HUBLOT and renowned Japanese artist Takashi Murakami have joined forces once again to introduce the MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow. Limited to 20 pieces, the Hublot x MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow combines Murakami’s iconic flower motif with Hublot’s first central tourbillon. The MP-15 celebrates the shared ethos of breaking boundaries and exceeding expectations that defines both Murakami’s art and Hublot’s craftsmanship.

This new creation brings Murakami’s iconic smiling flower into the world of haute horlogerie, combining artistic expression with advanced watchmaking technology. Limited to just 20 pieces, the timepiece features Hublot’s first-ever central tourbillon movement and intricate gem-setting.

Within the 42mm sapphire crystal case lies a central flying tourbillon, a rare and complex mechanical feat. Hublot’s HUB9015 manual-winding movement powers the watch with an impressive 120-hour power reserve. The domed sapphire crystal features Murakami’s signature smile, framing the central tourbillon, while two hand tips orbit its edge to display the time in a visually captivating way.

The watch’s twelve petals are set with 444 colorful gemstones, including rubies, sapphires, amethysts, and topazes, each carefully selected to create a rainbow effect. Hublot’s expertise in gem-setting shines through in the meticulous arrangement, ensuring each petal reflects Murakami’s vibrant color palette. A transparent strap featuring the flower motif and a sapphire crystal buckle complete the design.
