Kobe Bryant releases new watch for Hublot

Kobe Bryant has once again teamed up with luxury Swiss watch brand Hublot, creating a new limited edition timepiece called the ‘Classic Fusion Kobe Bryant HeroVillain'.

Inspired by the basketball star's legendary career, the ceramic watch features a black snake applique in a nod to his nickname "Black Mamba." The sapphire case-back features a printed "KOB16" logo, and each piece is engraved with its special edition number, ranging from one to 24, as only 24 models will be created.

"The Classic Fusion Kobe Bryant HeroVillain symbolizes my life as a HeroVillain during my 20-year basketball career, as I strive to channel my fears and doubts into strength and determination," said Bryant at the watch's launch party.

The star first joined forces with Hublot in 2013 with the King Power Black Mamba Chronograph, before collaborating with the brand on the 2015 Big Bang UNICO Chronograph Retrograde Kobe "Vino" Bryant model.

The Classic Fusion Kobe Bryant HeroVillain is available exclusively at Hublot's brand new Beverly Hills Boutique.
