Hublot is marking 2025 as the 20th birthday of its Big Bang series. As with any relevant milestone, the watchmaker commemorates it with the Big Bang 20th Anniversary collection. The five references in this capsule may not be suitable for everyone. If so, then perhaps the three fresh entries in the Big Bang Unico lineup will.
Apart from the impressive craftsmanship, sophisticated design, and precision timekeeping, the brand does not hesitate to experiment with aesthetics. This is a practice that most in the haute horlogerie scene tend to avoid. However, it’s usually the avant-garde that generates the most hype.
Hublot is rendering two of the new trio in premium ceramic, with one in a sapphire construction. It’s clear (no pun intended) that the crystal is becoming a material of choice for more than just covering the dial and exhibition case back. At 42 mm x 14.5 mm, the ceramic Big Bang Unico duo is the most compact silhouette among the bunch.
These can be yours in Mint Green (441.GS.5221.RX) or Petrol Blue (441.ES.5121.RX). Next, there is the Water Blue sapphire (421.JL. 4890. RT), which measures 44 mm x 14.5 mm. As always, titanium finds its way into all builds in the form of pushers, crowns, screws, and other metal components.
Hublot fills the spines of the hands and indices with white lume to aid with low-light readability. Despite their varying sizes, the latest additions to the Big Bang Unico catalog all feature an in-house MHUB1280 automatic caliber. The movement features 43 jewels and a 72-hour power reserve. Each reference features a matching rubber strap in its hue.
