HUBLOT COUNTS DOWN TO LIVERPOOL’S SIXTH UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE VICTORY
CLASSIC FUSION CHRONOGRAPH UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUETM
After 95 minutes of play, the final whistle signalled a victory for the Reds. A sixth for Liverpool, with a score of 2-0, the decider came in the last minutes of the match, with the added time writ large on the 4th official’s Hublot board. Sweet revenge for the final lost to Real Madrid last year.
To stay up-to-date, follow: @Hublot #Hublot #HublotLovesFootball It was at the Estadio Metropolitano, home of Atlético Madrid, that the winner of the 64th UEFA Champions League was decided. On the pitch, two English clubs – Liverpool’s Reds and London’s Tottenham Hotspur. The first, a UEFA Champions League veteran, having competed in nine finals, including last year’s loss to Real Madrid. The second having just played its first ever UEFA Champions League final.
A surprise final, with an unsurprising victor – Liverpool! There was no arguing with the statistics when the final whistle blew on this 64th UEFA Champions League final: Tottenham and Liverpool have met 170 times in various competitions, with the Reds dominating Spurs by almost two to one.
Sport this on your wrist: the legendary Starball, formed of 8 stars arranged to represent the emblematic UEFA Champions League ball, is displayed on the dial of the Classic Fusion Chronograph UEFA Champions LeagueTM
This Official Licensed Watch sports the competition’s colours: a midnight blue case made from polished and satin-finished ceramic, and a matching leather strap with white stitching.
Since its first foray into football in 2006, Hublot has celebrated many victories and successes. After the 2018 World Cup, the watchmaker confirmed its status as Official Licensed Watch partner of the UEFA Champions League TM for the fourth year running.

HUBLOT
Founded in Switzerland in 1980, HUBLOT is defined by its innovation, which began with the highly original combination of gold and rubber. This “Art of Fusion” stems from the imagination of its visionary Chairman, Jean-Claude Biver, and has been driven forward by CEO Ricardo Guadalupe since 2012.
The release of the iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 paved the way for new flagship collections (Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang), with complications ranging from the simple to the highly sophisticated, establishing the extraordinary DNA of the Swiss watchmaking house and ensuring its impressive growth.
Keen to preserve its traditional and cutting-edge expertise, and guided by its philosophy to “Be First, Different and Unique”, the Swiss watchmaker is consistently ahead of the curve, through its innovations in materials (scratch-resistant Magic Gold, ceramics in vibrant colours, sapphire), and the creation of Manufacture movements (Unico, Meca-10, Tourbillon).
HUBLOT is fully committed to creating a Haute Horlogerie brand with a visionary future: a future which is fused with the key events of our times (FIFA World CupTM, UEFA Champions League, UEFA EUROTM) and the finest ambassadors our era has to offer (Chiara Ferragni, Pelé, Kylian Mbappé, Usain Bolt, Novak Djokovic).
