THE HELIX

Back with a smaller case—this time without lugs. The Helix Series 1 marks a new chapter for Hautlence, crafted in Schaffhausen with the technical vision that has defined the brand since 2004. At its heart lies a central tourbillon with a rare cylindrical hairspring, breathing three-dimensionally at the core of the watch. Flanking it are dual retrograde displays—hours on the right, minutes on the left—snapping back with mechanical theatre that gives rhythm and energy to the passing of time. Slim, architectural, and water-resistant to 100 meters, the Helix is a bold statement of what contemporary watchmaking can be: art, engineering, and emotion, limited to just 28 pieces worldwide.
