When a football star of Kylian Mbappé’s caliber showcases a watch on his wrist, you can be sure it’s something that only a select few in the world can afford. The new Hublot watch the Frenchman revealed is not just a luxury accessory – it is a rare collector’s item in a limited edition priced at NIS 62,000, with only two units destined for Israel. So let’s understand what makes this watch so special that watch enthusiasts are willing to spend such a sum.
The new Classic Fusion Chronograph Titanium from Hublot was born from the brand’s ongoing collaboration with the Champions League, one of the most recognized sporting tournaments in the world. It’s not just a timepiece – it’s an expression of the meeting point between engineering precision and global sport, becoming a status symbol for those who want to show they understand quality and exclusivity.
The technology behind the watch is no less impressive than its appearance. The automatic chronograph movement HUB1153 provides a 48-hour power reserve and water resistance up to 50 meters, while the exterior is made of brushed and polished titanium ensuring maximum durability. The blue dial with a gradient effect gives the watch a striking visual presence that’s hard to ignore.
Mbappé, who has served as the brand’s ambassador since 2018, joins a prestigious list of global athletes connected to Hublot. Alongside Novak Djokovic and Patrick Mahomes, the French star represents the brand’s connection to professional sport at the highest level. When someone of his stature chooses to present a product, it says something about the quality and prestige behind it.
The detail that makes this watch especially significant for the Israeli market is the fact that out of the 100 limited units worldwide, only two are coming to the country – with the special numbers 13 and 18. This is no coincidence, but a deliberate choice that takes into account the cultural meaning of these numbers in Jewish tradition as symbols of luck and success.
The price of NIS 62,000 places this watch in the category of true luxury items – a purchase not made on impulse but with the understanding that it is an investment in a rare accessory whose value will only increase over time. For those considering buying, it’s important to know that the watch can be found at the Hublot boutique in TLV Mall or at the Impress Lounge store in Kikar Hamedina, Tel Aviv.
As with any purchase of such a luxury product, the question is not only whether you have the money, but whether you understand exactly what you are buying – a combination of precise engineering, stunning design, and exclusivity that only one hundred people in the world will be able to own.
