Hublot Aero Bang Drive ACF limited edition chronograph

Hublot Aero Bang Drive ACF limited edition chronograph

The new Hublot Aero Bang Drive ACF limited edition chronograph watch is created in partnership with the well-known l’Automobile Club de France, which is claimed to be the oldest automobile club in the whole world.



Available in a modest (for a Hublot’s watch) 44.5 mm case made of micro blasted black ceramic and resin, the Hublot Aero Bang Drive ACF features ACF’s colors: blue, gray and red. The dark blue colored luminescent substance covers all its hour indices, as well as hour and minute hands and small hands on all three chronograph totalizers.

Even the watch’s sapphire crystal is marked with ACF’s logo.

As you can see on the photo above, the watch features quite an unusual layout with its winding crown and push-pieces located at the left side. Great for those who are used to wear a timepiece on their right hands.

The watch is powered by the same HUB4200 in-house movement that comes inside all Aero Bang watches. It has a power reserve of pretty average 42 hours and consists of 252 parts and 27 jewels.

The whole series is limited to mere 250 pieces.
