Hublot releases Japan-exclusive model "Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue"

Hublot has announced a new addition to its iconic Big Bang collection: the Japan-exclusive "Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue," featuring a unique black and sky blue pattern. This model is a color variation of the "Big Bang Unico Carbon White," which will be released in 2022, and will be sold in a limited run of only 100 pieces.

A Japan-exclusive Big Bang with a unique contrast

　The Big Bang, one of Hublot's most representative collections, is a flagship collection that combines avant-garde design that combines different materials with the company's own chronograph movement, the Unico. The design concept of the lineup is truly free-flowing, and the brand is known for its highly ambitious approach to unique challenges.

　This time, a unique carbon case model has been released as a Japan-exclusive model of the Big Bang, decorated in a chaotic mix of sky blue and the brand's signature black.

　This two-color combination is a first for the series, but by fusing the strong contrast they create with the many elements that are symbolic of the Big Bang, this watch successfully creates a sporty yet glamorous presence. This fusion that makes the most of each of the watch's characteristics embodies Hublot's brand concept, "Art of Fusion (the fusion of different materials and ideas)."

　The carbon fiber material used for the case and bezel is made by permeating nonwoven microfiber fabric (NWF) and carbon fiber with epoxy resin. In this model, a sky blue composite is added to it, creating a unique pattern that appears as if the two colors are unevenly mixed together.

　The skeleton dial is unified in black, creating a chic look that stands out against the refreshing sky blue. The Unico (caliber HUB1280) movement, which can be seen through it, has a power reserve of approximately 72 hours and a flyback chronograph function, and its intricate structure can be enjoyed from both sides of the case.
