Frequently Asked Questions

What makes titanium special as a watchmaking material?

Titanium represents one of the most advanced materials in modern watchmaking, offering exceptional benefits that Hublot has expertly harnessed in the Classic Fusion. Grade 5 titanium (the highest quality available) provides an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, making this 42mm watch significantly lighter than equivalent stainless steel models while maintaining superior durability.

Additionally, titanium is hypoallergenic and highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for everyday wear regardless of conditions. The material develops a distinctive patina over time and maintains a slightly bluish metallic sheen when polished, adding character to the watch. Hublot’s expertise in working with titanium allows for the complex satin and polished finishing techniques that give this Classic Fusion its sophisticated appearance.

How does the “Art of Fusion” philosophy influence this watch?

Hublot’s “Art of Fusion” represents the core philosophy behind every timepiece the brand creates, and this Classic Fusion embodies it perfectly. The concept goes beyond merely combining different materials, it represents a holistic approach to watchmaking that blends traditional craftsmanship with innovative techniques, classic design elements with contemporary aesthetics, and technical engineering with artistic expression.

In this Titanium Green model, we see the fusion concept expressed through the combination of high-tech titanium with the natural-inspired green dial colour, the integration of a rubber strap with a luxury timepiece, and the balance between sporty elements and elegant execution. This harmonious blending of seemingly contrasting elements creates a watch that transcends conventional categories and showcases Hublot’s unique position in the watchmaking landscape.

What is special about the green sunray dial?

The satin-finished green sunray dial represents one of the most distinctive features of this Classic Fusion model. The sunray pattern consists of minute brushed lines radiating outward from the centre, creating a dynamic surface that captures and plays with light in constantly changing ways. As the watch moves, the dial shifts between deep forest green tones and brighter emerald highlights, giving the timepiece exceptional visual character.

This particular shade of green strikes a perfect balance, bold enough to be distinctive yet sophisticated enough for versatile wear. The colour also complements the titanium case beautifully, with the cool metallic tones playing against the rich warmth of the green. Applied indices and hands with luminescent coating ensure excellent legibility while adding dimensional depth to the dial.

How versatile is the Classic Fusion for different occasions?

The Classic Fusion represents one of Hublot’s most versatile designs, expertly balancing sporty elements with refined elegance. At 42mm, this model offers ideal proportions that work well across a wide range of wrist sizes and situations. The titanium construction provides a lightweight comfort that makes the watch suitable for all-day wear, while the integrated rubber strap offers security during active situations while remaining comfortable in professional environments.

The green dial adds distinctive character without overwhelming the design, allowing this timepiece to transition seamlessly from business settings to casual weekends. While more formal than Hublot’s Big Bang models, the Classic Fusion maintains enough sporty DNA to avoid feeling out of place in active scenarios, making it truly a watch for all occasions.

What movement powers the Hublot Classic Fusion?

The HUB1110 self-winding movement represents Hublot’s commitment to reliable mechanical timekeeping. Based on the proven Sellita SW300 architecture, this automatic calibre has been modified and refined by Hublot to meet their exacting standards. It features 25 jewels and operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz), providing smooth seconds hand movement and excellent precision.

The 42-hour power reserve allows the watch to remain running accurately even when unworn overnight and through part of a weekend. The movement incorporates modern technical features including an anti-shock system and quick-set date function, while decorative elements visible through the exhibition caseback include perlage on the mainplate and côtes de Genève striping on the rotor, demonstrating Hublot’s attention to both technical performance and aesthetic finishing.

How does this Hublot Classic Fusion compare to other Hublot collections?

Within Hublot’s diverse portfolio, the Classic Fusion line occupies a distinctive position as a more refined interpretation of the brand’s design language. While the Big Bang collection showcases bold proportions and complex constructions, the Classic Fusion offers a more understated approach without sacrificing brand identity. Compared to the Big Bang’s typical 44-45mm cases, the Classic Fusion’s 42mm diameter provides more versatile wearability.

The case architecture maintains Hublot’s signature design elements, including the H-shaped screws and integrated strap, while presenting them in a sleeker profile that’s 2-3mm thinner than equivalent Big Bang models. The green titanium execution showcased in this particular reference represents a perfect middle ground in the collection, balancing the understated elegance of the Classic Fusion design with a distinctive colour that maintains Hublot’s reputation for contemporary flair.
