Hublot's longtime affair with football
In 2006, Hublot became the official timekeeper for the FIFA World Cup and Women’s World Cup, plus all the major UEFA competitions including the Champions League, Europa League, and Premier League. 

In addition, they also sponsored some of the world’s most prestigious clubs like Juventus, Chelsea, Ajaz, Benfica, and Boca Juniors. 

Hublot was founded in Switzerland in 1980 and defined by its innovation, which began when they broke all the rules in that time by putting a gold watch on a black rubber strap. This “Art of Fusion” came from the imagination of its visionary chairman, Jean-Claude Biver, and now has been passed to their current CEO, Ricardo Guadalupe since 2012. 

The Hublot watches range from their iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 to their much newer collections like Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang with designs ranging from simple to highly sophisticated. 

“Be First, Different and Unique” is their key philosophy that makes the Swiss watchmaker consistently ahead of their competitors through innovations. The prime example is their scratch-resistant 18K gold alloy watch made with ceramics from different colors. 

Hublot aims to create a visionary future fused with key events like FIFA World Cup, UEFA EURO, and Champions League with the finest ambassadors including Chiara Ferragni, Kylian Mbappe, Usain Bolt, and Novak Djokovic.
