Experience the Innovation: HYT Hastroid Supernova Blue at Geneva Watch Days

Discover the highly anticipated and contemporary blue version of HYT’s Hastroid timepiece during Geneva Watch Days. This revitalizing and electrifying addition to the Hastroid fleet is set to transform perceptions of unconventional watches.

Introducing Mission Hastroid Supernova Blue, a new opus in the HYT saga that takes you on a captivating journey around the blue planet. Launching on August 29, 2022, at Geneva Watch Days, this timepiece sets new standards in watchmaking.

The HYT Hastroid Supernova Blue instrument features a vibrant and calming shade of blue, evoking the timeless beauty of Earth as the “blue planet” and the magnetic allure of starry fields. Its design also symbolizes the energy resources of future electric engines. Selected by Davide Cerrato, HYT CEO and creative director, this color choice enhances the watch’s emotional appeal and aesthetic.

“We are committed to impeccable craftsmanship, combining flawless fluidic technology and mechanical complexity,” stated Davide Cerrato during the Hastroid watch launch in January 2022. Following the success of the Hastroid “Green Nebula” with its iconic green hue, HYT announced the development of new color ranges.

Continuing its transformation, the Hastroid now showcases a captivating blue shade, unveiled with the Moon Runner Supernova Blue in spring. The natural progression led to the name Hastroid Supernova Blue.

The watch’s design showcases a glossy anthracite carbon and titanium case, complemented by a blue fluid in the capillary, which indicates the retrograde hours. The blue central minute hand contrasts against the black dial, while the luminescent honeycomb grid and hour numerals provide excellent visibility. Completing the look is an embossed rubber and Alcantara strap, enhancing the overall appeal.

Maintaining the Hastroid’s carefully constructed lines and proportions, the Supernova Blue boasts a 48mm diameter casing, 58.3mm total length, and 13.3mm case thickness. Crafted for new adventures, its multi-layer middle case features subtle openwork, while the sandwiched construction and central protective titanium case ensure optimal handling in any mission. With a water resistance of up to 50 meters, the watch is ready for any exploration.

Powered by the 501 CM calibre, a 352-piece manual winding mechanical movement, the Hastroid offers a remarkable 72 hours of power reserve. Operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), it guarantees precision and reliability for endless exploration.

The watch’s domed sapphire crystal provides an unobstructed view of the dial, showcasing the mecafluid mechanism as the centerpiece. The unique fluid system, featuring two central “bellow” reservoirs, brings a sense of power and character to the watch. With only 27 copies produced, this extraordinary timepiece is truly exclusive.

HYT, the UFO of luxury watchmaking, embraces the concept of the clepsydra and the passage of time, infusing it with a contemporary vision. Developed over a decade, HYT’s patented mecafluidic technology garnered recognition and received the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève innovation prize in 2012.

Guided by the visionary designer Davide Cerrato, HYT combines style and strategy to bring a breath of fresh air to luxury watchmaking. As the first spacecraft of the new HYT fleet, the Hastroid heralds a new era and expands the boundaries of watchmaking with its pioneering spirit.
