Inspiration

Overview

A racy new edition of Hautlence’s mind-blowing “Concept d’Exception” horological experiments, limited to 28 examples, the HL2.5 is so much more than just a wristwatch; it is a literal showcase of the brand’s extraordinary in-house talents, its regulating organ and fifth gear wheel tumbling 360º every 6 hours within a light-drenched geometric structure, glazed by six sapphire-crystal facets. Alternating sand-blasted, satin-brushed and hand-polished finishes lend the red-gold framework a highly three-dimensional and substantial presence on the wrist.

Like its predecessors in the HL2.0 collection, and faithful to the brand’s fundamental concept of offering a different way of reading time, the HL2.5 displays “half-trailing” jumping hours with a tiny caterpillar track. It advances by one “chain link” in 3-4 seconds without jumps or loss of energy, making it possible to admire the beauty of the movement every hour.


Inspiration

After 4 years of development, the in-house HL2.0 calibre was first shown in 2010 and officially launched in 2011 – evolving the brand’s founding concept of displaying time in otherworldly ways, yet going even further and cementing Hautlence among the greats of this era’s high-tech, conceptual watchmaking brands.

In The Know

“Easily within the "super watch" category, this is one of the few super watches I would wear on a daily basis. The fascinating movement, with its unique functionality, has a real enduring value and feels like, despite its peculiarities, it was designed to make sense.” Ariel Adams, aBlogtoWatch
