Catalogue Essay
The present HL 03 wristwatch is fitted in a cushion-shaped case measuring 43.5 mm that represents the 16:9 ratio of a television screen. The present watch is numbered 84 of a limited edition of 88 pieces only and features a unusual mechanism driving the hour disc. The time is displayed through an aperture on a disc that is driven by an array of rods and an arched sector for retrograde minutes. As soon as the minute hand reaches 60 minutes, a connecting rod would arm a small spring with an inertia block, which will drive the rotation of the hour disc.
