KING POWER USAIN BOLT WATCH

KING POWER USAIN BOLT WATCH - HUBLOT

A tribute to the "FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD"

Hublot continues to make strong moves in the sports segment.

They have now collaborated with the fastest man in the world: Usain Bolt.

Usain Bolt, who turns 25 in 2012, recently achieved the mark of 9.82 seconds at the Jamaica National Stadium in Kingston, in preparation for the defense, this summer, the London Olympics, three world titles: 100, 200 and 4x100 meters.

What a damn good last name for a champion runner.

Together they present the KING POWER USAIN BOLT.

This is a standard King Power Chronograph watch.

The watch case is 48mm wide in black ceramic.

What is different are the little touches that make it special for Usain Bolt.

The strap is made from exactly the same leather as the shoes he wore when he broke the world records in Beijing in 2008.

The gold tone is mixed with a dash of green in honor of the Jamaican flag, and is actually a product of using a 2N gold powder coating on the strap and flange ring.

In the subsidiary seconds dial is a silhouette of Usain's signature pose.

Hublot make a limited and numbered edition of 250 pieces.

And now we are going "run" to see this watch for the world's fastest man.
