The HL01 is a wristwatch by Hautlence.

In 2005 the new brand Hautlence presented as its first model this unusual watch with a case in TV screen format 16 9.

The skeleton dial shows the hours with a wheel, the minutes with a retrograde hand on a semi-circular dial, which at 60 jumps back to zero, and a separate small second in a sub-dial.

To solve the problem of power loss in the retrograde minutes indication, one ventured a whole new step and adopted the principle of power transmission by connecting rod, known from historical steam locomotives.

According to the company's motto this model is limited to 88 pieces.
