HYT Hastroid Silver Red

HYT unveils HASTROID Silver Red, a limited edition of 15 pieces with sleek and electrifying finishes.

The new HASTROID Silver Red highlights the modern and contemporary character of the collection. A limited edition of 15 pieces with curves as perfect as its satin finishes. Incredible lightness meets exceptional innovation.

The Hastroid’s case, with a diameter of 48 mm, a lug-to-lug distance of 52.3 mm, and a thickness of 13.3 mm, has so far been crafted from advanced noble materials: titanium; titanium and carbon; and an original alloy of stabilized bronze and carbon that bridges memories of the ages and aspirations for the future.

Electrifying, the design of the HASTROID Silver Red defines its own codes, underlining the modern, just-at-the-cusp-of-tomorrow character of the whole. Its case, made of titanium and black DLC titanium, features a distinctive finish that gives it a satin and sandblasted effect.

The dial, extensively redesigned to improve legibility, features a large central hand with a vivid red coating and sharpened contours for an instantaneous fix on the minutes. The two sub-counters, arranged like instruments in a cockpit, provide essential complementary information: small seconds at left; power reserve to the right.

The same attention to aesthetics and legibility was applied to the fluid used for the retrograde time indication. The particular luminescence of the red liquid achieved here ensures that the hours pop and are equally easy to read, by day and by night. For contrast and clarity, a capillary dial topped with white Super-LumiNova® is positioned under the fluidic light. The hour markers around the chapter ring are made from blocks of Super-LumiNova®.

Water-resistant to 30 meters, the HASTROID Silver Red also features a central titanium container to protect the movement. Just a few of the technical features that hint at a depth of engineering that only enhances the appeal of this pioneering timepiece.

The openworked dial back and mainplate subtly reveal the components of the hand-wound mechanical movement. Designed by Eric Coudray for the HASTROID collection, the caliber’s distinctive aesthetic is further augmented thanks to modern finishes with elegant satin brushing and bead-blasting, that give a subtle edge to these treatments.
