HUBLOT - FORBIDEN X EDITION

Hublot brand presents us with a new Hublot Classic Fusion Forbiden X, which is the second collaboration of the brand with Arturo Fuente...

This watch was launched in Dubai, during the event that led to one place the best connoisseurs of cigars and greatest watch collectors, Ricardo Guadalupe, Executive Director of the Hublot brand and Carlos Fuente Jr., grandson of the founder of the cigar factory. The dial of this unique watch is made of real tobacco leaves, the same ones used in the production of prestigious Forbiden X cigars.

These sheets were sent from the Fuente estate in Santo Domingo to Hublot production workshops in Switzerland, so that the engineers of these magnificent watches could incorporate them in the face of the dial, using a complicated technical process that includes adhesive resin, which solidified and stabilized them.

Each of these watches is presented in a box that resembles a treasure chest, and that after opening reveals its wooden hygrometer, specially designed by Hublot brand, in order to properly regulate the humidity in the space in which to keep valuable cigars. With a diameter of 45 mm, this watch was made in shades of brown, which harmoniously merge with the color of the dial, which is derived from tobacco leaves.

With brown ceramic base, it is presented in four different versions: there are bases of titanium, version with black ceramic base, King Gold or special red gold developed by Hublot brand containing 5% platinum and version that is somewhat more luxurious and equipped with a tourbillion mechanism.

This newer version of the watch is available as a limited edition of only 30 numbered pieces. The leaves of tobacco that are used to create the dial reveal the tourbillion mechanism HUB6011 with 155 components and a five-day energy reserve. This watch is entirely manufactured by Hublot engineers and watchmakers, and the set is completed by a leather belt in shades of tobacco, with the symbol Forbiden X.
