Hublot Sculpts Vibrantly Colored Ceramic in New Orlinski Collab

Published: March 1, 2024 | By: American Luxury Staff

Sleek and sculptural, two vibrant new additions join Hublot’s collaborative cadre with renowned French artist Richard Orlinski—the Classic Fusion Tourbillon Orlinski in zesty Yellow Magic and breezy Sky Blue.

At the essence, Orlinski’s signature geometry—faceted cases with sharply defined edges that play with light and shadow. Smoothed ceramic blooms in vivid hues, the 45mm cases with diamond-cut angles and 12-sided bezels odes to the artist’s iconic style.

A kinship born in 2017, Orlinski muses carte blanche from Hublot has propelled his creativity to bold new terrain, embodied in these angular animals. Twenty years conceptualized, today they proudly leap forth.

Artistry continues within, the openworked dials granting glimpses of refined mechanics. Color carries through from case to hands, indices and power reserve indicator. In Yellow Magic, touches of black for contrast – crowned winding crown, bezel screws, skeleton bridges. While Sky Blue frolics with silvery accents for airy elegance.

At their core, the same sophisticated prowess—Hublot’s HUB6021 handwound tourbillon calibre, flaunting its skeletonized bridges. A hypnotic oscillation at the 6 o’clock aperture, providing a mesmerizing peek into the 184-component mechanics.

With vibrant rubber straps matching their ceramic skins, the Classic Fusion Tourbillons are limited to 30 pieces per colorway and priced at $95,000.
