The best watches are more than just a reliable keeper of time or a standout style move — they call to mind a sense of awe, wonder and perhaps even stunning scenery. Stunning scenery? That’s the idea behind Hublot’s latest capsule collection, celebrating three iconic destinations across the Mediterranean, with each watch available at its respective boutique.
The visually striking timepieces can be found at Hublot boutiques in Ibiza, St. Tropez and Capri — for a very cool starting price of $18,500 — and call to mind the beautiful waters of each covetable getaway.
Hublot’s most impressive models are updated and on full display in the capsule, including the Hublot Big Bang, done up in rich turquoise blue to celebrate the beaches of Tahiti and Pampellone.
The Big Bang Unico St-Tropez Boutique is the most rare of the trio, with just 30 models available.
Both the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Blue Ibiza Boutique and Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Capri Boutique boast a still-exclusive, ultra-rare run of 50 handsome, functional, dressy-yet-utilitarian units.
In fact, you can only find the crisp, cool-as-can-be Ibiza edition available at the brand’s summer-only pop-up Port Esportiu Marina boutique, a getaway-worthy locale in its own right — made even better by the opportunity to find one of more rare Hublot watches on the market.
To up the ante even further, Hublot debuted its Ibiza model with an exclusive launch party featuring all the trappings of luxurious summer style.
Consider it a fitting introduction, and a fitting backdrop, for a watch unlike any on the market.
Hublot watches are impressive and investment-worthy in their own right, so if you’re lucky enough to make the trek to the memorable waters of the Mediterranean, you might be able to score the coolest watch in your collection.
