Hublot brings back the Classic Fusion Original - the watch that launched it all 42 years ago
By SENATUS Magazine | 11 January 2023

When "the Hublot" with its gold case and a simple rubber strap was first launched, it shook conventions back in 1980, stirring up shock waves with its audacity. Fast forward 42 years later, the model that spawned the juggernaut that is Hublot the Nyon manufacture is now an icon, and has now been relaunched as a limited edition Classic Fusion Original, available in only 500 pieces.

Echoes of Carlo Crocco’s original design are recognizable in the rubber strap, the purity of the polished black lacquered dial that is only distracted by time, embodied by the facetted hands; the yellow gold and the Maison’s hallmark signature. At first sight, seemingly similar to the original, the brand's logo has become more modern and contemporary over time.

The newly-released Classic Fusion Original is available in yellow gold, titanium and ceramic, in sizes across 42, 38 and 33 mm. The 6 famous screws place their hallmark on the bezels and their sapphire case backs reveal the mechanical parts - all these Hublot’s iconic details bring the original watch up to date, to undoubtedly make it a new timeless, classic.
