2023 has kicked off with the LVMH Watch Week 2023 where Bulgari, TAG Heuer, Hublot and Zenith join forces to present some of their novelties in Singapore. As part of the new models presented by Hublot for the beginning of this year, we have a modern take on the Classic Fusion and several new versions of Big Bangs or Spirit of Big Bang models. Here’s an overview of everything that has been presented by the brand.

Hublot Classic Fusion Original 42mm, 38mm and 33mm

The origins of Hublot go back to 1980 with a luxury sports watch standing out with unprecedented combinations of materials, in particular gold and rubber. Hublot revisits its emblematic Classic Fusion in three different sizes – 42mm, 38mm or 33mm – each available in 3 materials – steel, ceramic or gold. The overall look is close to the original. Yet, there are several changes. Starting with the case, it has been modernized with a simpler, more angular design and black details wedged in between the case middle and the bezel. If the 33mm version is powered by a quartz movement, the larger models feature the automatic calibre HUB1110 with 42 hours of power reserve (base Sellita SW300-1). More information about this watch in an upcoming hands-on article soon.

SAXEM stands for Sapphire Aluminium oXide and rare Earth Mineral and is an alloy of aluminium oxide, the basic component of sapphire, with rare earth elements like thulium and holmium as well as chromium.
