Between Conformists And Non-Believers
HYT is a Swiss brand creating luxury watches renowned for their adventurous craftsmanship, always looking to improve and innovate. Their work is the avant-garde of this new generation, and, while founded in 2012, they have already captured a lot of attention in the field.
Now, they come with a special edition of their Skull release, named Bad Boy. I like this one, as I find it indeed special. Apart from the usual skull on the dial, the Bad Boy comes with a special feeling, being made specially for those who always look to bend the rules. It is provocative and breaks away from what HYT represents, without leaving the sensation of a watch made for kids. Being bold in design is always a very good idea, on a market so polarized between conformists and non-believers.
The Bad Boy In Town
The development of the watch, from the inception of the idea to the design and specifications being put in practice took a lot of work and imagination, but the final result is delightful. The fluid mechanics HYT brought to the table is impressive and all over the place when we speak about the Bad Boy. The model makes use of a capillary, a signature of the Swiss manufacturer, bringing a fluid to act as the hour maker. Everything around this watch is special in its own way. The skull shape of the tube, measuring less than one millimeter in diameter is a task demanding great care and attention.
The Skull of the Bad Boy is coated with a new composite material, resembling Damascus steel. Basically, we have multiple-layered steel and carbon fibers folded in on themselves no less than 256 times. I recommend this watch for all those who don’t like to follow the ordinary. It’s an accessory that will bring you in the center of attention no matter the occasion you choose for complimenting your wrist with it.
