The limited-series watch is equipped with soccer-oriented features.
Swiss watchmaker Hublot is set to serve as the official timekeeper of the 22nd FIFA World Cup for the fourth consecutive year.
Marking the event, the company launched a new series of watches on Oct. 14.
The Jakarta launch event took place at a Hublot pop-up store in Plaza Indonesia on Thursday.
Limited to 1,000 pieces worldwide, the watches feature updated functions for soccer fans. Wearers can track the teams’ line-ups and player profiles 15 minutes prior to the playoffs for each game. The watches also provide the details on goals scored by players.
Dial and strap designs are available in 32 different colors resembling the flags of the countries participating in the Qatar World Cup.
Other functions include an accelerometer, gyroscope, microphone, GPS and heart-rate monitor.
