HAUTLENCE, one of the most coveted Swiss watch brands, brings to Dubai a new pocket and desk watch for HL which will be produced in the limited edition of 88 pieces. It has a power reserve of 40 hours and its movement uses over 150 components.
HAUTLENCE has certainly made an impression with the metamorphosis of its HL watch into a pocket watch and table timekeeper. Actually, this transformation seems quite natural, and it also proposes a very contemporary manner to revisit a long lost habit—that of carrying one's watch in the hand, and hiding it in a pocket, whilst being able play with it at will.
The hyper-mechanical structure of the HL, with its assortment of connecting rods activating the jumping hour and retrograde minutes, lends itself wonderfully to this playful and imaginative timepiece. While the new 'Structure HL' is a pocket watch in the traditional sense, it can also be converted into a timekeeper to be placed on a small stand on a desk or table.
Presented at BaselWorld this year, the brand made available eight basic models, each in quantities of 88 watches. It was a delightful diversion while waiting to discover the next HAUTLENCE watch that will surely surprise many.
