MECA-10 King Gold 42MM

REGAL 18K KING GOLD CASE AND THE SEAMLESS TRIUMPH OF MULTI-LAYERED DESIGN

This exceptional timepiece projects absolute dominance through its signature 42mm multi-layered sandwich case, beautifully sculpted from Hublot’s exclusive 18K King Gold alloy – a precious metal engineered with high levels of platinum to deliver a significantly warmer and richer shade than traditional 5N gold. The magnificent interplay of satin-brushed surfaces and highly polished facets accentuates its regal, luxurious stature. The robust metal shell is seamlessly crowned by a matching gold bezel, fastened securely by 6 iconic H-shaped titanium screws and accented with black composite resin. Engineered with a robust 100m water resistance and completed by an integrated black structured lined rubber strap, this horological creation delivers a powerful statement of authority and opulent refinement on the wrist.

SKELETONIZED MATTE BLACK DIAL: A MICROSCOPIC STAGE FOR ARCHITECTURAL AUTONOMY

The mechanical soul of this masterpiece is fully laid bare through its captivating matte black skeletonized dial. Void of a conventional watch face, the open-worked architecture functions as a miniature stage that aestheticizes what is normally hidden, revealing an intricate engineering system constructed layer by layer, brick by brick. The oversized hands and applied rose gold indices feature luminescent inserts for crystal-clear legibility under any lighting condition, viewed with pristine depth through the anti-reflective sapphire glass. The visual drama is elevated by an intuitive, asymmetric power reserve display driven by a rare rack-and-pinion “crémaillère” system at 12 o’clock, working alongside a circular digital day-autonomy counter with a red alert zone to create an enthralling mechanical choreography.

MANUFACTURE CALIBRE HUB1205: MECHANICAL DOMINANCE WITH A 10-DAY AUTONOMY

Ensuring absolute reliability and precision is the manual-winding manufacture Calibre HUB1205 movement, a masterclass in micromechanical engineering entirely designed, developed, and manufactured in-house by Hublot. The challenge for the brand’s master watchmakers was to preserve the complete structural integrity of the original MECA-10 ring-shaped baseplate while reducing its dimensions to fit the smaller 42mm case without compromising performance. To complement the opulent gold case, the open bridges are beautifully finished with customized tones. Driven with absolute stability by two mainspring barrels, this mechanical powerhouse operates at a 3Hz frequency (21,600 vph) and comprises 264 components and 29 jewels to deliver an outstanding 240 hours of autonomy, fully reviewable through the exhibition sapphire caseback.
