For Watches & Wonders 2025, HYT presents the new S1 Series Beadblasted Titanium Red. This timepiece maintains its distinctive angular profile while embracing ergonomic contours and fluid lines—now reimagined with a striking new aesthetic. The versatile timepiece comes with both rubber and fabric strap options. The light grey velcro strap offers a sporty alternative, secured by a streamlined loop buckle that mirrors the case's sophisticated finishes. On the red rubber strap, the watch looks completely different.
The 45.3 mm case, measuring 17.20 mm in thickness, combines silver and black-coated bead-blasted titanium to achieve its avant-garde presence. Various gray tones create the perfect canvas for the timepiece's signature feature: vibrant red retrograde fluid hours displayed within a borosilicate capillary tube. The flange features a refined, bead-blasted grain structure that enhances its monochromatic harmony. The versatile timepiece comes with both rubber and fabric strap options.

At its core, the hydromechanical 501-CM movement isn't merely futuristic in appearance—it represents a genuine breakthrough in horological innovation. Even the calibre 501-CM, housed within the 50-meter water-resistant case, showcases thoughtful material contrast—grained sand-blasted elements paired with matte-brushed components for visual cohesion. This manual wound mechanism delivers an impressive 72-hour power reserve.
On the wrist, the angular case architecture makes a bold statement while the ergonomically curved lugs follow the natural contour of your wrist, preventing the common ‘floating’ effect often found in larger timepieces. This careful design ensures the watch sits securely and comfortably, distributing its weight evenly across the wrist. Despite its substantial 45.3mm case diameter and 17.20mm thickness, the S1 Beadblasted Titanium Red achieves remarkable wearability through thoughtful engineering. The rubber option offers security during active pursuits while maintaining comfort in varied temperatures and moisture conditions. The light grey velcro alternative provides infinite adjustability for the perfect fit, with its technical fabric remaining breathable during extended wear. The new HYT S1 Series Beadblasted Titanium Red is available in a limited edition of only 8 pieces.
