Famous for its bold combinations, the Swiss watch manufacturer is not stopping. It recently launched a unique timepiece specially dedicated to the upcoming CHinese New Year. With a golden snake on the dial, it definitely stands out among luxury timepieces. But does it have something else to offer besides its bold appearance? What sets the Hubolt Year of the Snake watch apart
Chinese New Year – why is Hubolt celebrating it?
Hublot celebrates Chinese New Year because it understands the value of tradition, symbolism and art, which are deeply rooted in Chinese culture. It’s also an opportunity to combine precision watchmaking with fascinating stories from the Chinese zodiac, like this year, when the snake symbolizes wisdom and transformation. Through limited-edition watches, Hublot is not only paying homage to Chinese customs, but also gaining recognition in one of the world’s most important luxury markets by creating works of art that combine culture, innovation and prestige. Given the growing and dynamic interest in luxury goods from Asian markets, such a model is an excellent marketing move.
What does the Hubolt Year of the Snake watch look like?
Hublot Year of the Snake it’s watch, which attracts glances from the first moment. Its black ceramic envelope with a matte and polished finish contrasts perfectly with the golden snake winding around the transparent sapphire glass dial. The snake, engraved with extreme precision, wraps around the chronograph subdials.
This gives the whole thing a three-dimensional effect. Gold hands and indexes harmoniously complete the design, and the snake skin texture is repeated on the rubber strap. This is a watch that not only measures time, but tells a story full of elegance, symbolism and watchmaking craftsmanship.
