Hublot 2nd edition of Classic Fusion Special Edition Cheval Blanc Randheli
A year after unveiling the 2017 version of the Classic Fusion Special Edition Cheval Blanc Randheli, Hublot and Cheval Blanc Randheli are presenting the new collection of this special edition, in captivating yellow and taupe hues
Hublot’s second collaboration with Parisian artist Vincent Beaurin, this year’s limited and numbered editions for guests of the lavish Cheval Blanc Maison on the Noonu Atoll, is inspired by the sun that spreads its warmth on the island, the golden sand spanning its shoreline, and the splendid shades of taupe and pop yellow, which adorn the Maldivian Maison’s furniture, ornaments and art pieces.
Vincent Beaurin explains that after the pristine and deep Maldivian waters that inspired the previous creation, this new edition evokes sparkling light, wet sand, and a unique heat sensation that brings this feeling of fullness and letting go.
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, said that Hublot’s constant quest for different fusions between time, art and luxury has led to the creation of the new Cheval Blanc Randheli editions. They express a creative identity that remains true to both Hublot and Cheval Blanc Randheli in terms of watchmaking, design and understated elegance.

David Tedeschi, Regional Director Hublot Middle East and Africa, explained that the previous year’s special edition sold out completely the day it was launched at Cheval Blanc Randheli, and that the maison has received requests for it from all over the world. He added that they are confident the same would happen with the new collection.
Olivier Lefebvre, Head of Hotel Activities, LVMH Hotel Management, said that by its unique location and bespoke concept, Cheval Blanc Randheli is an ode to creativity and beauty. This Hublot watch is a perfect illustration of a creative dialogue between craftsmen and the artist, illustrating the Cheval Blanc art of living: taking time to forget time.
