Using the symbol of a skull to such grand effect is, in essence, a rebellious thing to do. That’s typical of Best Hublot Classic Fusion Tourbillon Black Skull Replica Watch. So you could argue that the Hublot Classic Fusion Tourbillon Black Skull 505.UC.0140.LR.SKULL is even more ‘Hublot’ than the Big Bang. Which is fitting as the Classic Fusion range was introduced in 2006, one year after the Big Bang quite literally exploded in 2006. The aim was to take the spirit of the Big Bang and build on it with exciting new materials and design features. Mission accomplished.
Looking into the anti-reflective sapphire glass of the dial is like staring into a fathomless molten pool that has a ghostly, ethereal quality. Then there’s the rather fierce looking skull at 6 o’clock. You don’t often see that on a luxury watch. It’s the Hublot Classic Fusion Tourbillon Replica Watch and we’ll come to it in a minute.
It wouldn’t be a stretch to use the nickname ‘Dark Overlord’ for this 50-piece limited edition watch. It has most definitely been seduced by the dark side.
Several shockers make this an intriguing departure from many Hublot offerings. There’s nothing hip-hop or sports star about it. Roman numerals are unusual on a Hublot dial. A dark beauty if ever there was one. The Hublot Classic Fusion Replica Watch 505.UC.0140.LR.SKULL is rather gothic for a luxury watchmaker famous for its futuristic design style and use of innovative materials.
Hublot has plenty of celebrity fans. But not many could get away with such a darkly grand watch as this. Tom Hardy is the really notable exception. The man who played Bane in The Dark Knight Rises, and Max Rockatansky in Mad Max: Fury Road, is one of the few who could carry it off. The watch case is micro blasted ceramised aluminium. And it has a 45 mm case size. Then there’s the porthole-style case shape. The six H-shaped screws on the bezel. And the display caseback. That’s five classic Hublot Replica Watch hallmarks. So although it appears very different from the other children at first glance, it has the same watch DNA.
