’s patented mechanical-fluidic technology combines a mechanical movement with a retrograde hour indication in which two immiscible fluids (one colored and one transparent) circulate through a capillary tube.
HYT was born from the dream of introducing fluid & mechanics into the time display of a mechanical watch, guided by the ambition to delve deep down to the very origins of time measurement dating several thousand years: the clepsydra.
This led HYT to develop a cutting edge technology for applying the energy generated by the watch movement to a fluidic module – and display fluidic time.
Over the past ten-plus years, HYT has been constantly improving and enhancing the reliability of both: its system and its movements.
2023 marks an important milestone as HYT enters a new phase in its development and reaches maturity.
HYT timepieces, produced in limited editions, represent the best of independent watchmaking, daring, innovative, complex and creative.
