During the build up to the Brazilian Grand Prix, Hublot unveil two new pieces, the King Power Ayrton Senna and the King Power Tourbillon Ayrton Senna.? Previous Senna tribute pieces by Hublot have formed part of the Big Bang collection, but since the release of the King Power F1 to celebrate the brand becoming F1′s Official Watchmaker, it is a natural progression that these special timepieces should now form part of the King Power portfolio.Recently I had a conversation with a young F1 fan about the current F1 season, and how exciting it is that the Driver’s Championship is still open as the last few races approach – obvious comparisons to the Prost/Senna end-of-season championship battles were made, and it was with great sadness that I realised that the young lad had never witnessed Senna race, had never seen him animate a qualifying session to claim pole position in the last few seconds.? In 1994 when the world mourned the premature death of Ayrton Senna even those who did not follow F1 racing quickly realised that someone very special had been lost.? This year Senna would have celebrated his fiftieth birthday.The King Power Ayrton Senna measures 48mm and as you would expect the materials used are cutting-edge – carbon fibre and ceramic bezel with titanium screws, a 48mm carbon fibre case and a matt black carbon dial with a very trick power reserve indicator comprising green, blue and red dots an ingenious design which takes F1 inspired themes to a whole new level.The Hublot King Power Senna - note the super cool power reserve indicatorThe movement is the Hublot Calibre HUB4247 with Split Seconds Chronograph function.? The sapphire crystal is stamped with the signature of Ayrton Senna in yellow matching the hands and indices in this otherwise boldly dark timepiece.? The King Power Ayrton Senna comes presented on a black Nomex and rubber strap.THe Hublot King Power Ayrton Senna The King Power Tourbillon Ayrton Senna is powered by the Hublot Calibre? HUB6300, a column-wheel chronograph with clutch tourbillon escapement coupled directly onto the cage.? Again high-tech materials are used – carbon fibre case, ceramic bezel with circular satin finishing and titanium screws.? The power reserve is positioned over at the 9 o’clock position.The Hublot King Power Ayrton Senna TourbillonThis very special piece will be an exclusive edition of just 10, each will feature a caseback engraving of one of Ayrton’s career achievements chosen for inclusion by his family.? The King Power Ayrton Senna Tourbillon comes presented on a striking yellow strap with green and blue stitching in honour of his nationality.In his lifetime Senna was an extremely generous individual donating large parts of his fortune to help the poor in Brazil, especially children and young people.? He was an astute businessman with a flair for marketing his own brand “Senna”.? On his death, this charitable work continued with the founding by his family of the “Instituto Ayrton Senna” which continues to transform the lives of thousands.? It is in keeping with this spirit of generousity that Hublot collaborate with the institution to create the Senna timepieces and share with them the profits.Popularity: 11% [?]|||No Comment Hublot F1 King Power MonzaPosted bySylvia McElherroninSeptember 12th 2010Hublot build on their superb F1 portfolio of watches with the latest -? the Hublot F1 King Power Monza.?

Uniquely the King Power Monza features a red tinted sapphire crystal which Hublot describe as resulting in? “unprecedented brightness”, and if the image is anything to go by it would appear that? M. Biver and his creative team have once again produced a stunner.? It seems to me that of late, whether it is in matters of trick design details or global marketing, Hublot have the uncanny ability to cause other in the industry to wonder “now why didn’t we think of that…..?”Hublot f1 King Power MonzaThe 48mm piece features an openworked dial with an added layer of sapphire crystal. The hour markers and F1 logo at the 9 o’clock position have been applied to this crystal? giving an ethereal 3D impression.?

A few weeks ago Hublot became the first official timekeeper in the history of the FIFA World Cup, perhaps marketing strategists at Omega etc also deserve a Big Bang….on the ear, for letting that one slip by.Popularity: 4% [?]|||No Comment Confr��rie Horlog��re Hublot LibertyPosted bySylvia McElherroninMarch 28th 2010Confr��rie Horlog��re Hublot unveil Liberty, a remarkable bullet-shaped timepiece designed to be worn as a bracelet, pendant or simply used as a tactile horological stress-buster.Measuring 53.75mm long and 27mm wide, the gun cartridge type case is a combination of black aluminium and titanium.?

Depeche Mode.Greatest ‘rock’ bands off all time I hear you wonder? Yes. Have you caught them live? If you have, you’ll know what I mean.In all, Depeche Mode have released 12 albums, the latest of which, Sounds of the Universe is touring Europe at the minute. If you can get to see them, go. It’s a fantastic experience which once again places the Basildon boys live as one of the most amazing and infectious concert bands in the world – everyone there knows every word of every song, and it’s incredible when they launch into a tune you think no-one else has ever heard except yourself and you look around and everyone in sight is either singing it aloud, or lip-syncing .What on earth do Depeche Mode, of all bands, have to do with a feature on The Watch Press? I’ll tell you.Some time ago a strange box appeared on the Depeche Mode and Hublot websites which, in countdown style, announced the imminent unveiling of a series of twelve one-of-a-kind Hublot Big Bang/Depeche Mode watches – each one representing one of the twelve albums with an image of the cover art portrayed in a strip across the otherwise black face of the watch – and, as is typical of effervescent Hublot boss, Jean-Claude Biver and the members of the band, the two globally recognized names will collaborate – in the case of the band, to carry out the opening proceedings in London’s Royal Albert Hall in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust with a one-off gig on February 17th, and Hublot in putting the twelve pieces up for exclusive auction to raise funds for the charity.All twelve Hublot Big Bang Chronographs come in a black ceramic case on a croco leather strap with hand-stitching matching exactly the colour theme of the album being represented.I’m pleased to post some of the first images of each of the twelve Depeche Mode Big Bang watches below.

The Hublot La Cl�� Du Temps watch meaning "the key of time" is a modern replica of the former version of La Clef du Temps watch that has a very unique movement able to speed up and slow down time. The time can be altered to run slower or faster, but always switched back to normal, so the name of the watch is the most suitable to mark this special functionality.The original La Clef du Temps was designed by Mathias Buttet and it was inspired by the Predator, while the dial should have looked like a brain. The La Clef du Temps belonged to Confrerie Horlongere under BNB Concept. When it had to face bankruptcy, the Confrerie was bought by Hublot. The same concept of controlling time took the shape of the new La Cl�� du Temps watch, a watch different from any other that the brand has ever created. This updated version is integrated in the Hublot Confrerie, the Hublot division for exclusive very high-end watches. The sophisticated watch features a more futuristic design than the original version and a new case to include the ingenious movement, as Hublot changed the format of the dial.But how the mechanism of this watch works so that it can alter time? Basically, using tourbillon based revolutionary movement and a speed selector. But let`s detail a little bit. It all begins with a vertically mounted tourbillon based movement (the tourbillion protrudes of the bottom area of the watch). The watch dial that indicates the time is on the upper right of the dial while a power reserve indicator is placed on the lower left. Above the indicator, there is the selector which can speed up or slow down the time. The crown on the left side of the Hublot La Cl�� Du Temps watch gives you the unique opportunity to alter the time as you wish, running it whether fast or slow. It is important to know that even if you can jiggle with time, the La Cl�� Du Temps stores the correct time, so you can easily return to “normal” mode. The Hublot La Cl�� Du Temps watch is in fact a metaphor about the concept of controlling time. Having it on your wrist can make pleasant moments last longer while for unpleasant ones time can run faster. Unfortunately, this is only a matter of perception and the key of time is as relative as everything on this world.Hublot La Cl�� Du Temps Watch Pictures Gallery
