Hublot has joined forces with Radamel Falcao García, aka El Tigre, a famous Colombian football striker and the brand’s local Ambassador.
Together they held a special event organized in support for UNODC - United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime – to provide a financial aid for this important institution that analyses, monitors and prevents global drugs and transnational organized crime threats. For this occasion, Hublot has created a special Classic Fusion Falcao limited edition wristwatch, which is available in only 100 pieces (60 in titanium and 40 in gold). All of the proceeds from the sale of this piece will be directed to UNODC to aid its project to provide the wetland community with a sports center and a fish storage center, allowing the local kids to enjoy a new playground.
Falcao and Hublot held the event in the Bogota Hotel Hilton, which was welcomed by many important personalities such as the Ambassador of the United States, Michael McKinley, and his wife, Fátima McKinley, the renowned designer Hernán Zajar, the vallenato singer Peter Manjarres, the Head of "Hola" magazine Clemencia Gregory, the RCN television presenter Andrea Guerrero, and the Director of the Agency of International Cooperation Sandra Bessudo, among others.
The movement
Hublot Classic Fusion Falcao replica watch is a gorgeous openworked chronograph that measures 45mm in diameter. The watch is powered by HUB 1155 self-winding skeleton chronograph movement and fitted with a sapphire dial with polished appliques and Falcao signature transferred on glass. The number 9 on the fully visible date disc is highlighted in red, which is a nod to Falacao’s number on the Association Sportive de Monaco Football Club Dress. The blackened movement is livened up with red and white details, evoking the signature colors of the AS Monaco FC.The case
The back of the case is fitted with a sapphire crystal and it showcases amazing openworked rotor with Tiger motif, serial number and individual number of each watch. Hublot’s official press release mentions 60 exemplars in titanium, but judging by the photos they provided, there are actually 75 titanium watches – take a look at the individual number of the series: 01/75. Depending on the version, Hublot Classic Fusion Falcao is delivered on either black or brown alligator leather strap.
