Like its predecessors, hours are not pointed to, but revealed by a sculptural sphere rotating on three axes, while the minutes trace their path across a 180° retrograde display.

For this new edition, white brings a sense of clarity to the composition, drawing attention to the shapes, volumes and open architecture of the watch.

Its rotation is driven by a system of four conical gears arranged around two crossed axes inclined at 21 degrees, turning each change of hour into a three-dimensional expression of time.

Designed and assembled in Hautlence's workshops, the hand-wound A82 calibre offers a minimum 72-hour power reserve.

It is housed within Hautlence's distinctive rectangular titanium case, measuring 37.0 x 45.0 x 17.4 mm, or 11.5 mm without the sapphire crystal and offering water resistance to 10 ATM.

A white suede strap, paired with a lightweight titanium folding clasp, completes the composition. Soft in texture and deliberately minimal in appearance, it extends the Snow White aesthetic onto the wrist while contrasting with the technical character of the titanium case.

A Mexican Debut 

The Sphere Series 5 makes its world premiere at the Salón Internacional de Alta Relojería (SIAR) in Mexico City, presented in partnership with Attila Distribution.

 For its first 30 days, the timepiece remains strictly exclusive to the Mexican market, delivered in a dedicated presentation package created solely for this release.

Housed in a custom white exhibition case, each Mexican allocation includes three interchangeable suede straps in intense green, pure white and vibrant red.

While total production of the Sphere Series 5 is capped at 28 pieces worldwide, all subsequent international deliveries outside this debut window will be configured exclusively with the single white suede strap.

This release represents an open declaration of affection and long-term commitment to Mexico, a country that welcomed Hautlence with genuine passion from the very beginning. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Mexican collectors possess a distinct, powerful identity: intensely knowledgeable, intellectually curious and driven by an exploratory, almost rebellious appetite for independent watchmaking, looking past predictable status symbols, gravitating instead towards kinetic innovation, sculptural audacity and genuine attitude. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

This instinct is an authentic reflection of Mexican cultural identity: a heritage forged in monumental scale, profound artistic tension and an innate refusal to conform. Hautlence recognises that exact pulse. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

By offering its most radical three-dimensional creation to Mexico before the rest of the world, Hautlence celebrates that daring spirit, strengthening an enduring relationship built on mutual respect and a shared love for unconventional horology.

HAUTLENCE – KUBERA Series 1 Jumping Hours


HAUTLENCE – KUBERA Series 4 'Jumping Hours' Layered Architecture Steel 2026

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

THE ARCHITECTURE
OF TIME, BY
HAUTLENCE

Since it was founded in 2004, Hautlence has continually explored alternative ways of displaying the time. This ongoing quest has now found another exquisite expression in a new collection. Named Kubera, after the god of wealth and the world’s treasures in Hindu mythology, this line lays the foundations for a new watchmaking architecture. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

A new case, a new aesthetic, a new movement: the Kubera Series 1 model combines a sculptural design inspired by Cubism and its fragmented approach to form with a mechanical, handless time display. Embraced by a steel case that extends into an integrated bracelet, seemingly carved from a single block, a jumping hour is paired with a peripheral minute display. Balancing graphic minimalism with tactile richness, Hautlence transforms the watch into an object as compelling to touch, handle and explore as it is to observe.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

At Hautlence, emotion and sensation come first. This is exactly what the Kubera model evokes. Capturing the attention from the very first glance, its steel case features a layered architecture composed of successive levels that sculpt the light and enhance the watch’s three-dimensional presence, forming an almost monolithic silhouette. Each surface reflects the light differently, revealing a subtle interplay of volumes and textures. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO  

The integrated bracelet seamlessly extends this effect. Its links cascade like a geometric sequence of articulated shapes, gradually decreasing in size to ensure visual continuity and a smooth fit on the wrist. The deep green dial echoes this same formal language. Its structured surface creates a subtle geometric relief that catches the light while preserving a strong sense of graphic purity.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

The minimalist time display mechanism is equally restrained. The hour appears in a window, jumping instantly every sixty minutes. The minutes, meanwhile, are indicated with precision by a cursor moving around the dial’s periphery, guided by a track hidden beneath the surface. This element, an iconic Hautlence signature, embodies the brand’s graphic essence and its unique approach to giving time a tangible form. 

  Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

The Kubera Series 1 is powered by a Lajoux-Perret self-winding movement, featuring an anti-magnetic escapement introduced for the first time at Hautlence.

  Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

The jumping hours and peripheral minutes module, developed by Agenhor in collaboration with Hautlence, completes this mechanical architecture and turns the act of reading the time into a dynamic visual experience, where the movement replaces the traditional hand. 

  Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

In naming this new collection, the brand took inspiration from Hindu mythology. Kubera, the god of wealth and guardian of underground treasures, is associated with the earth, mountains and precious minerals. This reference reflects the watch’s aesthetic: an object with sculpted surfaces and rich textures, evoking the layers and contours of a material shaped by time. 

  Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

True to its independent spirit, Hautlence breaks free from convention to offer a free and experimental vision of contemporary watchmaking. With the Kubera, it asserts a clear vision: watchmaking driven by design and by an unprecedented approach to displaying time. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO  

A watch designed for collectors seeking something beyond the traditional time reading method: a mechanical object with a strong personality.

