Hublot loves football! The luxury Swiss watch company \u2013 first, unique, different \u2013 is delighted to announce the unveiling of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 202 Official Countdown Clock.
\nSunday marked one year until the tournament gets under way on November 21, 2022. The countdown started with a kick-off from French FIFA World Cup winner and Hublot Friend of the Brand, the legendary Marcel Desailly, who was joined on stage by coach Sami Trabelsi and local ambassador Adel Khamis.
\nThe clock, which forms part of a striking sculpture that stands 5,75 metres high, will stand on the Qatar capital Doha\u2019s Corniche Fishing Spot, a beautiful pier overlooking the shimmering waters of the Persian Gulf.
\n“Exactly one year to go,\u201d said Hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe. \u201cThe world will be brought together during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 in a festival of football like never before.
\n\u201cOnce again, Hublot is so proud and so excited to be the tournament\u2019s Official Timekeeper and to be timing every match, right through to the final on December 18th 2022. This will be the fourth time we\u2019ve performed the role, a great honour that will put Hublot on television screens in living rooms all over the world.
\n\u201cFootball, or soccer as it\u2019s known in the US, is such a beautiful, intricate game that brings pleasure \u2013 and sometimes pain \u2013 to billions of people around the globe.
\n\u201cThe discipline of mechanical watchmaking is a perfect fit. The best teams run like clockwork, Hublot loves football.”
\nHublot became the first luxury company to enter football in 2006. It first timed the FIFA World Cup in South Africa in 2010, a role it reprised four years later in Brazil and then again in Russia in 2018.

\nThe company is now the first name in football timekeeping, with partnerships and timekeeping responsibilities for the UEFA European Championships (known as the Euros), the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League.
\nIt\u2019s also the Official Watch of some of the world\u2019s most prestigious football clubs, including Juventus, Chelsea, Ajax and Benfica, and is proud to count a number of the game\u2019s most celebrated individuals as Ambassadors, including Pele, Jose Mourinho, Didier Deschamps and superstar French striker Kylian Mbappe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
