The 10 Most Expensive Hublot Watches of All-Time

Classic Fusion Vision II

Hublot is a luxury watch manufacturing company that was founded by Carlo Crocco in 1976. Previously, Carlo Crocco had been part of Italy’s Binda Group dynasty before leaving to try his luck in the watch- making industry. The result was MDM Geneve, with which he released his first watch in 1980. The face, which resembled a porthole, was what inspired the name “Hublot.”

Buyers were drawn to the innovative strap and modern design of the Hublot, making it an almost instant hit. Hublot had set a new standard by incorporating the very first natural rubber straps on a watch in history. Three years later, people recognized the superiority of the strap due to its ability to remain supple and soft even after exposure to the weather elements and extended use. Since then, virtually every watch brand makes use of rubber straps.

Today, Hublot belongs to the French luxury goods corporation LVMH and is one of the most sought after watches in the world. In fact, it is so precious that Formula One CEO (Bernie Ecclestone) was once mugged for his Hublot watch. Some of its most notable endorsers include Diego Maradona, Usain Bolt, the whole Manchester United football team, and the remaining members of the had to come up with a method of authenticating their watches.

It is known as wisekey and started operating in August 2009. Most Hublot watches are typically expensive, but these are the 10 most expensive Hublot watches of all time.

Masterpiece MP-02

The Masterpiece MP-02 is a very unique watch, even by Hublot’s standards. The watch comes with a futuristic style and is designed with titanium and black rubber. The face is reminiscent of a mesh of various dials, but there are three settings on the watch: one for telling the time, the other for speeding the time, and the last one for slowing down time. True, two of these settings are not really practical. The idea is to boast the sophisticated functions a Hublot watch can achieve. The model came out in fifty pieces only, each valued at $305,000.

Recognized as the best watch in the Grand Prix de Geneve of 2009, the Black Caviar Bang is a real marvel. The body is 18 carats white gold, while the face does not have any numbers.

The #1 most expensive Hublot watch is also known as the Hublot, which goes at a breathtaking $5 million. Apart from this, the Hublot is also the world’s most expensive watch.

The entire project took 17 people and 14 months to complete, with superstar Beyonce Knowles grabbing one for her hubby Jay-Z.
