Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph

Posted on by

Back in 2008, Hublot was transforming the Big Bang with a reinterpretation towards a more classic sporty chic look. Featuring a black ceramic case and bezel framing a matte black dial, and a refined sober design with a finer profile, it remained resolutely true to the distinguished Big Bang design while rediscovering a more traditional side.

Today, Hublot presents the first Classic Fusion Chronograph. With a dial finished in matte black, two counters, baton indexes and a date window at 6 o’clock, this new product draws its elegance from the classic and timeless values of traditional watchmaking.
Equipped with the automatic mechanical movement HUB1143, the new Classic Fusion Chronograph is available in one size 45 mm, and in two versions: titanium and red gold 18K, a particularly intense colour of gold which is the fruit of a precious alloy developed by Hublot, and known as “King Gold”. It was by adding 5% platinum to the mass of melting gold that obtained this colour, whose visual impact is reinforced by the contrast with the other components, which are finished in black.
