Hublot Takes to the Slopes with Legendary Luxury Resort Cheval Blanc Courchevel!
Hublot, Cheval Blanc Courchevel (CBC) and ESF
Courchevel took over the slopes of the legendary ski resort of Courchevel 1850
during the famous Hublot Slalom.
Sitting at the heights of Courchevel 1850, offering a breath-taking view over the valley, the Slalom Stadium of Courchevel 1850 was fully decorated with Hublot and Cheval Blanc Courchevel flags to welcome a hundred privileged participants in a warm and family atmosphere. Each participant was escorted by an instructor from ESF Courchevel ski school. Making a duet, skiers and instructors fine-tuned their skiing and had to show a whole lot of consistency and precision. To win this race, they had to register the two closest transit times possible. Outdoing yourself and fostering a team spirit are two intrinsic Hublot values and were the keywords of this race which ended in a blaze of glory for the winners. During the prize-giving ceremony, filled with emotion and pride, the winners were awarded a wondrous Hublot watch. All participants concluded this moment of sport and friendship and shared in a tasty aperitif made by Cheval Blanc Courchevel and enjoyed in spectacular natural scenery.
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, declared: “The partnership between Cheval Blanc and Hublot is the one of synergies and of the quest for renewed performance. Today, here in Courchevel, I am proud and happy to celebrate our collaboration with this Maison of Excellence.”
Olivier Lefebvre, Head of Hotel Activities for LVMH and President of Cheval Blanc Courchevel, added : « Hublot is a key partner for Cheval Blanc because we are driven by the same values of excellence and creativity. Once a guest crosses the threshold of a Maison Cheval Blanc, our mission is to change his perception of time: the time for himself, the time of a slalom, the time of a diving in Maldives, the time of a regatta in St Barthélemy. Hublot timepieces are perfect for all these leisures which are at the heart of our Maisons, and we fully embody together this art of living: being able to take all the time we need.
The guests of this truly magical night could admire the elegant curves of Ferrari Amalgam supercar mock-ups and the beauty of an engine showcased at “The Bar”. A few enthusiasts looking for extreme sensations will have the privilege to test this engine all week long on the roads of Courchevel 1850 with a pilot instructor.
In this famous ski resort, Hublot reopened its rue du Rocher Boutique on Dec 15, 2016. Redesigned like a mountain chalet, it features wooden walls, a framework of exposed beams, warm lightning and mountain-style sofas. This new concept of Chalet-Boutique already successfully implemented in Zermatt combines tradition and innovation in accordance with Hublot DNA.
