Hublot MDM Genève Blue Dial – Gold/Steel Automatic Ref. 1551.2

A rare and highly desirable early Hublot, this MDM Genève Ref. 1551.2 represents the original spirit of the brand before the Big Bang era—minimalist, nautical-inspired, and designed with a focus on refined sport luxury.

This particular example is especially sought-after as the automatic version, powered by the reliable ETA 2892, and featuring the elegant blue dial paired with Hublot’s signature gold/steel case construction. With its full-length uncut rubber strap, butterfly buckle, and screw-down crown, this piece captures the essence of 1990s Hublot design in its purest form.

The Dial – Refined Blue Minimalism

Hublot’s early MDM models are known for their clean lines and distinctive maritime character. The deep blue dial of this example gives it a refined, understated presence.

  • Elegant blue dial with satin finish

  • Applied “Hublot” logo and branding

  • Gold-tone central hands

  • Date window at 3 o’clock

  • Crisp printing and clean overall condition

The blue dial adds sophistication and subtle vibrancy, making this model one of the most attractive executions in the early MDM lineup.

The Case – Gold/Steel Classic MDM Design (36mm)

The Ref. 1551.2 features the recognizable porthole-inspired case that defined early Hublot aesthetics.

  • Gold and steel two-tone construction

  • 36 mm diameter

  • Excellent preserved condition

  • Bi-directional rotating bezel

  • Screw-down crown for improved water resistance

  • Sharp and clean lines with original finishing

The case offers a refined yet sporty wrist presence, ideal for both casual and elegant wear.

Movement – ETA 2892 Automatic (Rare Automatic Variant)

Most early MDM Hublot pieces were quartz, making this automatic version extremely rare and collectible.

  • ETA 2892-2 automatic movement

  • Smooth, reliable performance

  • High-grade, thin Swiss caliber used in many luxury watches

  • Date function

The movement elevates this reference significantly above its quartz counterparts in both desirability and value.

Strap & Buckle – Full-Length Uncut Rubber Strap

A signature element of early Hublot design is the pioneering use of natural rubber straps—years before it became industry standard.

  • Original full-length, uncut Hublot rubber strap

  • Hublot signed butterfly clasp

  • Soft, comfortable, and perfectly integrated to the case

Full-length straps are increasingly difficult to find, especially in this condition.

Crystal – Sapphire Glass

The watch is fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, adding durability and clarity to the dial presentation.

My go-to sublimation paper for crafting
Size: 8.5"x11"
I've used several sublimation papers, and this one has worked really well for my crafting projects. The colors transfer bright and vibrant, and the images come out crisp with good detail when using the proper sublimation printer and ink. The paper feeds smoothly through my printer and feels like a good quality weight—not too thin and not overly thick. I've used it for tumblers, keychains, and other sublimation projects, and I've been happy with the results. I also appreciate getting 110 sheets in one pack because it lasts a while, especially when working on multiple projects at once. Overall, this is a reliable sublimation paper that gives consistent results and is great for crafters or small business owners.

Excellent Quality
Size: 11"x17", Size: 11"x17"
This paper is the only paper I have ever tried with my sublimation printer. I get the most vibrant colors with every transfer. I have not experienced any fading even after washing multiple times. I have purchased this paper in letter size, 11x17, as well as 13x19 for use on welcome doormats. I have not been disappointed with any. The paper feeds through my printer without issue whether I load a single sheet, or multiples. So far, I've used it to sublimate on dishtowels, garden flags, welcome mats, t shirts, sweatshirts, and mugs. I am always happy with the finished product. I highly recommend this sublimation paper, and it can usually be found at a great price. I advise you to stock up when you see a sale
