October 9th 2025, Singapore - Pioneering Swiss luxury watchmaker Hublot has announced the latest evolution in its ongoing partnership with celebrated American artist and Hublot Ambassador, Daniel Arsham: the Hublot MP-17 MECA-10 Arsham Splash Titanium Sapphire.

Following the success of the transformable pocket watch, the MP-16 Arsham Droplet, this new timepiece once again rewrites the rulebook on watch design, finding its inspiration in the dynamic essence of water, organic forms and transparency.

The MP-17 Meca-10 Arsham Splash Titanium Sapphire is the perfect blend of Hublot's Art of Fusion and Arsham's unique fictional archaeology vision, where he reimagines contemporary objects as ancient artefacts, blurring the lines between past, present and future.

Arsham's first wristwatch design for Hublot, the timepiece is a wearable sculpture with Arsham's creative direction dripping from every fluid curve. The compact 42mm case size has been made possible through the integration of Hublot's new, smaller Meca-10, an in-house manual-wind movement that can be seen through the dial opening and sapphire caseback.

The choice of sapphire crystal – used for the frosted box-shaped bezel – titanium and rubber as the raw materials underpins the essence of Art of Fusion and has provided the perfect base to sculpt the watch's organic shapes that are inspired by flowing water.

The defining feature is a striking splash-shaped opening on the dial, which is a direct evolution from the MP-16's droplet inspiration.

Arsham's view of time is central to his design approach. In his 2016 TED Talk, he explained, “My work is about collapsing time. You're not quite sure if it's an object from the past or the future.”

While the MP-16 Arsham Droplet brought that concept to life through form, the new MP-17 Meca-10 Arsham Splash Titanium Sapphire focuses on how time leaves an impression.

With its fluid case lines, splash-shaped dial opening, and transparent sapphire components, it blends Arsham's artistic vision with Hublot's Meca-10 movement to deliver both concept and performance in a wearable design.

At first sight the watch seems to be a departure from the familiar Hublot form, yet on closer inspection, all of the signature elements are there including the six H-screws on the bezel and caseback, the distinctive lugs at 3 and 9 o'clock and the titanium H-shaped folding clasp. Arsham green accents are found on the hour and minute hands, the numerals, the hour and five-minute markers, the small seconds hand at 9 o'clock and on the power reserve indicator at 3 o'clock.

Daniel Arsham adds, “This collaboration with Hublot explores the fluidity of time through a case inspired by the perfect geometry of a water droplet, crafted using Hublot's Meca-10 movement. The watch's transparent structure captures the clarity and motion of water, suspended, precise, and always in flux.”
