Hublot MP-05 LaFerrari Sapphire watch expected to cost more than $300,000 – Video

Hublot has unveiled its new MP-05 LaFerrari Sapphire watch. Essentially a more exclusive version of the MP-05 LaFerrari, the MP-05 LaFerrari Sapphire was developed over a period of 18 months and features a case carved out of sapphire. The case is machined from seven blocks of sapphire and this process requires more than 600 work hours.

The LaFerrari Sapphire Watch features 637 components and has a tourbillon that provides an impressive 50-day power reserve. When the watch needs to be wound, owners use a miniature power drill that is modeled after the tire-changing tool used in Formula 1 racing.

The unique styling carries over to the band as buyers will receive a transparent silicon strap with a clasp that has components carved from sapphire.

Production will be limited to 20 units and each unit is expected to be priced at more than $300,000.
