Every watch collector searches for exclusivity - a limited-edition piece perhaps, or a vintage silhouette reimagined. As luck would have it, Hublot marries the two with a reprise of its Essential Grey collection. The 2024 release - an Essential Grey timepiece is unveiled once a year, every year - is the Classic Fusion Essential Grey. Available online only, there are two timepieces up for grabs - a 42mm and 45mm iteration. Both come with 100 per cent titanium cases and bezels, integrated bracelets, textured rubber straps and sunray-finished dials, while the mechanisms have been calibrated according to each timepiece's size.
The Essential Grey collection thus far includes Big Bang Unico Essential Grey and Spirit of Big Bang Essential Grey; the choice to release a Classic Fusion model in a grey colourway celebrates the House's commitment to watchmaking, innovation and craftsmanship and acts as a tribute to one of Hublot's founding models. "The Essential Grey is one of our most eagerly awaited recurring series," explains Hublot CEO, Ricardo Guadalupe. "It's the kind of curve ball we like at Hublot. At a time when so many brands and studios are struggling to guess what the next colour trend will be, we have decided to keep this essential grey, unique and different, year after year, because we know it will be a timeless collector's item."
