A cool function is the ability to indicate precisely what each Hublot watch is and where it goes to

The newest limited edition watch is called the Hublot King Power Maradona Limited Edition - and is a really handsome piece. While there is distinct "Maradona branding" on the watch, you don't need to be a big fan to enjoy the piece. There are actually two versions. In addition to this black, white, and blue model in ceramic, there is an 18k King gold cased model as well. {http://www.waxreplicawatch.co.uk/replica-hublot-watches-sale-for-uk.html}. I really like the hints of sky blue and the different color chronograph pushers.

Inside the watch is a caliber HUB4245 automatic chronograph movement. It features a skeletonized dial and special central 45 minute chronograph counter - to measure soccer games of course. The rubber strap is special with a white strip down the middle. It looks great on the wrist by the way. Really a nice piece with the colors and fun soccer theme. Now you too can be like the "hand of god". Just make sure to wear one on each wrist. The King Power Diego Maradona watches are limited to 500 pieces in ceramic, and 200 pieces in 18k King gold.

I got to check out this machine hands-on and I must admit that the over-the-top super watch accessory is as appealing as it is priced for people who own more than one yacht. I included the image here of the safe with Markus Dottling and Jean-Claude Biver of Hublot to show you the size scale of the safe. The Hublot safe isn’t just a safe and a watch winder {http://www.waxreplicawatch.co.uk/replica-tag-heuer-watches-sale-for-uk.html} – but also a stereo. This seems to be a bit of a trend, where high-end "watch winder furniture" seems to include a stereo. It also includes an iPad. There is an iPad dock at the top of the safe that is used to control all of the safe’s functions as well as unlock it. Each of the winding modules is programmable, and you can control the stereo and other functions. Using WiFi you can control the safe with the iPad off the dock as well. Everything is done via a custom application pre-loaded on the iPad. A cool function is the ability to indicate precisely what each watch is and where it goes to have it receive the right amount of turns per day. You can also apparently hook up the Hublot Safe to your home security system. Presumably the safe will hide the watches if the alarm is triggered. Or perhaps messing with the safe will trip the alarm. Dottling really thinks all this stuff through.

Ever since Hublot CEO Jean-Claude Biver mentioned the word "Unico" in my post-Baselworld 2009 Interview with him, I and many others have been eagerly anticipating the first opportunity to get a look at Hublot’s new – and first in-house – movement. At the recent inauguration of Hublot’s new manufacture in Nyon, Switzerland (near Geneva), UNICO was revealed. UNICO is actually a term used to represent Hublot’s family of Calibers – what you will see below is the first of two movements slated for release in 2010. The second, Unico 1110, a three-handed movement, is presumably not far behind (hat tip to the fine article by Beth Doerr in iW Magazine’s Oct’09 issue for this additional insight). While I would like to get a watchmaker’s opinion of the technical sophistication and innovativeness of UNICO, there do appear to be at some unique attributes of the movement that can be appreciated by a non-technician such as myself. I will highlight just one today – the escapement..
