HYT Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds

In the realm of haute horlogerie, where timekeeping transcends mere functionality and evolves into an art form, HYT has consistently pushed the boundaries of innovation. With the unveiling of the Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds, HYT solidifies its position as a pioneer, merging mechanical ingenuity with the mesmerizing allure of diamonds.

The Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds is not merely a timepiece; it's a testament to the brand's unwavering commitment to redefining horological norms. As a unique piece, it embodies the pinnacle of HYT's expertise, showcasing the harmonious marriage of technical brilliance and aesthetic splendor. This exceptional timepiece isn't just about telling time; it's about experiencing the artistry of watchmaking in its most exquisite form.



At the heart of this horological marvel lies the mesmerizing dance of the conical tourbillon, an intricate mechanism that has been elevated to new heights of sophistication. Powered by HYT's exclusive hydro-mechanical technology, the tourbillon's graceful rotations are a spectacle to behold. But what truly sets this timepiece apart is the dazzling display of diamonds that adorn its every surface.

The dial, a canvas of shimmering brilliance, is adorned with 400 snow-set diamonds. This intricate technique involves meticulously setting diamonds of varying sizes, creating a seamless blanket of sparkle that captures and reflects light with every movement. The upper case, too, is adorned with an additional 175 snow-set diamonds, further amplifying the watch's luxurious allure. The culmination of over three months of painstaking craftsmanship, the diamond setting is a testament to the dedication and skill of HYT's artisans.

The watch's visual symphony is further enhanced by the three 64-facet round brilliant-cut diamonds that grace the dial's center. These diamonds, each measuring approximately 2.5mm, not only add to the watch's aesthetic appeal but also play a crucial role in the tourbillon's mesmerizing animation. Rotating at different speeds, they create a captivating visual ballet that draws the eye into the heart of the timepiece.



While the Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds is undoubtedly a modern masterpiece, it pays homage to the rich heritage of watchmaking. The conical tourbillon itself is a testament to the ingenuity of German watchmaker Walter Prendel, who pioneered the inclined balance wheel tourbillon. HYT's integration of this historical technique into its contemporary creation is a nod to the brand's respect for horological tradition.

The tourbillon's intricate mechanics are a marvel of engineering, comprising 533 components that work in perfect harmony. The tourbillon cage alone consists of 159 components, each meticulously crafted and assembled by hand. The result is a mechanism that not only keeps precise time but also captivates with its graceful movements.

The beating heart of the HYT Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds is the Reference 701-TC movement, a masterpiece of mechanical engineering comprising 533 individual components. This intricate caliber powers the watch's unique hydro-mechanical time display, where a black fluid flows through a borosilicate capillary tube, indicating the hours. The movement's high-end finishes, including black finish, rhodium-plating, and 5N gold, showcase the meticulous attention to detail that HYT is known for.



But the movement's true showstopper is the conical tourbillon. Inclined at 30 degrees and rotating clockwise every 30 seconds, the tourbillon's graceful movements are a mesmerizing sight. Its technical efficiency allows for the dissociated rotations of six spheres within the tourbillon cage, four in 5N rose gold and two in titanium, creating a captivating visual ballet. The tourbillon's intricate construction, with 159 components in the cage alone, is a testament to HYT's commitment to pushing the boundaries of horological craftsmanship.

The watch's 48mm bicolor case, crafted from 5N gold and black DLC-coated titanium, is a study in contrasts. The black DLC coating on the titanium not only adds a touch of modernity but also enhances the watch's durability. The 5N gold crown, also coated in black DLC, complements the case's aesthetic while providing a tactile contrast.



The case's most striking feature, however, is the snow-set diamond pavé that adorns its upper surface. 175 diamonds of varying sizes are meticulously set by hand, creating a shimmering spectacle that catches the light from every angle. The case's intricate design and impeccable finishing are a testament to HYT's unwavering pursuit of perfection.

The HYT Conical Tourbillon Infinity Diamonds' dial is a masterpiece of artistry and engineering. Crafted from 5N gold and snow-set with 400 diamonds, it's a canvas of shimmering brilliance. The 3D appliques with black DLC coating and luminescent white numerals and logo provide a striking contrast to the diamond-studded backdrop, ensuring legibility in any lighting condition.

The dial's centerpiece is the borosilicate capillary tube, through which the black fluid flows, indicating the hours. This unique time display, a hallmark of HYT's innovative approach to watchmaking, is both functional and visually arresting. The matte black minute hand with white Super-LumiNova ensures easy reading of the minutes, even in low-light conditions.
