Hublot opens a door to the future of watchmaking.
Hublot’s latest horological masterpiece, the MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System Titanium, marks a departure from traditional watchmaking norms, reinventing key components and design elements to offer a truly avant-garde timepiece.
This eagerly anticipated Manufacture Piece (MP) is a striking departure from the conventional with its absence of a dial, hands, or oscillating weight. Instead, it features a roller display, a circular power reserve, and an inclined tourbillon automatic winding system powered by two linear weights.
The MP-10 immediately captivates with its sleek design, rounded angles, and a sapphire crystal of unparalleled complexity. The movement housed within is a fusion of form and substance, where mechanical and aesthetic prowess are inseparable, a defining principle for the MP collections.
Distinctive in its disruption of movement, display, and complications, the MP-10 is not a mere concept or style exercise but a complete, accomplished, and practical watch that will soon adorn the wrists of a select few collectors, with its production limited to just 50 pieces.
Characterizing this timepiece involves impressive figures: 592 components, 5 years of R&D, 2 linear weights, 1 inclined tourbillon, and a circular power reserve. The MP-10 is a complex creation that embodies the brand’s commitment to pushing boundaries.
Dispensing with traditional hands, the MP-10 relies on four constantly rotating displays for hours, minutes, seconds, and a circular power reserve. The absence of a dial merges the calibre with the face, allowing the gaze to be drawn directly to the mechanism for time reading. The vertical alignment of indications, facilitated by an inventive design, eliminates traditional space constraints.
Reinventing automatic winding, Hublot’s engineers devised a verticalized weight system on both sides of the central architecture, wound bidirectionally with a unique system of shock absorbers. This exclusive development, pending a patent, gives the MP-10 a power reserve exceeding 48 hours.
The exterior matches the complexity of the movement, featuring a simple case construction in shiny micro-blasted titanium. However, the sapphire crystal atop the case is Hublot’s most intricate to date, with inclined planes on three axes. The integrated rubber strap is also the most refined ever designed by the Manufacture.
In conclusion, Hublot’s MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System Titanium is an unprecedented expression of complexity and innovation, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional watchmaking.
