HYT H1 TB

This watch will be an extension of the H1 collection which was originally a limited edition of only 8 pieces. This new watch will probably have a similar figure. The movement is identical to that of the first H1 (see picture). The movement is a hydro-mechanical hybrid that uses oil and water to show the hours and a smaller hand to show minutes and a small dial that looks like a fan to show seconds. The movement is enclosed in a 48mm case made of titanium with bronze shot-peened. This process uses small balls that bounce off at a high speed of the metal, creating a dimple. With all the dimples overlapping it creates compression and extends the life of the material. This site explains it better than I do: http://www.met
