Hautlence HL2.0

HL2.0 is a collection from the Swiss company Hautlence in which the hours and minutes are shown by the mechanics themselves, put on full display. The hour is indicated by a jumping-hour chain, the minutes by a retrograde hand, and at every change of hour the escapement assembly with its balance wheel rotates together with the chain. The series is named after the self-winding in-house calibre HL2.0.

Within the collection, the choice is first of all about the version — reference, metal and finish — and, for a pre-owned piece, condition and accessories. One example is the men's Concepts D'exception, reference HL2.2. The brand's other line is Hautlence Avant-Garde.
