WARRANTY

In this manual, you will find basic instructions for the use and maintenance of your 

watch.

Each HYT watch has an individual identification number, which guarantees both its 

authenticity and the fact that all work related to its creation was supervised by a 

master,  but  also  that  all  work  related  to  its  creation  was  supervised  by  a  master 

watchmaker [sic].

Each HYT watch has a fluid module1. This mechanism allows the time to be displayed 

through  a  meniscus

  The  meniscus  marks  the  limit  between  the  two  immiscible 

fluids in the capillary

4.

 The movement of the watch drives the module through the 

bellow

replace this fluid system. It also has a unique serial number.

or checks.

the date of purchase, if the watch was bought from an approved HYT dealer.  No

dealers approved by HYT or our customer service department.

Any repair or maintenance work carried out by third parties not approved by HYT

expense.
