Hublot and Takashi Murakami Present 13 NFTs & 13 Special Watches

Hublot and Takashi Murakami Introduce 13 NFTs & 13 Special Watches

At an exclusive event held at New York's Glass House, Hublot and Takashi Murakami debuted thirteen new NFTs and thirteen unique watches.

These one-of-a-kind NFTs are inspired by 1970s Japanese video games and television, as well as the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black, which debuted in January 2021 as the first cooperation between the Swiss watchmaker and Takashi Murakami.

NFTs are tied to a limited edition of thirteen brand-new, one-of-a-kind Classic Fusion timepieces that will be on display at Watches & Wonders 2023 in Geneva. As part of the third cooperation between Hublot and Takashi Murakami, twelve of these timepieces will be offered for purchase exclusively online, which will only be accessible to owners of at least one of the 324 NFTs when the lawsuit is filed in April of 2022.

These 324 NFTs were provided to owners of one of the two Hublot x Takashi Murakami watch models (Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black & Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami Sapphire Rainbow) prior to their exchangeability on the decentralised NFT trading platform OpenSea. Each fortunate purchaser of one of the twelve new, special watches will get a matching NFT.

 

The Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami Black Ceramic Rainbow was introduced in New York as the thirteenth timepiece in the Hublot with Takashi Murakami line. This clock reinterprets Takashi Murakami's distinctive symbol, the smiling flower. Here, the flower's twelve petals make a perfect gradient of rubies, sapphires, amethysts, tsavorites, and topaz. Thanks to the ball-bearing mechanism designed by Hublot's experts, the petals rotate on an axis with each movement, creating a colourful display.

Create a three-dimensional impression by placing the flower's centre on top of the sapphire glass.

The twelve additional allusions remember the primary flower and each symbolise a petal. Twelve references correspond to the twelve hours on the clock, and there are twelve NFTs.

Over the course of one year, collectors will be able to exchange the twelve non-fungible tokens on the OpenSea platform. At the conclusion of this period in April 2024, only the collector who has amassed all twelve of the new unique NFTs will be entitled to acquire the thirteenth and most coveted timepiece: the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami Black Ceramic Rainbow. If no one has collected all twelve NFTs, Hublot will sell off the watch to raise money for charity.
