HYT S1 Titanium Japan Limited Edition

The S1 Titanium « Japan Limited Edition » is a striking first in a forthcoming series of sports watches made by HYT, the inventors of the hydromechanical wristwatch. As you probably guessed, the “S” stands for “Sport.” And the watch sure does live up to that name. The watch just oozes performance, power, and precision. Just like a top athlete, really.

The S1 Titanium « Japan Limited Edition » confidently presents itself with an ergonomic 45mm titanium case defined by its chiseled looks and is softened by a subtle satin finish. The hydromechanical caliber 501-CM takes center stage on the new S1's open-worked dial. Its hypnotic presence won’t allow you to look away.

The S1 Titanium « Japan Limited Edition » is a limited edition defined by intriguing paradoxes. It mixes and matches an introverted, softly shimmering silver colorway with edgy, angular lines and an outrageously exuberant high-tech mechanical movement on display for all to see. The watch is the monochromatic forerunner of a sports watch collection on the horizon, and it tells of HYT’s strong ambitions for the future. It’s also a statement. The new timepiece shows HYT’s enduring capabilities to combine fine craftsmanship, technological innovations, and progressive design while ensuring optimum wrist comfort.

The open-worked design allows a clear view of the watch’s finely finished “engine” and emphasizes the S1’s sporty, tuned, lightweight nature. As expected from an HYT creation, the attention to detail is phenomenal. The flange's miniature honeycomb structure, which also holds the Arabic numerals that mark the hours, is fully in theme with the lightweight sports theme.
