As the UAE contemplates its significant journey over the past 50 years and begins preparing for the next 50, Swiss luxury watch Manufacture Hublot praises the country for its remarkable achievements and reaffirms their shared values: linking tradition and innovation, bringing the past to the future. To honor that, Hublot and its UAE partner Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons are proud to launch a new embodiment of the Art of Fusion: the Classic Fusion Chronograph Concrete Sand.
Designed and produced at the Hublot Manufacture in Switzerland, the Classic Fusion Concrete Sand is housed in a 45mm case with a matching bezel, both cut out of fine concrete, with minute detailing evoking UAE cities’ edges and structure. As an industrious material, concrete is noteworthy for its strength and endurance.
A testament to the country’s vast deserts, the dial features actual sand from the UAE, making each piece unique. The straps are made of high-quality camel leather and complement the watch’s captivating color scheme.
This homage to the history of the UAE and the innovative spirit of the luxury Swiss watchmaker is limited to 100 pieces.
Hublot
Founded in Switzerland in 1980, HUBLOT is defined by its innovation, which began with the highly original combination of gold and rubber. This “Art of Fusion” stems from the imagination of its visionary Chairman, Jean-Claude Biver, and has been driven forward by CEO Ricardo Guadalupe since 2012.
The release of the iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 paved the way for new flagship collections (Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang), with complications ranging from the simple to the highly sophisticated, establishing the extraordinary DNA of the Swiss watchmaking house and ensuring its impressive growth.
Keen to preserve its traditional and cutting-edge expertise, and guided by its philosophy to “Be First, Different and Unique”, the Swiss watchmaker is consistently ahead of the curve, through its innovations in materials (scratch-resistant Magic Gold, ceramics in vibrant colours, sapphire), and the creation of Manufacture movements (Unico, Meca-10, Tourbillon).
HUBLOT is fully committed to creating an Haute Horlogerie brand with a visionary future: a future which is fused with the key events of our times (FIFA World CupTM, UEFA Champions League, UEFA EUROTM) and the finest ambassadors our era has to offer (Chiara Ferragni, Pelé, Kylian Mbappé, Usain Bolt, Novak Djokovic).
