Hublot Presents The Incredible MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System
The new Hublot MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System is perhaps the most surprising novelty brought by the watch brand to the LVMH week, embracing a vertical and bold design.
It is the brand’s CEO who states that total freedom was given to the brand’s creatives and designers to build this true work of ‘engineering’, translated into a watch in which, in addition to the movement, its reading is also done vertically.
The watch, which comes in a robust rectangular case with rounded corners almost reminiscent of a bottle canteen, is made of microblasted titanium with dimensions of 41.50mm by 54.10mm and a thickness of 22.40mm, curved sapphire glass that also extends over the profile, fluted large crown at the top that is intended to wind its manual movement and another smaller one that is hidden in the rear sapphire crystal and that is used to set the time, and finally, 30m of water resistance.
But it is on the dial that the whole show takes place, where the hours and minutes are supplied through two central rotating cylinders, the seconds on a ring housed in the tourbillon cage at the bottom, and also, a power reserve indicator that is positioned between the hours /minutes and seconds whose green and red markers leave no room for doubt. Lastly, it is difficult to miss the two white gold weights mounted on a rail on each side of the case, one of them painted in white with the brand’s lettering and the other with ‘MP-10’.
At its heart lives the In-house Caliber HUB9013 with 592 components that took five years to develop and offers up to 2 days of power reserve.
The watch comes attached to a black textured rubber strap with a titanium folding clasp with the brand’s signature.
This limited edition of just 50 pieces hits the market with a price of €275,000.
Our Opinion
If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll already know that I’m an avowed fan of the classic, however I can’t help but admire the effort, dedication and history behind each of these timepieces. And this has already caught my attention, so it will certainly be one of the pieces that I intend to delve into in detail in this year’s edition of Watches And Wonders.
