Hublot MP-05 LaFerrari Sapphire

About this reference

The Hublot MP-05 LaFerrari Sapphire (Reference 905.JX.0001.RT) was released in 2016 as a limited edition of 20 pieces, following the original 2013 titanium version. This reference is valued for its technical architecture, featuring the manual-wind HUB9005.H1.PN.1JN movement with a record-breaking 50-day power reserve achieved through 11 series-coupled barrels. The case is constructed from seven blocks of polished sapphire crystal, requiring over 600 hours of machining to achieve its complex, car-engine-inspired shape. It utilizes a vertical tourbillon and digital display cylinders for time and power reserve. On the secondary market, this reference typically commands prices in the mid-to-high six-figure range, often fluctuating between $300,000 and $550,000 depending on provenance. A notable production detail is the inclusion of a dedicated electronic screwdriver tool modeled after Formula 1 tire changers, which is required to wind the movement and set the time.
