Hublot Classy Watch, Black Dial – Red Gold

The watch case on this outstanding chronograph is principally 18k red gold. The case sides are PVD treated kevlar and black in color. Kevlar, titanium and aluminum are all used in the case, along with the gold. The case has crisp edges, and alternating brushed and polished surfaces. The crown and chrono pushers have natural rubber inserts. Case dimensions are 44.5mm diameter by 16mm thick. Sapphire front and display back crystals. The heads of the screws used to secure the bezel are “H” shaped. The watch is heavy and very well made. Water resistant to 100 meters.

Dial is jet black with applied Arabic numerals and hour markers, luminous and skeletonized hands, red dial highlights and a date display at 4 o’clock. The dial has a 30 minute and 12 hour chronograph totalizer.

Movement is designed by La Joux Perret and manufactured by ETA. Automatic winding with a black skeletonized tungsten rotor. The movement also features 27 jewels and a 42 hour power reserve. In my opinion, this is a manufacture caliber, since Hublot is the only firm that can use this state of the art movement.

Strap is rubber and very supple.
