Classic Fusion Chronograph Orlinski Ceramic Orlinski Red (Runs) in Hublot’s Veins

The Classic Fusion Chronograph Orlinski has been paired with Hublot’s patented  red ceramic. The colour of life and of passion, redevokes Richard Orlinski’s first Born Wild Crocodile sculpture. Created in 2004, it features this vivid and powerful shade of red, which has since gone on to become the most recognisable colour in his menagerie.

 

WILD.  RED.  CERAMIC.

A  fascinating  yet  paradoxical  colour,  the  colour  red symbolises  the  sometimes-contradictory extremes  of  our  sentiments.  Love,  rage,  courage,  risk,  prohibition,  zeal…  A  watch  which  appeals  to  the  emotions.

 

WILD.  RED.CERAMIC.

A  few  months  ago,  at  Basel world  2018,  Hublot  expanded  its  catalogue  of  innovations  by  adding  a  new  feat:  the  first  ceramic  to  be  created  in  a  vibrant  colour.  Taking  four  years  to  develop  from  concept  to  industrialisation,  and requiring  innovations  in  materials  and  manufacturing  processes  (a  fusion  of  pressure  and  heat  which  sinters  the  ceramic  without  burning  its  pigments),  the  ceramic  created  is  harder  than  previously  seen  (1500  HV1  versus  1200  HV2).  This expertise  was  developed  in  tandem  by  Hublot’s  Research  &  Development department  and  Metallurgy  and  Materials  laboratory,  a  100%  in-house process,  resulting  in  a  secret  formula  protected  by  several  patents.

 

WILD.  RED.  CERAMIC.

Since  2017  Richard  Orlinski,  the  world’s  bestselling  contemporary  artist,  has  been  adding  his  angular  style  to  Hublot  watches.  Works of  art  for  the  wrist,  these  feature  his  signature  facets,  nuanced  with  angles  and  edges.  Like his  sculptures,  the  Classic  Fusion  Chronograph  Orlinski  Ceramic  boasts  the  sharp  three-dimensional  sculpted  lines  and  polished  finish  which  are  the  artist’s  trademark.

 

CLASSIC  FUSION  CHRONOGRAPH  ORLINSKI  CERAMIC

The  Classic  Fusion  Chronograph  Orlinski  Ceramic  is  released  in  a  limited  edition  of  200  pieces.  45  mm  of  art  and  innovation crafted  from  Hublot’s  red  ceramic.  From the  seconds  hand  to  the  counters  and  indexes;  from  the  case  to  the  bezel,  all  the  way  to  the  strap,  nothing  has  escaped  the  vivid  glow  of  Hublot  x  Orlinski  red.  Its  sapphire  case  back  reveals  the  HUB1155  self-winding  skeleton  chronograph  movement.
