If skull art does not excite you then the Hublot Classic Fusion Tourbillon Skull unveiled at the 2014 Baselworld might not be your choice of design though the timepiece exudes amazing craftsmanship. But worry not; along with it the Swiss watchmaker has also launched new Hublot Classic Fusion Tourbillon Vitrail at the luxury watch and jewelry expo and not only does it set new standards in horology but also come with some new technology. The watch will be available in 4 versions: Red or Blue with a 45mm titanium case, and Red or Blue with 45mm lack ceramic case.
