To the moon and back

Packed with enough lunar elements to make a pack of wolves delirious, the Hublot Classic Fusion Aeromoon is a statement skeleton watch piece. The King Gold version is a lavish affair with a case that's polished and satin-finished in the brand's proprietary gold-mixed with a pinch of platinum. The sapphire crystal dial and faceted indexes lends the regal piece a sharp feel, setting off a trend that's sure to be a hit in Basel. Much of the restrained vibe of the piece is attributable to the open-worked triple calendar-its hefty case belies a slim silhouette, very obvious when you slip it on. The moon phase at 6 o'clock gives a clear view of the lunar cycle despite a stylishly frosted glass. It pops a cheeky surprise in a dial that's otherwise rigidly exquisite. It has a power reserve of 42 hours and a Self-Winding Moon Phase movement HUB1131. Black rubber and alligator straps complete the look.
