Hublot Watch Care and Service
Hublot watches stand tall among luxury watch brands. While they belong to the elite Swiss watch category, they have neither a rich history nor long years. But what they have is the power of innovation and the ability to charm their patron with their quality. Pronounced as ‘Ooh-Blow’, Hublot was founded in 1980 by Carlo Crocco.
Hublot was named after the French word “porthole“. Hublot was the first watch to have a natural rubber strap. This strap was created after 3 long years of research. Hublot had a less than stellar start on its debut day in 1980, Basel Watch Fair. However, Hublot’s fortune changed and within its first year, it was able to amass sales of over $US2 million.
Watch lovers are familiar with this brand. It is one of the newest and without a doubt one of the most popular luxury watch brands. But what makes Hublot one so desirable amongst watches that have a bigger legacy?
Let’s take a close look at what made Hublot one of the most preferred watches
What makes Hublot so popular?
Materials they use
Hublot has never shied away from innovation, they choose to deliberately part from conventions in the quest for the unexplored. Hublot was the first watch brand to combine and use gold and rubber in the same watch.
Their use of diverse materials in non-traditional settings is their way of bringing past and present together. Their watches are a result of remarkable craftsmanship combined with ingenious designs and inventive material.
The range of materials they use includes Magic Gold (developed and patented by Hublot), Ceramic, Sapphire, Rubber, Stainless Steel, Titanium, King Gold, and Carbon Fiber.
Unique Movements
Hublot watches are created to have impeccable accuracy in time telling. Movement is the heart of the watch and Hublot has combined the skills of watchmaking with ingenuity. Hublot developed a set of unique “in-house” movements.
These have been created to be exceptional in every way. Hublot’s movements include Unico, Unico 2, Meca-10 10-Day Power Reserve, Tourbillon Power Reserve 5 Days, MP-11 and Automatic Tourbillon.
Apart from these, there are Hub 4700, Hub 1770, and Hub 1710. All of this makes Hublot a perfect blend of performance, utility, and design.
Manufacture
Creating a watch that can hold a spot in a market flooded with watches that have a long history is not easy. Watchmaking is the art of bringing together advanced technology, skilled craftsmanship, and elegant design.
At Hublot, various teams are involved in watchmaking who work in perfect synergy, to produce outstanding watches that contribute to the evolution of watchmaking.
Everything from the production of components used in watches, the movement, the dials, strap, and much, is a long and ardent process that involves minds that work to bring creativity and machine precision together to create something unique.
