Introducing: The HYT H2 Aviator, A Futuristic Hydro-Mechanical Pilot's Watch

September 03, 2015

HYT, known for their fluid complication for showing the minutes, has released a newly re-designed H2 Aviator watch. Design cues were taken from pilot's watches and clocks, resulting in a futuristic hydro-mechanical pilot's watch. Designed with legibility in mind, the quarter hour markers are now highlighted in red, and the hour indexes are in grey anthracite Super-LumiNova. Along the same theme, the central hours hand is now magnified and tipped in red. A new Kevlar strap with contrasting red stitching looks great with the rest of the design updates. The H2 Aviator is a limited edition of 40 pieces, available October 2015. For more information, visit HYT Watches.
