Hautlence, a brand which we first heard about at last year's Baselworld, has a new collection. The HLs collection is a bit more masculine and rugged than the previous incarnation. Rubber straps and brushed steel give the watches a more modern look and they have changed the shape a bit so it doesn't have that television style look as much anymore. The watches use jump hour discs and retrograde minutes to create a three-dimensional timekeeping experience all within a distinctive looking case. The watches are a limited edition of 88 pieces and come in titanium, white gold, pink gold with alligator straps and rubber bands. They are water resistant to 50 meters and have sapphire crystals.

VERY NICE. This face cluster is one of the few that really works for me. They often look too much but this is quite perfect. Black on black is best.

Does anyone else find the secondary minute dial below redundant ? I mean, it is blocked by the minute hand anyway, so why even bother? I would much rather see that space occupy a power reserve or do away with it altogether. Great watch otherwise though.

I heard that the prices for these are in the Richard Mille range, can anyone concur?
