Arturo Fuente and luxury watchmaker Hublot have announced the Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente King Gold watch. This ultra-premium timepiece is themed around the 25th anniversary of OpusX. It marks the sixth collaboration between these two brands.
This is the first Fuente-Hublot collaboration watch to use Hublot’s 42mm Classic Fusion Chronograph case. It is also the first where both the case and bezel use Hublot’s signature King Gold. Each watch features a laser-engraved motif of tobacco leaves but only on the bezel. The dial is an emerald green tone with a sunray-patterned finish and a gradient “fumé” effect that darkens towards the edges. The dial also features the 25th-anniversary edition of the OpusX logo. In addition, the watch has a green alligator band.
The watch also features an elaborate 18k King Gold case back. The case back is also engraved and lacquered with a special OpusX 25th Anniversary artwork. Beneath it beats the HUB1153 automatic chronograph calibre, with a power reserve of 48 hours.
“The honor and privilege of building such a wonderful relationship with Hublot, which I consider family, has been one of my greatest lifetime achievements. Over these many years of incredible success, we have been able to spread love all over the world!” commented Carlito Fuente of Arturo Fuente in a press release.
Hublot has also partnered with Arturo Fuente and the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation (CFCF). CFCF supports families in the Dominican Republic with education, health care, vocational training, and clean water. Hublot helped lay the foundation for CFCF’s Art Academy which has been operational since 2019. The launch of the watch was done to officially inaugurate the Art Academy.
The Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente King Gold edition is a limited edition of 50 pieces packaged in a unit that can be re-used as a humidor. These will be available at Hublot boutiques and authorized retailers.
