The fastest man in the world, virtuoso of the 100 metres, conqueror of the 200 metres! The man who broke records on the athletics tracks! Nicknamed “Lightning Bolt”, pure talent combining exceptional physical qualities with a relaxed and generous attitude, the 24 year old Jamaican sprint star took the occasion to be in South Korea to participate in the IAAF World Championships.

Like Bolt, Hublot is dedicated to the value of sharing, and is committed to sharing the company’s own success and making a contribution to support those who are less fortunate.
About Hublot, the exclusive story of Fusion
Hublot made its name 30 years ago when it became the first Swiss watch luxury brand to fuse precious metals with functional rubber, sparking a revolution for material innovation and aesthetics. In 2004, Mr. Jean-Claude Biver gave Hublot a great new boost and revolutionized watchmaking with the creation of the “Big Bang”, the multiple award-winning chronograph with a contemporary and elegant design, which marked the start of the spectacular success of the brand.
