FIFA fever hits every football fan, and if you are a brand associated with the mega gala event, it’s time to make the most of the opportunity at hand. After becoming the Official Timekeeper and Official Watch for the next two FIFA World Cups for the year 2010 and 2014, Hublot just launched limited edition official licensed watch for the FIFA World Cup.
This is the first time in the history of the FIFA World Cup that a watchmaking brand becomes the Official FIFA Timekeeper having presence on the substitution board. The watch encased inside a 44mm diameter 18carat rose gold casing has FIFA World Cup Trophy engraved on its back. With sapphire being the crystal, it has an interior with anti-reflective treatment. The crown is 5N solid gold. The dial face is beautifully made in satin finished 18 carat gold, beveled and polished.
The main plate is sandblasted and rhodium- plated. Alongside it also sports gold watch hangs, gold appliqués and a relief appliqué of the FIFA World Cup Trophy at 6 o’clock. Its Swiss automatic caliber HUB1112 movement is adorned by 21 jewels and comes with 28,800 vph, a 42-hour power reserve and 50-meter water resistance. It comes with adjustable black alligator gummy straps and the screws are made of Titanium.
The watch will be limited to only 100 pieces numbered from 001/100 to 100/100.
