The Swiss manufacturer has teamed up with the European football governing body to present the second timepiece to bear the colors of the Europa League. The Classic Fusion Chronograph UEFA Europa League Ceramic will be limited to 100 pieces.
“The UEFA Europa League is a real launch pad,” said Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO. “It is always full of excitement and surprises for fans, as the winning team then qualifies for the UEFA Champions League. We are delighted and proud to strengthen our relationship with UEFA through the launch of the Classic Fusion Chronograph UEFA Europa League Ceramic. Becoming an official UEFA partner in 2015 was a great honor and privilege: we predicted then that our partnership would last, and time has proven us right.”

As the seconds counter reaches three o’clock, the silver and orange hands represent the hues of the tournament as well as the coveted Europa League trophy. This is all set against the black background of the 42mm dial and case. Driven by the HUB1153 self-winding chronograph movement, the piece is mounted on an unalterable, lined rubber strap.

Hublot and UEFA initially partnered in 2015 for the prestigious Europa League and Champions League tournaments. In 2019, this partnership was extended to all its international and club competitions for both men’s and women’s football. Since then, in the hands of the 4th referee, the eyes of the spectators follow the announcements of added time and player substitutions on the Hublot 4th official board.
The unconditional commitment to the game of football acknowledges the values of technical mastery, passion, excellence and perseverance that are all shared by Hublot. Ever since its first partnership with the Swiss national team in 2006, it has continued to flourish and expand across all levels of the sport. This commitment forms part of the history that the watchmaker shares with the players, coaches and top clubs, as well as budding new talent, governing bodies and key events in this sport that is adored throughout the world.
