Here’s a collaboration we didn’t see coming. Swiss watchmaker Hublot has teamed up with Nespresso to build a limited run of timepieces made from recycled coffee pods.
The aluminium pods themselves become the case, bezel, crown (complete withNespressologo) and pushers of thewatch, while coffee grounds are transformed into a pair of straps made from rubber and Velcro fabric.
Of course, there are more ingredients here. Nespresso and Hublot say 28% of the aluminium used to make the case comes from Nespresso capsules, while the rubber strap is made up of 4.1% coffee grounds and 8.2% recycled white rubber. The additional Velcro strap is made from 95% recycled polyester and 5% coffee grounds.

The watch has 10 metres of water resistance, although there’s no word on what happens when it’s submerged in a mug of boiling water with a splash of milk…
The intricate automatic movement, which is also visible through the exhibition case back, has a date complication at the three o’clock position, 43 jewels and an impressive power reserve of 72 hours. That means you could take the watch off on a Friday evening and it’ll still be keeping the correct time through Monday afternoon.
