About the Hublot Classic Fusion 511.CM.1770.RX Black Magic
The Hublot Classic Fusion was introduced as a cleaner, more understated counterpart to the brand's flagship Big Bang, distilling the Art of Fusion concept into a thinner, more versatile case while retaining Hublot's commitment to unconventional materials. The 511.CM.1770.RX Black Magic takes that philosophy to its logical extreme by executing every visible element in black ceramic, from the bezel and case to the dial and crown, creating total visual continuity across the watch. Ceramic is prized in horology for its exceptional hardness, low density relative to steel, and resistance to fading, making it especially well suited to a reference designed to maintain its deep matte-black finish over years of daily wear. The automatic movement inside the Black Magic is self-winding, a practical choice that matches the reference's role as an everyday luxury sports watch.
What to Look For
When shopping the 511.CM.1770.RX, condition of the ceramic case is the primary value driver because ceramic, while highly scratch resistant, can chip at edges if subjected to sharp impacts, so buyers should request detailed photographs of the bezel, lugs, and case flanks. The black rubber strap is a consumable component and its condition affects overall presentation, though replacement straps are readily available through Hublot authorized service; confirming box and papers with a pre-owned example will meaningfully support resale value down the line.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Hublot Classic Fusion 511.CM.1770.RX Black Magic different from other Classic Fusion references?
The 511.CM.1770.RX is distinguished by its all-black ceramic construction, encompassing the case, bezel, and dial, which sets it apart from titanium, gold, or two-tone Classic Fusion references.

Is the Hublot Classic Fusion 511.CM.1770.RX a good watch to buy as a pre-owned piece?
Yes, the 511.CM.1770.RX is a strong pre-owned choice because ceramic holds its finish exceptionally well compared to polished steel or gold, meaning a well-kept example can present nearly like new. Buyers should prioritize pieces accompanied by original box and papers and verify that the ceramic shows no chips, as the Black Magic's all-ceramic construction is central to its aesthetic appeal.
What is the case size of the Hublot Classic Fusion 511.CM.1770.RX?
The 511.CM.1770.RX measures 45mm in diameter, placing it in the larger segment of the Classic Fusion size range, which also includes 33mm, 38mm, and 42mm variants in other references.
