New AVANT-GARDE Collection by Hautlence

Famous for its innovative approach to display the time, the watch company Hautlence from Neuchâtel again utilizes its design elements to create a new collection called AVANT-GARDE, where a inventive approach combined with a creative outlook of its creators.
The first three models of the AVANT-GARDE collection, presented in October, have two layered dials, creating an illusion of depth and clarity reveals the architectural balance of its components. Glancing at the watch above the eye instantly covers all its contents: the upper portion of the transparent sapphire dial features a moving logo, luminescent hour and minute scale indices. In addition, its lower part is composed of translucent zones and elements of metal, plated with rhodium or rose gold. Located at the bottom, the base dial from the silvered opal or branded honeycomb further enhances the feeling of weightlessness. Luminescent numerals and indexes provide the perfect reading of the dial and enhance the 3D-effect of jumping hours, retrograde minute and small second’s hand.
The collection consists of three models AVANT-GARDE - HLRS 01 - Rose gold, AVANT-GARDE - HLRS 02 - Blue and AVANT-GARDE - HLRS 03 - Orange Honeycomb.
The model AVANT-GARDE - HLRS 01 - Rose gold has a case made of titanium, stainless steel bezel and bumpers with black DLC-coated crown and screws 4N 18K rose gold, base silvered opaline dial, black rubber strap with a folding clasp.
