​Takashi Murakami to Release Collection of 13 NFTs Linked to Physical Hublot Watches

Japanese artist Takashi Murakami has teamed up with Swiss luxury watchmaker Hublot to release a new collection of real-world watches linked to non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

The new collection, the fourth artistic venture between Hublot and Murakami, involves 13 unique NFTs that are inspired by Japanese video games and television shows from the 1970s. In addition, the NFTs are also modeled after the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black watch, which was launched in January 2021.

The NFTs are tied to 13 physical watches that will debut at the Watches & Wonders 2023 trade show in Geneva in April. Each digital replica is offered in a unique rainbow hue and features Murakami’s iconic smiling flower emblem.

Twelve of the thirteen timepieces will be made exclusively available to collectors who previously purchased one of the 324 Murakami and Hublot NFTs released in April 2022.

The final watch in the collection, which was unveiled at an event in New York on Thursday, is titled the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami Black Ceramic Rainbow and features a spinning flower adorned with rubies, sapphires, amethysts, tsavorites and topaz.
