black timepiece with gold details
Hublot and cigar brand Arturo Fuente y Compañia have once again joined forces to present a tribute to Carlos A. Fuente Sr., a giant in the tobacco industry and the patriarch of the Fuente family.
black timepiece with gold details The Big Bang Arturo Fuente Ceramic watch pays tribute to the remarkable saga of Carlos A. Fuente Sr., with details specifically designed to honor him. The team at Hublot has infused the iconic Big Bang with details and flourishes that instantly call to mind the unique blends and cigars that are undeniably Fuente. This starts with the watch's 44mm diameter case, which is black ceramic and features a tobacco leaf pattern across its curves and angles. The Roman numerals favored by the Fuente family, which appear on the brand's famous Opus X cigars, also appear on the dial, thus adding a remarkable note of authenticity to the timepiece. The specific numerals that Hublot chose for this collaboration are taken from the clock that appears on the Fuente family crest.
