richardrp 1 Posted May 25, 2013 LUXURY cars and luxury watches target the same moneyed buyers, so its no surprise to see carmakers teaming with watchmakers to produce high-end timepieces. One of the latest is also one going to be one of the rarest. Just 50 of the Hublot MP-05 LaFerrari watches will be produced, with a price tag tipped to be $300,000 each ... about 60 per cent of the price of a Ferrari California convertible. Hublot is the official timekeeper for Scuderia Ferrari racing division, and the The MP-05 was largely inspired by the engine of the flagship LaFerrari. The titanium and carbon-fibre case houses a face that gives the impression of looking at an engine through the car's glass cover, showing 11 barrels on a spine that hold hand-wound power for 50 days, cylinders that indicate time and power reserve, and anodized aluminium reinforcing bars in Ferrari red. But even at that hefty ask, it's not the most expensive watch Hublot has created -- that honour goes to the Big Bang 5 Million, so named because of its $5 million price tag. http://video.carsguide.com.au/2381730458/Luxury-watch-celebrates-LaFerrari-engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cuddilyteddy 0 Posted May 25, 2013 I am not a fan of either that car or that watch, although I respect its engineering. BTW a california convertible is less than 300k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
