Hublot and Takashi Murakami work in collaboration, marking their fourth series together highlighting watches that are fused with modern art and digital art themes. The capsule is made up of 13 timepieces -- each one comes with a collectible non-fungible token counterpart. Every single digital token is made with inspiration drawn from the Classic Fushion Takashi Murakami All Black Watch that launched in the first collective project back in 2021.
Previously, 324 NFTs were given out to customers along with their watches. Fans that have those tokens are able to purchase 12 upcoming watches with a privately accessed online platform and the 13th is more difficult to acquire as it features the iconic flower on the face and the 12 petals are encrusted with sapphires, tsavorites, amethysts, rubies, and topaz.
