Thread: Hublot Ferrari Big Bang Chrono Tourbillon and Hublot F1 King Power Interlagos Watch

And so it begins…

Girard-Perregaux disappointed. Panerai fared only slightly better. And now Hublot becomes the third fourth (five if you count the highly limited Cabestan Scuderia) high-end watch brand to try its hand with Official Ferrari-themed watches. Live from Guangzhou, China, Hublot unveiled the first genuine Ferrari-Stamped Hublot watch – a pure collectors’ item of just 20 pieces. This watch was expected given Hublot’s recent announcement of its global partnership with Ferrari, but rest assured that it is only a teaser — we can expect one if not multiple Hublot-Ferrari watches to be unveiled next March at Baselworld 2012 (I’ll be bringing You the first looks, of course).










Not the most flattering live photos but.....













Hublot F1 King Power Interlagos Watch

Hublot recently concluded the 2011 F1 season at the Interlagos circuit in Sao Paulo with the unveiling of the F1 King Power Interlagos watch. This marks the second new Hublot F1 watch unveiled this month and the eighth model overall for the Hublot F1 collection. The watch is in the now familiar F1 King Power theme, except the cobalt blue color which is found in the centre of the Brazilian flag (pantone 280, anyone?). Also this watch comes on a hornback alligator strap rather than the often seen Nomex-style strap.

Hublot F1 King Power Interlagos Watch

Limited, Numbered edition of 250 pieces

48mm carbon fiber case, ceramic F1 “brake disc” style bezel, automatic mechanical chronograph movement, horback alligator strap with cobalt blue stitching

Dislike the choice of ripping off the AP Safari strap, as if the case/bezel designs not close enough to that of the ROO already.

I dont know about u guys, but the tourbillon is horrible to me. The f1 looks pretty cool though.

That was my exact first impression but i would need to see it in person have trouble beleiving a tourb would look that bad. I love the blue color scheme of the F1 Interlagos.

I like them all. Any indication on msrp?

Meh, to be fair, I doubt AP was the first to use hornback gator hides for straps and I doubt they'll be the last.

That being said, I'm not a big fan of the designs of either.

I didn't see any pricing but this is all really new stuff.

Agreed. Plus the fact that they have a smiliar shape and construction it stands to reason some of its parts are bound to show a resemblance.

The blue F1 isn't bad, but I much prefer Audemars.
