After the success of its iconic Essential Grey editions, Swiss luxury watchmaker Hublot introduces a fresh tone to its coveted monochrome palette: taupe. Say hello to Volume IV of the Essential Series — the Classic Fusion Essential Taupe, available in two sizes (42 mm and 45 mm) and sold exclusively online at hublot.com. This latest drop continues Hublot’s tradition of delivering refined monochrome elegance in limited and collectable editions.
Known for its bold designs and use of high-impact materials, Hublot takes a softer, more understated approach with the Essential Taupe. But don’t mistake subtlety for simplicity. Taupe, a sophisticated blend of grey and brown, exudes strength through stillness. It’s genderless, seasonless, and speaks to those who favour timeless design over fleeting trends — a hue that doesn’t shout, yet commands presence.
Both the 42 mm and 45 mm models feature a sleek, polished and satin-finished titanium case and bezel, paired with a sunray taupe dial that catches light with every tilt. The watches are fitted with a distinct rubber-and-fabric strap, woven with a signature taupe thread that adds texture and character. This is monochrome minimalism at its most luxurious — a perfect harmony of form, function, and restraint.
Inside, the Classic Fusion Essential Taupe runs on a self-winding mechanical movement, offering a 48-hour power reserve and 5 ATM water resistance. Protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the dial is clean and classic, featuring three central hands, a discreet date window, and Hublot’s signature six H-shaped screws on the bezel — unmistakably Classic Fusion.
Part of Hublot’s Essential Series, this release maintains the line’s defining concept: one model, one colour, one channel. It follows in the footsteps of the Big Bang Unico Essential Grey, Spirit of Big Bang Essential Grey, and the Classic Fusion Essential Grey editions, all of which quickly became favourites among collectors for their exclusivity and striking simplicity.
Hublot’s Classic Fusion Essential Taupe is available in two sizes (42 mm and 45 mm) at CHF 7.700.00.
The Classic Fusion Essential Taupe is a masterclass in quiet confidence, an elegant evolution of Hublot’s Essential legacy. Available now at hublot.com.