Hautlence: a pioneer of modern, architectural horology and a catalyst for progressive independent watchmaking.

HAUTLENCE – SPHERE Series 3 Titanium Edition


HAUTLENCE – SPHERE Series 3 'Spherical Jumping Hours' Titanium Edition 2025

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Hautlence returns to the spot light with a new variation of its most mesmerizing mechanical sculpture: the Sphere Series 3. Same complication, same kinetic magic — but with a completely reimagined silhouette: more compact, more daring. The rectangular case adopts new, reduced proportions and houses a fully reworked movement in a smaller format.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Architectural, sculptural and utterly hypnotic, the Sphere Series 3 takes Hautlence's aesthetic and technical vision even further. This new interpretation of the iconic piece embodies the brand's ambition: elevating mechanics to the level of kinetic art.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The titanium case, now more compact, reveals clean, assertive lines, as if carved from raw material. Its redesigned format brings a new sense of balance: the visual power remains, but is now focused, contained, almost intimate. On the sides, subtle reliefs echo the rectangular design that has become a Hautlence signature. Water-resistant to 10 ATM, the watch retains its futuristic presence while embracing a contemporary edge. 

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The sphere, meanwhile, remains faithful to its original vocation: to captivate the eye. Positioned on the left side of the dial, it rotates on three axes, revealing the hours through a ballet that is both precise and hypnotic—orchestrated by four conical gears moving around two crossed axes inclined at 21 degrees. Two polished titanium shells, coated in a striking shade of purple, encase the differential mechanism and unite to form the sphere. Around it, the fully skeletonised dial gives the impression that the sphere is floating in mid-air. Time takes on the quality of a mirage: no longer merely displayed, but experienced.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

On the right, the retrograde minute hand interacts with the openworked dial, revealing the heartbeat of the movement. Gears, freewheel and snail cam appear like a miniature stage where each component performs its role. The purple minute hand traces its path along a suspended minute track before snapping back to zero in a controlled glide—a return to order after the dance.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Beneath the dial beats the manual-winding calibre A82, specially adapted to this more compact case. The same ingenuity, the same precision, but condensed into a reduced version that preserves all the magic of the original movement. Designed and assembled in the brand’s workshops, it is powered by a hairspring produced by Precision Engineering AG, Hautlence’s sister company.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Fully skeletonised, the barrel and ratchet reveal the tension of the mainspring, offering an intuitive reading of the 72-hour power reserve. A built-in security mechanism prevents accidental damage during incorrect manipulation like reverse time setting: the watch protects itself, true to the brand’s pragmatic innovation ethos.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

With the Sphere Series 3, Hautlence signs a more compact—yet equally captivating—expression of its horological vision: a timepiece where every detail vibrates between architectural rigour and artistic freedom.

HAUTLENCE – HELIX Series 1 Tourbillon Titanium Edition


HAUTLENCE – HELIX Series 1 Central Tourbillon Titanium Edition 2025

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

HELIX BY HAUTLENCE: 
SPIRALING INTO THE FUTURE

There are moments—rare ones—when watchmaking seems to vibrate with electricity. When engineering flirts with philosophy. When design stops mimicking the past and begins bending the future. Enter Helix by Hautlence. An independent timepiece, born in Schaffhausen, sculpted with the boldness of those who have nothing to prove—except their freedom. This is not a watch. It’s a statement. Architecture in motion.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Let’s start with the shape: Hautlence introduces a new rectangular case. Small, sharper. Machined from lightweight titanium, it speaks a language of refined brutalism—uncompromising, assertive, and monumental. A wrist-worn monolith.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

And it’s not only about presence. It’s about performance. Sitting atop this rectangular case, water-resistant to 10 ATM, is a domed sapphire crystal that adds a note of softness — a curvature so pure, so precise, it bends light to its will. Crafting such a crystal is a technical madness, but the reward is worth it: it draws all eyes inward, magnifying the heart of the watch like a lens focused on a revolution: its central cylindrical tourbillon.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

More than a watch, Helix is a vision. A manifesto in motion. The cylindrical tourbillon isn’t just centered; it is the center, the conceptual core. Spiraling like DNA, it becomes a kinetic sculpture, adding a third dimension to reimagine the tourbillon.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Flanking this tourbillon are two retrograde displays, for hours and minutes, that perform their choreography with crisp, deliberate precision.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

At the heart of the Helix Series 1 ticks the D51 automatic calibre. Designed, developed, and manufactured entirely in-house, it features a micro-rotor that allows for balanced, compact proportions without compromising performance. This movement includes 235 components, beats at a frequency of 3 hertz, and offers a 65-hour power reserve.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Since its beginnings, Hautlence has never liked repetition. Born in Neuchâtel, now based in Schaffhausen, the brand has always walked the line between mechanical obsession and raw aesthetic power. The Helix follows this path: it doesn’t just measure time, it redefines it.

 Click , to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

This is not a watch for timid collectors. It’s for those who see time not as a circle, but as a spiral—because each moment rises, evolves, and never repeats.
