A daring construction movement for unique watch designs
Movements
MP-11
To obtain a two-week power reserve, Hublot has developed an original and spectacular design movement integrating seven barrels paired in series. To enable the transmission of energy between the horizontal axis of the barrels and the vertical wheel driving the hour/minute displays, the Manufacture has used a very rare system in watchmaking: a 90-degree return by means of the helical gear wheel, of the “endless screw” type.
Materials
Carbon
Popular in motor racing, carbon possess unrivalled mechanical qualities. It is ultra-lightweight, resists torsion and stands out with its optimal relationship between weight and resistance. This high-tech material is in the form of a fiber mesh embedded in an epoxy resin. Hublot also uses a 3D carbon where the fibers are woven on three planes. Other models use a “frosted” carbon with colored inclusions.
