HUBLOT works in collaboration with Takashi Murakami on a timepiece remixing the MP-15. It returns in a limited launch as the two celebrate the iconic smiling flower. It is seen detailing the timepiece's case and it rests on the wrist at 42mm and the twelve petals along the watch are intricately accented with 444 colorful gemstones.
It is applied in a way that forms a captivating rainbow gradient along the watch's case crafted from sapphire. In addition to the colorful palette, it has the HUB9015 central flying turbillon that is smiling at the wearer. This is not the first time that the two are working together as they joined in 2021 as well. This time, the floral motif is the main focus.
