New Release
AnthonyTsai introduces the Hublot Mykonos Classic Fusion Chronograph, a limited edition timepiece inspired by the vibrant Greek island. The post details the watch's design elements, which evoke Mykonos's blue and white aesthetic, and highlights its exclusivity to the Gofas store.
Blue. White. Greece. Summer. The Cyclades islands. Mykonos. With the sea glimmering in the sunlight, white houses with their blue shutters and balconies directly overlooking the Mediterranean, pretty little side streets which offer welcome shade, windmills, fine sandy beaches, small, untouched creeks, magical sunsets and pelicans, Mykonos is undoubtedly the most distinctive of the Greek islands.
Hublot Mykonos Classic Fusion Chronograph
It is also the trendiest. With its jet-set atmosphere and feverish nightlife, Mykonos is the most festive Greek island. In July and August, the party starts before the sun goes down. The animated nightlife makes it a favorite beach resort and holiday destination for the European and American jet set.
Hublot has had phenomenal success in Mykonos. With its Greek partner Flamme Hellas and Gofas in Mykonos, it quite naturally came up with the idea of creating a special series inspired by the island.
A 45 mm diameter chic sports watch equipped with a chronograph movement, a titanium case chosen for its lightness, shock-resistance and extreme corrosion-resistance, a dial as blue as the Greek waters with silver counters like the surface of the sea that glimmers in the sun (in the center of the counter at 3 o'clock appears a discreet elegant windmill which is the common sight for the Cyclades and Mykonos in particular), and a matching tone blue alligator strap sewn onto rubber for better resistance and flexibility, this limited edition creates a union between land and sea. It represents the fusion of the elements. This watch is part of a limited edition of 25 and is exclusively available from the Gofas store – Matogianni 43 – 846-00 Mykonos.

Press Release
I like the Classic Fusion Chronograph, I appreciate its overal balance: But if they do the same with it than with the Big Bang, I think it would be a mistake. This watch has to remain simple and pure. The right subdial of the Mykonos LE is terrible. It is just my point of view of course... Fx
