The HAUTLENCE Sphere Series 4 sets time in motion. Housed in a compact, architectural titanium case with a fully skeletonised dial, it brings the jumping hours to life through a sand-coloured textured sphere that rotates on three axes in a hypnotic mechanical choreography. On the left side of the dial, the sphere performs its captivating motion thanks to a system of four bevel gears evolving around two crossed axes inclined at 21 degrees, creating a display that feels both technical and almost gravity-defying. Around it, the openworked dial reveals the architecture of the movement, with bridges, wheels and components appearing suspended in space to give the watch remarkable depth. Opposite, the retrograde minute hand travels across a 180° sector before snapping back to zero in one swift, controlled motion, adding a dynamic punctuation to each passing hour. At the heart of the watch beats the hand-wound A82 calibre, offering a 72-hour power reserve and equipped with a hairspring produced by Precision Engineering AG. Finished in an olive green and sand palette inspired by natural and mineral materials, the Sphere Series 4 expresses HAUTLENCE’s singular vision of time: a mechanical spectacle where precision meets an almost organic aesthetic. Limited to 28 pieces worldwide.

Details

Rectangular Horizontal Case

Dimensions: 37.0 × 45.0 × 17.4 mm (11.5 mm without crystal)
Due to the integrated bracelet and absence of lugs, the watch wears extremely comfortably and appears smaller on the wrist.
Grade 5 titanium — satin-finished surfaces with finely polished angles
Water-resistant to 10 ATM — a notable achievement, as rectangular cases are typically harder to seal effectively

Dial Design

Spherical jumping hours at 9 o’clock: a sand-coloured, finely sandblasted titanium sphere engraved with luminous numerals.
The sphere’s jump follows a ~450° choreography (~1¼ turns) to reach the next hour, creating those mesmerizing, gyroscopic direction changes you feel on the wrist.
Retrograde minutes at 3 o’clock on a sapphire minute track with 3D Globolight® indexes—white by day, electric blue by night. Titanium minute hand with sand PVD treatment and white Super-LumiNova®
Architectural, skeletonized, openworked stage with frosted and bevelled surfaces that showcase the gearing and the retrograde mechanism

Function & Talking Points

Hours: instantaneous jump on the sphere; motion driven by four conical gears on two crossed spindles
set at 21°—the secret behind that seemingly random, multi-axis spin.
Minutes: sweeping retrograde that snaps back at :60, synchronised with the hour jump.
