By way of a reminder, in the hydro-mechanical technology, the hours are indicated by a fluorescent aqueous liquid moving inside a flexible reservoir that it connected via a capillary to another reservoir housing a transparent viscous liquid. Their respective individual molecules guarantee sufficient repulsive force to ensure these liquids remain separate, while the piston-driven bellows at 6 o’clock made from an electro-deposited alloy cause the fluids to advance first in one direction and then the other (returning at 18 :00 to its original position in what is referred to as a retrograde manner).
A double barrel visible on the back delivers an 8-day power reserve to this patented mechanism that is more clearly highlighted in this new configuration, such as with the balance-and-spring displayed at noon on its bridge. Another exclusive feature stemming from the nature of the H2 model is the 9 o’clock hand serving as a thermal indicator to determine the optimal temperature range when on the wrist. It appears opposite the crown-position hand (H-N-R), while the larger highly structured hand shows the minutes and jumps across the inner end of the bellows so as to represent readings of the inner bezel ring graduations.
In this multidimensional and sensational architecture, the hybrid watch has definitely found its master.
