” 2019 has been a truly outstanding year! Marked by the partnership that links us to this icon of speed and style, and the values we share, the last 12 months have been infused with Ferrari's trademark passion. The 90th anniversary of the greatest racing team of all time was celebrated with the launch of the Big Bang Scuderia Ferrari 90th Anniversary, available in three limited editions that traced the evolution of the materials used in motor racing. This was followed by the launch of the Classic Fusion Ferrari GT, a hybrid timepiece that combines an extremely innovative design with Swiss precision mechanics. A result of close collaboration between the Centro Stilé Ferrari, led by Flavio Manzoni, and Hublot. The momentous meeting arranged between Pelé and Mbappé, two legends united by their extraordinary destinies, and their respect for and love of football, remains a historic moment. Together, these events have helped guarantee Hublot's sustained growth.

BOL D'OR MIRABAUD Hublot was the Official Timekeeper of the world's most legendary inland lake race for the 8 th year. This competition is famously difficult, owing to the lake itself and the variety of winds experienced on it, turning its waters from navy blue to steel grey. These two colours featured on the Classic Fusion Chronograph Bol d’Or Mirabaud 2019, in recognition that the Bol d’Or, like Hublot, is an icon of Swissness, an example of innovation, and a symbol of performance and passion.
