+Kevin Spears Indeed, he might be the perfect match for this particular combination of concept and product. HYT *is* Vincent Perriard. In the same fashion that Elon Musk wasn't the founder of Tesla but became its heart, soul, and face, Vincent is one and inseparable from the company HYT has become. Best, Tim
+michal szymanski Hi Michal, thank you for your kind words! I started placing the watch close to my phone camera because it tended to take one focus and remain fixated on that point, so I wanted detail. Now that I'm about to debut a new camera with a monster autofocus lens, I'll be able to show both close and distant shots in the same video. Best, Tim
Hey Tim, another great review. What was the other liquid watch you referenced? The Clip something? Not familiar with it. I thought this was the first mechanical watch with liquid giving the time.
+Dr. Fang Bian Hi Dr. welcome to our channel! The liquid hour scale of the H1 features two liquids: one green, one clear; the hour scale tube is completely full of fluid even when it appears that the green substance only fills part of the scale. A different liquid is stored in each of the metallic bellows at the base of the dial. The meniscus between the two dissimilar fluids effectively acts as the point of reference for the user when reading the hour scale. In order to achieve the rapid movement of this dividing line, one liquid is "pushed" while the other is "pulled" around the hour tube by their respective reservoirs. Best, Tim
+Amintas Neto Agreed. It's a tough watch to wear, but not necessarily for the 49mm size. I found that the thickness was tougher to accept because any watch of 18mm+ height requires special consideration in order to avoid blows to doorknobs, walls, and car seat belt buckles. For this reason, I prefer the durability of the HYT titanium cases. If nothing else, they're easier to refinish when the watch goes in for service. Best, Tim
I LOVE HYT! Incredible levels of creativity. Love the company direction from Vincent Perriard. Awesome watch.

Hi, I really like yours reviews! There are great!
I have just one suggestion, could you present the watches on the wrist from the bigger distance?

Just Out of this World.!!
Great review Tim. Just wish it was a bit smaller 😊
