Hublot will pull covers off its first extra-thin skeleton watch, a Classic Fusion with a refined design which preserves the true mark of being a Hublot chronograph, this year at BaselWorld. An inspirational change from the Big Bang trend, this 45 mm diameter watch features a 2.90 mm solid movement which has been designed in-house. On the dial side you can see the tiny seconds at 7 o’clock and the watch hands are reminiscent of the first Hublot watches, adding a historic and classic feel.

Offered in a “satin finished Classic Fusion” 45-mm diameter case versions: the titanium case watch is limited to 1000 units while an 18-carat King Gold variant is restricted to just 500 pieces. The watch boasts of a 90-hour power back up and 50-metre waterproof abilities. The watch also presents a Sapphire dial face with silvered or red gold Hublot logo. Finished with a Black alligator strap stitched onto black rubber with a clasp based buckle in black PVD steel or 18K red gold, depending on which model you choose.
