Hublot and its Dubai partner Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons have released two special editions - Classic Fusion Black Magic Dubai Watch Week.
These timepieces, launched in honour of 6th biannual Dubai Watch Week exhibition last week, have been designed in collaboration with award-winning calligraphy artist Wissam Shawkat, paying homage to Arabian culture and heritage, aligning perfectly with Hublot's commitment to innovation and artistic expression.
The special edition timepieces, designed in Hublot’s Classic Fusion collection, feature vibrant Arabic calligraphy design with disruptive colours of bright orange, blue, green, and red - playing with a powerful reflection against the black ceramic bezel.
Designed with the HUB1110 self-winding movement and 42-hour power reserve, both timepieces mark the time. The calligraphy reads “Al Zaman” and “Al Waqt” – both words meaning time in Arabic - to symbolise the passionate fusion between the watch brand, Arabian culture, and calligraphy.
For those seeking a touch of opulence, the Classic Fusion Black Magic Diamonds Dubai Watch Week 38mm elevates the experience with the addition of 36 black brilliant-cut diamonds set on the polished black anodised aluminium bezel.
Shawkat's calligraphy in this timepiece is a true work of art, with the sparkling diamonds accentuating every curve and stroke, showcasing the perfect synergy between horology and artistic expression.
