Hautlence has never been one to follow the norms. Since its founding in 2004, the brand has consistently pushed the boundaries of horology, delivering creations that captivate the imagination and bring to life concepts typically reserved for dreams. From the original HL to the remarkable HL2 and the mesmerizing HL Sphere, each handmade timepiece showcases a deep commitment to both artistry and mechanical ingenuity.
Named as an anagram of Neuchâtel, the birthplace of watchmaking, Hautlence has long been an integral part of independent horology. Now based in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, the brand is renowned for its signature TV-shaped case and avant-garde approach to timekeeping. Whether it’s hours displayed on chains and spheres or minutes shown through rotating sapphire discs, Hautlence reinterprets traditional watchmaking while seamlessly integrating technical innovation.
In 2022, Hautlence embarked on an exciting new chapter, refining its signature aesthetic with a modern and sportier approach. Leading this evolution is the Linear Series 1, a groundbreaking timepiece featuring an all-new method of displaying time, the brand’s ninth in-house calibre, and a redesigned case with an integrated rubber strap, offering water resistance up to 10 ATM. This bold direction is only the beginning of what’s to come.
