The Caribbean-themed evening at Dubai Watch Week’s Citizen Kafé brought together cigar aficionados, watch collectors, and friends
The Mr. Ping Life Cigar World Tour kicked off its Dubai Watch Week Edition on November 17 with “The Art of Fusion” brand Hublot, in a fusion of time, cigars, and good company, in the presence of members of the Seddiqi family, and Regional Director of Hublot MEA Marco Tedeschi, and in collaboration with one of the region’s top horology print titles, “Day and Night” magazine.
Guests travelled in from all around the region and Europe, to discover the new Hublot Classic Fusion Fuente Limited Edition watches – the case, bezel, and crown of the three limited editions are finely engraved respectively with a drawing of tobacco leaves; a motif reminiscent of the earthenware tiles adorning the floors of Havana’s old colonial houses and incorporating the letter X, emblem of the Fuente family – while enjoying Arturo Fuente Opus X Destino al Siglo Lanceros and Opus X Angel’s Share cigars.
The event was livened by a dynamic trumpet and percussions duo, while famous Cuban cigar roller Virginia offered guests an all-authentic cigar-rolling experience by creating cigars live from tobacco leaves in front of them.
