Why is Hublot so expensive?

1 Answer
Why is Hublot so expensive?
Hublot is so expensive for a few reasons. First, the Swiss luxury watchmaker uses premium materials, some of which are produced by the company itself, adding to costs. Hublot also handcrafts timepieces through a painstaking process, so its labor costs are high. Plus, Hublot has been cited as only manufacturing around 50,000 watches per year, which makes supply low relative to demand. Shop a collection of Hublot watches on 1stDibs.
