The latest Hublot Classic Fusion Watch is a unique timepiece with a very wild aesthetic. Created for the 2015 Only Watch Charity auction, this watch displays work by Romero Britto.
Definitely the most colorful watch in the Classic Fusion Watch collection, this piece was created in partnership with Brazilian artist Romero Britto. Britto is well-known for his vibrant use of colors and combination of cubism, pop art and graffiti elements. Portraying to his bold aesthetic, this watch features an eccentric face displaying a piece of Britto's art. The white gold dial perfectly accents Britto's heavily patterned masterpiece while the exterior features a black case and radiant red leather straps.
The Swiss watchmakers will be auctioning this watch on November 7th, 2015 alongside the canvas that inspired it. All money raised will go towards Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy research.
