Hublot’s piece uniqué MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Only Watch blossoms with symbolism and creativity, expertly marrying Haute Horlogerie and Haute Joaillerie. This luxury timepiece is inspired by renowned Japanese artist, Takashi Murakami’s, iconic smiling flower, a central motif of his work. As a friend of Hublot since 2020, Murakami’s artistic creations with the brand have always been in limited-edition series. Yet, the MP-15 Tourbillon surpasses its predecessors with its truly one-of-a-kind nature and the exclusive inclusion of Hublot’s first-ever central tourbillon. Adding to its allure, 12 gemstone-set petals surround the watch, giving it a bright and joyful aesthetic with over 444 precisely-set gemstones.
The central tourbillon echoes Hublot’s dedication to high-end watchmaking and Murakami’s world of artistic creativity, symbolizing the heart of the wearer and representing a beacon of hope for those battling Duchenne’s disease. Crafted under Murakami’s specific vision, the intricate design features a co-axial construction, centered around a flying tourbillon, and luminescent indices reflecting the vivid colors of the 2023 edition of Hublot for Only Watch. It also boasts a whopping 150-hour power reserve and a case back made entirely from sapphire. The one-of-a-kind Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Only Watch will be auctioned off for charity at the Only Watch event on November 5th.
