The 3 h1 air pieces can hardly keep their feet on the ground! to begin with, they arrive together as non-identical triplets – the first time hyt unveils a complete collection of limited pieces in one shot. secondly, the pieces explore unchartered territory such as the maritime world or camouflage. but the third and most surprising aspect to the air collection is that hyt presents its first classical piece! are the enfants terribles of hydro-mechanics growing up?
The h1 air rc44 stands out from the collections like no other as it is the first piece hyt ever creates as part of a partnership. more than ever ‘fluids are in our dna’ says hyt ceo vincent perriard. in saying this perriard makes reference to the fact that since february 2015, hyt is the official timekeeper for the rc44 regatta created by russell coutts, 5 times winner of the america’s cup, one of the most difficult circuits in the world. he adds, ‘for this occasion, we needed a piece that of course leveraged on our fluid technology but also ensured the performance and the lightness of a monocoque’.
