History -- and common sense -- teach that mechanical watches and liquid do not mix; however, the company HYT (Hydro Technology) has reinvented the world of watches with its innovative H1 watch. Using the mechanics of a wind-up watch, HYT has revolutionized how you tell time.
By having a green liquid around the face of the watch, wearers determine the time by where the liquid in the watch has stopped. For example, if it is 1:15, the green liquid (called fluorescein) will be positioned at the number one and a smaller dial inside the face of the watch will indicate the minutes. This liquid has been perfectly mastered by the scientists at HYT to stay bright and to not evaporate. This watch is as interesting as it is unique. It’s a striking, mechanically inspired piece that will be sure to get people talking.
