Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph Arturo Fuente ForbiddenX

The Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph ForbiddenX brings together Hublot’s contemporary watchmaking style and the distinctive character of Arturo Fuente. The defining feature is its tobacco-leaf dial, created from genuine tobacco leaf and giving the watch a naturally textured brown appearance.

The combination of the earthy dial, dark case, brown ceramic bezel, and leather strap creates a sophisticated design unlike a conventional chronograph.

Arturo Fuente ForbiddenX Collaboration

The Hublot ForbiddenX Watch was created as a collaboration with Arturo Fuente, one of the best-known names in premium cigars. Instead of simply using cigar-inspired graphics, the ForbiddenX design incorporates genuine tobacco leaf into the dial.

This unusual material gives each dial its own natural visual character and makes the watch particularly interesting to collectors who appreciate unconventional watchmaking materials.

Genuine Tobacco Leaf Dial

The tobacco-leaf dial is the signature element of the Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph ForbiddenX. Its rich brown tones provide a warm contrast against the darker case and bezel.

The dial incorporates chronograph counters, applied markers, a date display at 6 o’clock, and ForbiddenX branding, creating a balance between functionality and distinctive material design.

Titanium Case and Brown Ceramic Bezel

The documented 45mm ForbiddenX reference 521.NC.0589.VR.OPX14 combines a titanium case with a brown ceramic bezel secured by six H-shaped screws. Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment protects the dial.

The dark titanium and brown ceramic combination complements the tobacco-leaf dial while giving the Hublot Arturo Fuente Watch a strong Classic Fusion appearance.

Automatic Chronograph Movement

The Hublot ForbiddenX Chronograph is powered by the Hublot HUB1143 self-winding mechanical chronograph movement. Published reference information lists approximately 42 hours of power reserve, along with chronograph and date functions.

This automatic movement adds practical functionality while keeping the tobacco-leaf dial as the main visual attraction.

Brown Leather and Rubber Strap

The warm brown strap complements the natural color of the tobacco-leaf dial. Published specifications for the 521.NC.0589.VR.OPX14 describe a tobacco-colored leather/calfskin strap combined with rubber and a deployant clasp.

The result is a cohesive brown-and-black color palette with a refined luxury character.

Limited Edition Character

The ForbiddenX Limited Edition was produced in limited quantities. The 521.NC.0589.VR.OPX14 titanium reference is documented as a 250-piece edition, making it considerably more exclusive than a standard Classic Fusion Chronograph.

This limited-production status, combined with the unusual tobacco-leaf dial, gives the watch strong collector appeal.
