Hublot New Design Watches Inspired by the Rarest Cigar
300Magazine is happy to introduce three Hublot new design watches released to celebrate 20 years of the world’s rarest cigar Fuente Opus X.
The collaboration between the renowned Swiss luxury watch brand and Arturo Fuente goes back to 2012, which marked the 100th anniversary of the Fuente Foundation. Since then, Hublot has released two models of exceptional high-end watches, but its new Classic Fusion Fuente 20th Anniversary Special Edition exceeds all expectations. Both Fuente Opus X cigars and Hublot new design watches are real masterpieces that cannot be missed by connoisseurs of finer things!
Hublot Classic Fusion Fuente Ref. 511.OX.6689.GR.OPX16
The first model features a precious 45mm black brushed King gold case engraved with tobacco leaf motifs that form the iconic letter X used for decorating the rings of the Fuente Opus X cigars. The case back is lacquered on center and engraved with the illustration of the Fuente family. Its gradient mat blue to brown dial with double-X décor bears polished 18k red gold-plated hands and indexes. This watch is presented on a brown alligator leather strap that is traditionally lined with rubber for greater comfort.

The second piece of Classic Fusion Fuente new design watches comes in a 45mm black brushed titanium case with the same engravings as in the King gold edition. Its stunning gradient blue to brown dial features rhodium-plated appliques to match the overall color scheme. The luxury watch is fitted with a gray alligator leather strap that is also lined with rubber.

Last but not least is the Classic Fusion Fuente enclosed in a 45mm polished and satin finished black ceramic case with a more simplified bezel also cut from black ceramic. However, its case back is still decorated with the engraved depiction of the Fuente family. The ceramic model is complemented by the same gradient dial with 18k red gold-plated hands and indexes. The strap is black alligator with rubber base.
All three Hublot new design watches are equipped with an in-house self-winding mechanical movement, caliber HUB1112, which ensures a 42-hour power reserve, and have water resistance of up to 50 meters. Each commemorative Classic Fusion Fuente 20th Anniversary Special Edition is limited to a production of only 20 pieces worldwide.
