In a rare collaboration, Hublot and artist Richard Orlinski partnered to create a watch collection designed by Orlinski. He's known for his Wild Kong gorilla and crocodile sculptures, crafted using geometric angles and futuristic styles. Their newest collaboration takes the Classic Fusion Tourbillon 5-Day Power Reserve watch to new artistic heights. In this version, the 45mm watch is totally skeletonized and see-through, allowing a grand view of the highly sculpted manual-wind HUB6021 manufacture movement and bridges. The complex caliber consists of 183 finely finished components and is equipped with a one-minute tourbillon. The transparent sapphire case, faceted bezel and the case-to-bracelet lugs are all sculpted - requiring hundreds of hours of machining and polishing to reinforce the artist's style. It is finished with a transparent rubber strap.

Fusing the past and present, craftsmanship with innovation and art with timekeeping, Hublot creates futuristic timepieces that despite their convention to watchmaking tradition, are truly unconventional. The first brand to dare combine gold with rubber in the same watch and to create an entirely ceramic-encased tourbillon, Hublot does not follow the pack. From its unique Unico automatic chronographs, revolutionary motor functions and unparalleled power reserve found in the Meca-10 tourbillon and MP-11 calibers, Hubolt pays homage to all scopes of human capability.Having partnered with sportsmen, artists, musicians and chefs, the brand's creative potential is also constantly challenged and refined in having to accommodate all wrists. Working also with Kevin Pietersean and his platform Save Our Rhino, and with the Polar Pod - a zero-emission, ecological explorer vessel - Hublot's dedication to being futuristic not only lies in its design, but in its values that seek to preserve our planet.
