After setting the tone with its sought-after Essential Grey editions, Hublot now shifts the dial. This time, to taupe. Say hello to Volume IV: the new Classic Fusion Essential Taupe, released in two sizes: 42 mm and 45 mm. These two online-exclusive mark the fourth edition in Hublot’s Essential monochrome series. As with its predecessors, the Essential Taupe is a collector’s milestone.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Hublot may be known for bold moves, disruptive materials and colors you can spot across the room, but it also knows how to speak softly and make a big impact. Witness the Essential Taupe editions: radically refined and crafted for those who lead with timeless confidence. Taupe isn’t just a color, it’s a conviction. A pitch-perfect blend of grey and brown, it’s soft-spoken but strong, grounded yet elevated. It is worn effortlessly, beyond any label. Genderless, seasonless and bold.
Both the 42 mm and 45 mm models feature a polished and satin-finished titanium case and bezel, a sunray taupe dial and an eye-catching strap that fuses rubber and fabric in matching tones. Two signature elements of the Essential collections stand out: a distinctive woven thread unique to the strap and the tone-on-tone aesthetic with its unmistakable monochrome look. Beneath the anti-reflective sapphire crystal ticks a self- winding movement, offering up to 48 hours of power reserve and 5 ATM water resistance. Each timepiece features all the hallmarks of a genuine Classic Fusion: a bezel featuring six functional screws with H-shaped heads, three central hands and a discreet date window.
For those who need a refresh on the Essential color series, it is one of the Manufacture’s most sought-after vintages thanks to its exclusive nature: a single model, a single color, sold through a single channel. The Essential Taupe is the fourth release, preceded by the Big Bang Unico Essential Grey, the Spirit of Big Bang Essential Grey and last year’s Classic Fusion Essential Grey!
