Hublot was appointed the official watchmaker by the Formula 1 umbrella organisation in March. This agreement provides access behind the scenes at F1. The prestigious world of motor racing is a source of fascination. It represents both cutting-edge technology, the ultimate in precision, control and top-level sport. For the Hublot brand, which is based on luxury, a tradition of quality, excellence and advanced technological research, the world of the paddocks forms one of its most prestigious partnerships and is a clear culmination of its strategy to be visible to its clients, wherever they may be. The creation of a special watch, in the form of a King Power displaying the "F1" logo, is the fruit of the collaboration between the F1 heads and Hublot's watch creators. Inspired by the world of F1, combining expertise with the highest quality, manufacturing
processes at the cutting edge of research and high-tech materials, this zirconium watch is 48mm in diameter and its bezel has been designed to evoke the disc brakes on a Formula 1 car. Its strap is made up of two layers, featuring rubber on the inside and Nomex, a material similar to that used to make racing drivers' overalls, on the outside. Both sporty and high-tech, the F1 King Power was enthusiastically received by those present when it was unveiled in Shanghai by Hublot's CEO, Jean-Claude Biver.
