BALL-E - MECHANICAL PINBALL

Disconnect, let go, let time take its course: that is what HAUTLENCE offering with its PINBALL model, from the Playground mechanical games collection, based on the iconic game from our childhood.

Although it is impossible to keep time under control, HAUTLENCE makes the passage of time more pleasant, by diverting the timepiece from its primary mission while scrupulously adhering to the principle of watchmaking art, since the PINBALL movement comes with a built-in minute repeater mechanism. PINBALL lets you stop the mad rush of time, for a few minutes, to immerse yourself in the joy of play.

To support the Only Watch action, HAUTLENCE has created a unique piece, dubbed BALL-e. When the light goes out, BALL-e reveals its second face: the dial displays the head of a small robot, as a protective talisman in the darkness.

With BALL-e, HAUTLENCE opens up the doors to a magic world, of which play is an essential part, reminding us how important it is to keep smiling, despite the ills life throws at us.

Only Watch Partnership

Now presenting its 7th Edition, Only Watch is a biennale auction of unique timepieces that has raised over 25 million Euros to date. Under the patronage of HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco and following the initiative of Luc Pettavino, President of the Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies, Only Watch is an international watchmaking charity event.

All of the funds collected from the sale of the watches are donated in their entirety to scientific and medical research. The exclusive watches will embark on a world tour starting in the charity’s hometown of Monaco, and then continuing to Asia, the Gulf, the United States and Europe, before the final auction in Geneva on November 11th 2017.
