Long known for its Big Bang, Classic Fusion and King Power models, Hublot’s unique MP collection was first unveiled at the Geneva Trade Show in January 2011 with the introduction of the “MP-01.” These record-breaking pieces are made possible by a team of 30 developers and engineers devoted entirely to grand complications and extraordinary movements. The collection accurately reflects Hublot’s Chairman, Jean-Claude Biver’s statement: “More watchmaking, more mastery, more innovation…”
The first “Masterpiece,” the MP-01, was limited to 100 pieces and was a barrel-shaped titanium watch with a curved chronograph movement and a 10-day power reserve made possible by three barrels working consecutively. Developed and manufactured entirely by Hublot’s dedicated team, the timepiece is composed of 384 components and 43 jewels.
Since 2011, several more ground-breaking timepieces have come out as part of this collection, including the MP-02 Key of Time, which allows wearers to modulate the passing of time from their watch in three different ways. Baselworld 2013 led to additional “MP” timepieces, including the record-breaking MP-05 LaFerrari and the MP-08 Antikythera Sunmoon.
Completely designed, developed and produced by Hublot manufacture engineers and watchmakers, the MP-05 LaFerrari further distinguishes itself by a 50-day power reserve – a world record for a hand-wound tourbillon wristwatch. Conceptualized alongside the Ferrari team, a complex shaped sapphire crystal echoes the sports car’s outline, as does the case back, which is made from black PVD titanium.
On September 7th, in Los Angeles, the cinema city, an ideal location for its pre-release of the “MP-05 LaFerrari film — A tribute to the FXX K”. Hublot encouraged its clients to enter the center of the Miracle Mile. Hublot introduced its first animated film. As a result of the virtuosity of Digital Domain, its historic album (electricity reserve of 50 days) has now been immortalised on film. The entire FXX K environment was reconstituted with particular computer effects. All the graphics have been animated by a real life driver in the steering wheel, along with the technical characteristics of this automobile are configured to present the most realistic driving experience possible.Hublot is no stranger to producing very large, very serious watches. When it’s something like the LaFerrari or even “just” a titanium minute repeater, the manufacture may flex its muscles when it needs to. The new MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis is the latest case of such a move. It is the very first multi-axis tourbillon from Hublot, also it’s in-house no less.When you initially look at the MP-09, you know you are looking at something complicated, and it is obvious that your focus is supposed to be about this massive spinning thing down at the bottom of the watch. However, what’s not clear is all that’s going on under the surface and just how complex that impressive mechanism actually is.The engine for this system is the HUB9009.H1.RA quality, and the Replica Hublot Mp Watches Replica was designed from the movement up. This caliber is a automatic movement with a five-day power reserve that’s produced in house by Hublot at its manufacture. At the center of this movement is the bi-axial tourbillon, which makes a full rotation on one axis in one minute and a full rotation on another axis every 30 seconds.
The MP-08 Antikythera Sunmoon, developed in tribute to the ancient mechanism discovered in Greek waters in 1901, was presented at Baselworld one year from the launch of the “Tribute to the Antikythera Mechanism” at the Archaeological Museum of Athens. The Antikythera mechanism is one of the most mysterious objects in the history of civilization, and is considered to be the first “astronomical calculator” in the history of humanity.
It dates back to the second century BC. The Hublot Mp-05 Laferrari Ferrari Replica is limited to 20 pieces and features a simplified, miniature version of the original mechanism in honor of the masterpiece of Antiquity and includes both a solar and a lunar calendar, as well as an indication showing the sidereal position of the Sun and the Moon. hublot.com
