BRITISH SUMMERTIME

Harrods has put the spotlight on exclusive rereleases with Hublot unveiling a Classic Fusion trio based on shades of grey.

Harrods has been a go-to London address in the luxury world since 1856 and last year the Fine Watch Room, a space devoted to premium timepieces, transformed to present a cutting-edge selection of watches based on a specific theme in summer. 2016 paid tribute to craftsmanship and this year collectors will be pleased to see it’s all about limited edition rereleases! Hublot has unveiled three Classic Fusion Harrods Special Edition timepieces for Harrods’ theme. What do they all have in common? A sunburst “racing grey” dial designed in partnership with the department store blending the ultimate in contemporary British style with a more international feel. They all house a self-winding movement with a 42-hour power reserve in a polished-satin finished titanium case.

There are two 45mm limited edition watches: a 3 hand-date Classic Fusion and a chronograph (20 and 40 available). The third watch stands out for its 38mm case and bezel glittering with 36 diamonds (20 available).

Hublot has blended a black rubber strap with grey leather to match the case and dial on the Classic Fusion Harrods Special Edition. There you have it; you need attitude to nail British style!

Price: €9,000 (Classic) – €12,000 (Diamond Classic) – €12,000 (Chronograph)
