BACKSTORY

There is, apparently, a special love for the colourful city of London in the heart of Hublot. This year, that fondness culminates in the release of a special 50-piece limited-edition watch, the Classic Fusion Special Edition ‘London’. There’s a lot to admire on this timepiece, but one feature that definitely stands out is sunray-finished racing style grey dial, as it is engraved with a Union Jack motif. Together with the black ceramic case and bezel as well as the black rubber strap – which, by the way, sports a tartan motif – the Classic Fusion Special Edition ‘London’ appears understated yet cool and confident. Finally, a flash of red at the tip of the seconds hand adds a sporty touch that contrasts nicely against the monochromatic timepiece.
