Though Parisian label Berluti has dressed men in the most iconic patinated leathers for over a century, since partnering with watchmaker Hublot in 2016 the house has boasted an entirely outfitted wardrobe, from head to toe to wrist. Revisiting their inaugural joint release, the new watch—the Classic Fusion Chronograph Berluti—releases in honor of the French brand’s 120th anniversary, adding a distinctly visual drama to the accessory. Designed by Olga Berluti, a direct descendant of the brand’s founder, the timepiece retains its familiar history with leather tanned to be moisture-free. Available in both all black and scritto king gold, the chronograph touts the customary sapphire crystal construction and anti-reflective treatment, set between embossed indexes of the Hublot logo. Arriving in a bespoke box with a leather care kit to assure the Venezia straps and dial last as long as the Berluti legacy, the piece is as much a technical achievement as it is a timecapsuled marker of history.
