HYT, which has just celebrated its third anniversary, is now part of the very select group of 28 partner brands of the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie (FHH). For HYT, this represents a fresh endorsement of its innovative approach to 21st century watchmaking.
"We are delighted that the FHH has chosen to recognise our innovative, non - conformist and creative nature, a creativity which is still expressed within the strict framework of Haute Horlogerie", explains Grégory Dourde, CEO of HYT. "In theory, integrating fluid technology in a mechanical watch was akin to trying to unite tw o opposing worlds. However, we achieved it and today, HYT employs around 48 staff working on five permanent collections -about 400 pieces a year. For the entire team, which has overcome so much, and for all of our customers, who have believed in us for the last five years, it is both an endorsement and an incentive to f orge ahead in our quest to invent the watches of the future".
