Honoring Legacy and Craftsmanship: Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente King Gold

Hublot and Arturo Fuente celebrate the 25th anniversary of the legendary Fuente Fuente OpusX cigar with a striking timepiece: the Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente King Gold. Limited to just 50 pieces, this watch honors the shared commitment to excellence and artistry that defines both brands.

A Tribute to Excellence

Unveiled in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, the birthplace of Arturo Fuente’s world-renowned cigars, the Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente King Gold commemorates a quarter-century of the Fuente Fuente OpusX legacy. This sixth edition in the collaboration marks the first time the series is housed in a 42mm Classic Fusion Chronograph case, entirely crafted in 18K King Gold. A laser-engraved motif of tobacco leaves embellishes the bezel, a nod to the heritage and craftsmanship of Fuente cigars.

A Design Rooted in Celebration

The dial of the Classic Fusion Arturo Fuente King Gold features a vibrant emerald green sunray finish with a fumé gradient that darkens toward the edges, adding depth and contrast. The anniversary edition OpusX logo, rendered in gold and green, adorns the constant seconds subdial at 3 o’clock. Completing the design is a green alligator leather strap lined with black rubber, blending luxury and durability seamlessly.

A Caseback Worth Discovering

The solid 18K King Gold caseback is intricately engraved with OpusX 25th anniversary artwork, an exclusive detail reserved for the owner. Beneath this elegant caseback lies the HUB1153 self-winding chronograph movement. Operating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour), this caliber offers a 48-hour power reserve.
