Introduction to Hublot Classic Fusion
The Hublot Classic Fusion stands out as a top choice among three-hand sports watches. Its minimalist design paired with a sporty aesthetic captivates many, while retaining the signature "fusion art" of the Hublot Big Bang—a core element in Hublot's history. There's a high demand for top-quality versions of the Hublot Classic Fusion, especially in sizes 38mm, 42mm, and 45mm. However, due to the closure of several manufacturers, availability is limited. Previously, the 38mm Classic Fusion was produced by JJF, but it's no longer in stock. Similarly, the 45mm Titanium version was once made by WWF, but it's currently unavailable. It's advisable to verify stock availability with your supplier when seeking a Classic Fusion model.
Design and Build Quality
Recently, GS factory introduced several Hublot Classic Fusion models made from ceramic—an exciting first for this model, which traditionally used stainless steel or Titanium. These newly launched watches are not only of superior quality but also come at a premium price.
The series comprises four different models, each featuring a black ceramic case. Two models sport a carbon fiber dial, while the other two have a smooth sun-ray dial. With a case diameter of 42mm, they cater to both men and women. The model with a black carbon fiber dial is particularly striking, marking the debut of carbon fiber on the Classic Fusion’s dial, thus innovating within the brand's "fusion art" design philosophy.
Movement and Features
The all-black Classic Fusion model includes a case, bezel, crown, and case back rim crafted from black ceramic. The titanium H-shaped screws are polished, creating a striking contrast against the brushed ceramic case.
This watch is powered by a reliable and precise movement. The base movement plate is beautifully decorated with accurate engravings, based on a clone 2892 automatic movement. The engraving “SW300” on the movement base plate also appears on the genuine watch, indicating a Swiss SW300 movement. Additionally, the factory provides an option to include an actual Swiss SW300 movement for this timepiece.
Overall Impression
Each component of these four Hublot Classic Fusion models impresses, including the genuine alligator leather strap. The attention to detail is impeccable, leaving no room for criticism. I am so impressed that I plan to purchase one for myself; their allure is undeniable.
