News Hublot has a new ambassador in the person of Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt, the fastest man of all time (9.58 seconds over 100 metres and 19.19 seconds over 200 metres).
For Hublot, Usain Bolt is not only an exceptional athlete, but also a man who shares his gifts with simplicity. Like him, the brand gladly helps to support those who are less fortunate via the fruits of its success. Usain, for his part, is involved personally in a number of foundations working on behalf of children, particularly in Jamaica.
For Jean-Claude Biver, the CEO of Hublot, «seeing your watch worn by the world’s fastest man sends out a strong message! The notion of time, for him and for us, is sacred. While we measure it, Usain always succeeds in beating it!» Meanwhile Usain Bolt declared: «I’m delighted to join other prestigious ambassadors such as Manchester United, Diego Maradona and the Ayrton Senna family, and I hope that my times will continue to improve with Hublot!»
