This summer, enjoy your favourite beaches from Ibiza to Capri via St-Tropez – but don't forget the perfect accessory for all of your adventures – the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Blue Ibiza Boutique, Big Bang Unico St-Tropez Boutique, or Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Capri Boutique. Blue is a timelessly chic, and endlessly versatile colour; a classic, a staple, a true essential. Three limited editions, made from HUBLOT ceramic, inspired by three legendary party destinations where HUBLOT sails in for the summer with its pop-up boutiques. Ready to dive into the deep blue waters of Ibiza, chill under the blue skies of Pampelonne beach, or be mesmerised by the turquoise illuminated waters of the Grotta Azzurra?

St-Tropez, Ibiza or Capri? Why choose!
If you love blue skies and turquoise seas, then you love the Mediterranean. If you love escape and relaxation, then you'll definitely love HUBLOT.

In a duo of deep blue and white, soft blue, or turquoise and black, your days and nights of sea and sky come together. Visit Port Esportiu at Marina Ibiza, 34 Rue François Sibilli – just a short hop from the port of St-Tropez – and Via Vittorio Emanuele 46 on Capri to discover the three HUBLOT summer limited editions and dive into the blues of summertime. In the mountains, the HUBLOT boutiques are modelled on Alpine refuges; by the sea, they are flooded with the blues of the Mediterranean and set with wood panelling like steps back onto terra firma, evoking the ropes and pontoons of the seafaring world. An invitation to rest your feet on dry land, whilst fully admiring the sea.

HUBLOT ❤ St-Tropez

Big Bang Unico St-Tropez Boutique

The turquoise blue seas and sky of this seaside citadel are reflected in a limited edition of 30 pieces which echo the colours of Tahiti and Pampelonne beach.

Set between the Place des Lices and the Port de St-Tropez since 2017, the HUBLOT boutique is just a short hop from the iconic ochre and sienna bell tower which overlooks the port and dominates the skyline. A silhouette which is even featured on the sapphire of the Big Bang Unico St-Tropez Boutique's case back.

You can let your days turn into nights to the beat of the UNICO V2 manufacture movement at Verde Beach for a full, uninterrupted 72 hours. The calibre HUB1280 boasts a slimmer design, restyled architecture, easier assembly and improved visibility and functionality. The ceramic bezel, the lined rubber strap, the indices, numerals and hands are all turquoise blue, contrasting with the microblasted black ceramic case.

 

HUBLOT ❤ Ibiza

Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Blue Ibiza Boutique

With its pop-up boutique open throughout the summer, HUBLOT celebrates the bohemian festive spirit of Ibiza with a limited edition of 50 pieces in colours which echo the island's white walls and the deep blue of the horizon from Cala Conta, the contrasting shades underneath the boats moored at Cala Saladeta and the seabed at Cala Xarraca. The HUBLOT boutique has been throwing down its anchor at the White Island's Port Esportiu Marina since 2019.

To celebrate summer, and its Ibiza boutique, HUBLOT welcomes its favourite material– coloured ceramic – to a magnetic blue chronograph: the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Blue Ibiza Boutique. 45 mm in diameter, with a deep blue ceramic bezel and case, HUB1155 self-winding chronograph movement and a power reserve of 42 hours, this piece is awash with the island's vibrant blues, from its deep seas to its night skies. Its blue alligator strap is set off by white stitching and a white stripe, providing as striking a contrast to the titanium adorning the crown, pushers and H-shaped screws.

On the back of the watch, the sapphire crystal features "H ❤ Ibiza".

 

HUBLOT ❤ Capri

Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Capri Boutique

The magic of the turquoise waters of Capri's Grotta Azzurra and the contrast with the dark grey of the grotto have inspired a limited edition of 50 pieces which evoke the fascination with this unique sea cave. Looking out onto the waters of the bay of Capri and its iconic Faraglioni, HUBLOT set up its boutique at the heart of the island's most prestigious street in 2016.

Whether admiring the architecture and views from Villa Malaparte, enjoying the beach and cocktails at La Fontelina, or savouring the sunset and dinner at Il Riccio, the black and turquoise ceramic of the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Ceramic Capri Boutique will accompany you day and night for an uninterrupted 42 hours. 45 mm in diameter, with a turquoise blue lined rubber strap, and water resistant to 50 metres, this piece invites you to dive into the Capri summertime.

HUBLOT ceramic

Ceramic is HUBLOT's signature; smooth and sleek to the touch, this innovative material has been perfected and patented by the manufacture. With its enhanced hardness and scratch resistance, HUBLOT ceramic boasts intense colours and is light and comfortable to wear thanks to the low heat conductivity of the ceramic and its hypoallergenic properties.

 

HUBLOT

Founded in Switzerland in 1980, HUBLOT is defined by its innovation, which began with the highly original combination of gold and rubber. This "Art of Fusion" stems from the imagination of its visionary Chairman, Jean-Claude Biver, and has been driven forward by CEO Ricardo Guadalupe since 2012.

The release of the iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 paved the way for new flagship collections (Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang), with complications ranging from the simple to the highly sophisticated, establishing the extraordinary DNA of the Swiss watchmaking house and ensuring its impressive growth.

A resolutely sporty style

Keen to preserve its traditional and cutting-edge expertise, and guided by its philosophy to "Be First, Different and Unique", the Swiss watchmaker is consistently ahead of the curve, through its innovations in materials (scratch-resistant Magic Gold, ceramics in vibrant colours, sapphire), and the creation of Manufacture movements (Unico, Meca-10, Tourbillon).

HUBLOT is fully committed to creating a Haute Horlogerie brand with a visionary future: a future which is fused with the key events of our times (FIFA World CupTM, UEFA Champions League, UEFA EUROTM) and the finest ambassadors our era has to offer (Chiara Ferragni, Pelé, Kylian Mbappé, Usain Bolt, Novak Djokovic).

Discover the HUBLOT universe at our network of boutiques located in key cities across the globe: Geneva, Paris, London, New York, Hong Kong, Dubai, Tokyo, Singapore, Zurich and at hublot.com
