Hublot Lights Up Place Vendôme

PARIS — Hublot is lighting up Place Vendôme — literally.

To mark the opening of its store at 10 Place Vendôme — Hublot’s second in Paris — the Swiss watch brand on Friday gave something back to the City of Light, financing a new installation to illuminate the 200-year-old column erected by Napoléon Bonaparte in the center of the square.
