What to know

Hublot’s 42 mm Classic Fusion Titanium Seddiqi 75th Anniversary gives its burgundy dial more than a different numeral set. The Eastern Arabic figures follow a counter-clockwise arrangement, matching the reversed movement of the hands. Seddiqi’s anniversary emblem replaces the usual marker at twelve, while rhodium-plated hands retain the Classic Fusion’s clean geometry.

The case combines polished and satin-finished titanium with a red strap. Hublot’s HUB1105 self-winding calibre provides a 42-hour reserve. Introduced in 2025, this anniversary edition should be distinguished from its 38 mm diamond-bezel companion. Its unusual direction of travel is a specific design choice, rather than a general rule for Arabic dials.
