HYT Hastroid Cosmic Hunter: The New Bronze Age
A new type of spaceship travels across time and space, relentlessly exploring the watchmaking galaxy in search of new and unique expressions of the art of watchmaking...by HYT
Designed modern timepieces, exclusive owners of mecafluid technology, a symbiotic marriage of science and micromechanics, is driving the creativity of fine watchmaking into a new universe. HYT changes common perceptions and develops extraordinary measuring instruments. Together with HYT, preparing for the future, the transformation of the watchmaking industry begins.
This fall, HYT Hastroid arrives in a warm and sensual hue in a bronze shell. An original variation to say the least, as it combines the futuristic nature of Hastroid with a material texture dating back to the most ancient times. Elegant and refined, the new Hastroid Cosmic Hunter is the perfect complement to HYT's bold approach.

"What we have worked on is a masterful craft, a perfect marriage of fluid technology and mechanical sophistication," said Davide Cerrato, HYT CEO and Creative Director.

This craftsmanship is clearly reflected in the bi-material case design of the new Hastroid Cosmic Hunter, which measures 48mm in diameter, 52.3mm in overall length and 17.2mm in case thickness. The originality of this piece lies in the combination of carbon and titanium, plated with a PVD bronze treatment and microbeaded finish. This bronze electroplated finish has the advantage of a retro hunter look with the surprising lightness of Hastroid.
For thousands of years, bronze has traditionally been an alloy of copper and tin, which has a color close to that of gold, but is often altered by oxidation. It is not uncommon for the bronze to turn black or take on a patina. To make its new Hastroid Cosmic Hunter timeless, HYT decided to use a stabilized finish to keep the bronze color. By anchoring its beauty and lightness, using a resolutely modern approach, without any nostalgia or attempt to create an artificial retro effect, HYT is bringing bronze into a new futuristic era.
Offering a beautiful contrast, this variation of case color accentuates the optimal readability of the dial, with its beige numerals in state-of-the-art Lumicast® material, a three-dimensional Superluminova® application emphasizing brilliance, its matte black-treated hands, and of course There are also liquids that show time retrograde. This black fluid, within its ultra-fine borosilicate capillaries, is the strikingly unique feature of the mecafluidic timepieces designed by HYT.

"Mecafluidic technology is a new term in scientific research for luxury watchmaking. We have the ability to highlight the symbiotic nature of these two technologies (mechanical and fluidic)," said Davide Cerrato, CEO and Creative Director of HYT.
The Hastroid's multi-layered middle case presents a subtle openwork, while the watch as a whole has a sandwich construction, is water resistant to 50 meters, and has a central protective titanium case for the movement that optimally handles the tasks assigned to this new spacecraft .
Like the flight deck, the watch is topped by a domed sapphire crystal, allowing a mostly unobstructed view of the entire dial. Of course, the heart of the mecafluid mechanism remains the fluid system, with its two central “bellows” reservoirs, whose design is unique to HYT’s creations, enhancing the character and sense of strength around the dial and the capillaries.
It is driven by a hand-wound mechanical movement, caliber 501 CM, beating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and has a power reserve of 72 hours.
The movement was designed by Eric Coudray®, renowned master watchmaker and winner of the 2012 Prix Gaïa. With the assistance of PURTEC (part of the TEC Group) and his longtime friend and watchmaker Paul Clémenti (Gaïa 2018), the movement is elegantly satin-finished or laser-treated or sandblasted for a more refined look and finishes.
Underscoring the character of this modern haute horlogerie, the black rubber bracelet with green Alcantara® inlays has a military touch and embossed Corioform® design inspired by the spacesuits worn by astronauts.
