I was fortunate enough to catch up with him in Singapore recently, and I can tell you he has […]
Lionel Bruneau (founder) has been passionate about watches for years. A few years ago, he discovered that some Swiss Made watches were using parts of foreign origin was a disappointment… Like many, he had naturally assumed that “Swiss Made” meant that the watch was 100% made in Switzerland.

This photographer, adventurer and mountaineer has climbed Mount Everest twice. But this year, along with […]
If watches tick discrete seconds, time is continuous. It flows. Literally. Reading time on an HYT watch is an original experience. Its watches propose an artistic, symbolic and somehow natural representation of the relentless nature of time. Death and the image of the skull are, in this context, not just a gimmick. It makes sense […]
