Japanese artist Takashi Murakami and Swiss luxury watchmaker Hublot have joined forces to unveil a collection of watches linked to NFTs. In fact, this marks their fourth artistic collaboration, drawing inspiration from 1970s Japanese video games and TV shows. The NFTs are also modeled after the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black watch launched in 2021.
Murakami X Hublot Debuting in Geneva?
The collection will debut at the 2023 Watches & Wonders trade show in Geneva, featuring 13 unique NFTs, each tied to a physical watch. Moreover, these digital replicas boast a unique rainbow hue and boast Murakami’s signature smiling flower emblem. However, only collectors who previously purchased one of the 324 NFTs released by Murakami and Hublot can purchase these timepieces.
