The Classic Fusion is the modern reinterpretation of the first Hublot watch from 1980, the one that first combined gold and rubber and gave the brand its name. Since 2022, Hublot has released a monochrome edition every year under the name "Essential Grey": first the Big Bang Unico (2022), then the Spirit of Big Bang (2023), and in 2024 it was the Classic Fusion's turn, offered in two sizes, 42mm and 45mm, sold exclusively through Hublot's online store.
The 42mm titanium case measures 10.4mm thick and 50.4mm lug-to-lug, with a mixed-finish construction: a brushed bezel with polished screws and sides, polished lugs and case band, and the piece holding the integrated strap finished in brushed titanium with polished screws. That contrast of textures is a recurring Hublot signature on its monochrome editions.
Under the gray sunburst dial, with faceted applied indices and matching sword hands, sits Caliber HUB1110, a Hublot automatic movement based on the Sellita SW300-1a, with 25 jewels and a 42-hour power reserve. The rotor is customized with the brand's name, and finishing is carried out at Hublot's own facilities.
The gray hybrid strap, combining a rubber base with a woven textile layer, is one of the most talked-about elements of this edition: at first glance it resembles a titanium mesh bracelet, though it's actually a textile material over rubber. With 50 meters of water resistance, this reference remains in active catalog as part of Hublot's recurring "Essential Grey" collection.

It's a recurring series Hublot has released every year since 2022, applying a monochrome gray palette to one of its existing models. It started with the Big Bang Unico, continued with the Spirit of Big Bang, and reached the Classic Fusion in 2024.
It's not a numbered limited edition, but it is an online-exclusive series, available as long as Hublot keeps it in catalog within the Essential Grey collection.
