HUBLOT MP-10 TOURBILLON WEIGHT ENERGY SYSTEM TITANIUM When it unveiled its revolutionary MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System Titanium watch earlier this year, Hublot introduced a concept that uses linear axes each with gold weight instead of a traditional rotor to power the watch. Powered by the new 592-part movement, HUB9013, the watch boasts a patent-pending system wherein two vertical linear solid-white-gold weights on either side of the center time display wind the movement bidirectionally and are protected by a Hublot-developed system of shock absorbers. The watch also features two new patents, including multiple rotating roller-like displays across the watch to indicate hours, minutes and power reserve. The seconds are indicated directly on the inclined (tilted) tourbillon (that compensates for errors in timekeeping due to the force of gravity on it when it is in certain positions). Devoid of a dial and hands, the rectangular watch is being made in a limited edition of 50 pieces. $275,000, hublot.com
