Hublot reveals a new watch in partnership with Chelsea FC – The London skyline always in blue


CLASSIC FUSION CHRONOGRAPH #chelseafc

Hublot and #chelseafc celebrated their longstanding partnership with the launch of a new Classic Fusion Chronograph #chelseafc limited edition timepiece high above the London skyline at One Blackfriars. #hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe and #chelseafc players (Cesar Azpilicueta, Willy Caballero, Ruben Loftus Cheek, Christian Pulisic, and Antonio Rudiger) arrived by boat from Stamford Bridge having passed several iconic London locations and were greeted by a round of applause from the invited guests.

Guests were treated to a 360° view of the iconic London skyline from the exclusive event space, open to the public for the first time. Chelsea FC’s signature blue colour draped the elegant interiors and a cutting-edge virtual reality experience allowed guests to seamlessly interact with the attending players. A striking blue light-show and drummers marked the reveal of the new #hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph #chelseafc, a tribute to the exquisite watchmaking of #hublot and the victorious spirit of #chelseafc. The footballers and guests interacted with the timepiece and continued to enjoy the spectacular views of central London, the home of #chelseafc.

The new limited edition Classic Fusion Chronograph #chelseafc follows two previous successful editions created in partnership with the celebrated football club. The timepiece showcases Chelsea FC’s signature blue through the innovative use of coloured ceramic. The 45mm case and bezel showcase a deep satin-finished and polished blue ceramic, combined with a blue dial with silver counters. The watch is powered by the HUB1143 self-winding chronograph movement with a 42-hour power reserve and the finishing touch is provided by the lined blue rubber strap and #chelseafc logo. The timepiece is limited to 100 pieces and engraved with « Limited Edition 100Num » and « Pride of London », perfectly tailored to complement the wardrobe of a dedicated #chelseafc supporter.

The partnership between #hublot and #chelseafc continues to go from strength to strength. The new Classic Fusion Chronograph #chelseafc is the third limited edition created in association with the legendary club. The timepiece embodies the vision of #hublot and #chelseafc to lead the way in their respective fields. The bold watch is a reflection of the style of football #chelseafc plays and has been created as a piece fans can wear with pride in support of “the Blues”. #hublot has a great partnership with #chelseafc built over the years and a reflection of our commitment to #excellence in football. Next year #hublot will be the Official Timekeeper of the UEFA Euro 2020, an exciting moment for #hublot and European football.
Ricardo Guadalupe CEO HUBLOT

We are delighted to be Hublot’s first club partner to launch a third limited edition design. Each limited edition so far has held a unique story for the Club and this piece is no different. The young, bold and vibrant blue design is a great reflection of the style of football we are currently playing. For our fans who are so proud to be a Blue, this design demonstrates that pride perfectly. We’d like to thank #hublot for this special design and their continued partnership.
