Hotel management company Oekter Collectionare and the watchmaker continue their relationship with the new timepieces. The two new Classic Fusion models are added to the Eden Being collection. A 45 mm chronograph version provides a glimpse of the self-winding movement, and a second 38 mm version dazzles, set with 36 brilliant-cut diamonds. “Ultra-limited” is not an exaggeration; only 25 pieces of each model were made. Each can be engraved with the initials of its future owner. The timepieces will be first available at Eden Rock at St. Barths, as well as the Oetker Collection network and Hublot boutiques.

The two watches have details that keep the rich history of the hotel alive. As far back as the 1950s, Eden Rock was frequently visited by a clientele that included some of the world’s biggest celebrities, from music to cinema and literature. Olympic champion Usain Bolt was present for the unveiling.

“Eden Rock–Saint Barths has played host to glittering stars including Greta Garbo. Excellence, exclusivity and exuberance are just a few of the qualities that Hublot and Oetker Collection share to delight their clientele,” said Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot. “Its forthcoming reopening provides an opportunity to renew our collaboration through a Classic Fusion model for men and one for women. Even though, once there, you are sure to stop counting the hours.”

The HUB1155 skeleton self-winding chronograph highlights the collaboration with Eden Rock St. Barths at the 3 o’clock mark. The second watch is quite lovely with precious diamonds that symbolize eternity. The white lacquer on the dial is set with 10 rubies, and the Eden Rock logo is featured at the 12 o’clock mark.

“Hublot has always strived to deliver something different and unique,” said Fabrice Moizan, CEO of Eden Rock St. Barths. “This really echoes our motto of being so much more than just a hotel. Our dear guests and friends will undoubtedly appreciate those two exclusive timepieces.”

Both editions have the option of three straps: a white alligator strap delicately edged with red thread, along with white and red full rubber straps, both finely ribbed.

The watch recognizably features the famous Eden Rock red color as a proud ambassador of the “perfect getaway” to be found at Eden Rock.
