Not only was Hublot the first luxury brand to invest in football by partnering with the Swiss National Team in 2006, but now the company has one of the largest portfolios throughout the sport. Hublot’s partnerships cover international, European, national, women’s and club competitions, as well as legendary players and managers. This includes iconic competitions, clubs and figures such as the FIFA World Cup™, UEFA EURO (Men’s and Women’s), UEFA Champions League (Men’s and Women’s) and Europa League, Chelsea FC, Juventus FC, SL Benfica, AFC Ajax, as well as living legends such as Pelé, Maradona, Kylian Mbappé, Didier Deschamps, José Mourinho and Alex Morgan.

 

 

 

We are extremely excited and proud to become the Premier League’s Official Timekeeper. This is a milestone moment for Hublot. Since 2006, we have shown Hublot is hugely

passionate about football and that we add great value to every competition, club and talent with whom we partner. We look forward to working together to bring this partnership to life on and off the pitch. Hublot Loves Football and our partnership with the Premier League is the proof!

 

 

 

As Official Timekeeper for the League, Hublot will time every match pitch -side and on TV screens all over the world. The Hublot logo will sit alongside the on-screen graphic showing the match score and time. The Swiss luxury watch company will also be represented at every game via the iconic Hublot Big Bang Unico-shaped Referee Board held up by the fourth official to signal extra time and substitutions. Premier League referees will also time matches using a Hublot Big Bang luxury smartwatch, which includes goal-line technology. Between matches, Hublot will feature on all of the Premier League’s digital platforms.

 

 

 

We are delighted to welcome Hublot as the Premier League’s Official Timekeeper. Hublot brings a wealth of experience in sports timekeeping, particularly in football, and are renowned for being at the forefront of innovation. We look forward to working closely together and developing the partnership to bring exciting matchday and digital activations to fans around the world.

Following a very successful four-year partnership with the Premier League, TAG Heuer is gradually refocusing its investments on its core areas of sponsorship: motor sports and speed and precision sports. However, the Premier League is a fantastic platform which will further enhance Hublot’s already impressive football portfolio, and we are delighted to be able to retain this important partnership within the LVMH Watchmaking Division.
