Independent watchmaker Hautlence introduced the “Linear Series 2” linear jumping hour tourbillon watch in 2023. It features an extremely intuitive time display via a vertical linear hour scale on the left side of the dial, paired with a black PVD-coated case reminiscent of a vintage television, presenting a mechanical aesthetic full of futuristic flair.

The large rectangular stainless steel case measures an impressive 43mm × 50.8mm. The black PVD coating lends the watch an understated character, with meticulous attention to detail in its brushed, polished, and bevelled finishes. The watch offers 100 meters of water resistance for daily wear.

The openworked dial cleverly uses different shades of grey to accentuate its three-dimensional depth. The left side of the dial features the “linear” hour scale bar, where a curved blued steel hand and a white hour marker block indicate the current hour. This mechanism also incorporates a retrograde function, jumping from the 12 o’clock position back to 1 o’clock at the last second. The right side of the dial houses a sapphire crystal sub-dial for the minutes, while a flying tourbillon occupies the 6 o’clock position. All hands and numeral indices are coated with luminescent material.

It is powered by the Calibre D50 self-winding movement, operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour and offering a 72-hour power reserve. To complement the watch’s color theme, the movement bridges feature a dark grey coating and brushed finishing. The rotor is engraved with Hautlence’s “Möbius strip” emblem.

It is a limited edition of 28 pieces. The official price is  approximately 64,500 Euros.
