Frequently Asked Questions - Classic Fusion Aerofusion Moonphase King Gold Diamonds 517.OX.018 HUBLOT

How do I set the moonphase on my Hublot Classic Fusion Aerofusion Moonphase?

To set the moonphase, pull the crown to position 2 (middle position) and rotate it clockwise until the moon disc displays the correct lunar phase. Use the reference moon phase indicator on the dial or an online lunar calendar for accuracy.

Is the Hublot 517.OX.018 water-resistant? Can I swim with it?

The watch has a water resistance of 50 meters (5 ATM), which is suitable for splashes and brief immersion, but not for swimming or diving. Avoid pressing the chronograph pushers underwater.

What type of movement does the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Moonphase use?

It uses the Hublot HUB 1900 automatic mechanical movement, which powers the chronograph, moonphase, and date functions with a 42-hour power reserve.

How do I wind the watch manually?

If the watch has stopped, unscrew the crown to position 0 (neutral) and turn it clockwise about 20-30 times to fully wind the mainspring. The watch will then start running automatically.

What is King Gold?

King Gold is Hublot's proprietary 18K gold alloy, which is more resistant to fading and scratching than standard gold. It contains a higher percentage of copper and other metals for a warmer, redder hue.

Can I replace the strap on my Hublot Moonphase?

Yes, the strap can be replaced using Hublot's 'One Click' system. Press the oval button on the lug to release the strap. Hublot offers various rubber, leather, and fabric straps.

How do I set the date on the watch?

Pull the crown to position 1 (first click) and rotate it clockwise to change the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.

Does the watch have a battery? How long does it last?

No, the watch is mechanical and powered by motion. It does not require a battery. When fully wound, it runs for approximately 42 hours without movement.

What is the recommended service interval?

Hublot recommends a full service every 3 to 5 years, depending on usage and wear. The price varies but typically ranges from $500 to $1,000.

How many diamonds are on the bezel?

The bezel is set with approximately 48 round diamonds, totaling about 0.80 carats. The exact number may vary slightly per production batch.

MOVEMENT & FUNCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

This is a watch with a bold personality, providing a spectacle in full relief through its transparent sapphire dial. The CLASSIC FUSION AEROMOON is a skeleton watch featuring contemporary architecture and a full calendar displaying the moon phases, as well as simple date, day and month indicators.

Commanding a central position, the moon phase serves as a reminder that, long before time was measured in hours, minutes and seconds, the moon was used to track the passage of time. Hublot has revisited this complication, dressing it in lunar greys for a modern, stylish twist. The lunar cycle is reproduced in a large, round 13 mm diameter window at 6 o'clock. The two alternating moons are visible thanks to the partially dulled sapphire. This disc completes one revolution (every 29.5 days) over two lunar months, and is driven by a 59-tooth wheel which advances one notch every 24 hours.
