The Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph in Yellow Gold utilizes a MHUB1153 automatic link chronograph caliber with a 42-hour power reserve. It comes in link a 42mm case. Case is 18k yellow gold fitted to a link rubber strap and is priced at $26,800.
While nothing about the watch is link new in terms of the case design, movement, or even the strap, this piece link does represent a first for link the brand: It's the first time Zenith has housed the 9004 movement inside of a green ceramic case.
This is the watch that Hurley had on his wrist when we met for the Talking Watches shoot. It's a lovely and very subtle 36mm Rolex Datejust 16220 with a white link dial, Roman numerals, and a steel engine-turned bezel. These days, Hurley wears link it on a matching oyster bracelet, link but that's not how the watch was delivered...
While I long for the days of Santos ref. 2961 it would be so fun to see Cartier bring back this super distinctive octagonal variation. I link love that this smaller size was available with an automatic movement. All of the mechanical versions have tiny bubble backs which feel super retro but I would happily take a bubble back case if link it link meant I could finally have small, design-driven watches with mechanical movements.
The exaggerated domed sapphire crystal protecting the dial, dauphine hands, and handsome stainless steel beads of rice style bracelet also harken to quintessential 1950s style while resisting any stuffy link labeling that can plague some classic or timeless link watches. The link signature golden double seahorse motif rests above six o'clock, while the funky oscillating anchor that was featured on the original Golden Horse sits below the twelve o'clock position.
