Big Bang MP-11 14-Day Power Reserve Water Blue Sapphire
Supplier code: 911.JL.0129.RX
When Hublot put a brand-first in a Manufacture Piece, you know to expect greatness. And this time, it’s the new interpretation of sapphire. We’ve seen Manufacture Pieces in ceramic, SAXEM and Magic Gold to name a few, but this model incorporates Hublot’s material of choice: sapphire. Crafted entirely in translucent blue sapphire, or ‘Water Blue’, its material is based on a new chemical formula, several years of research and development in the making. With all the properties of sapphire we love including its brilliance, luminous aesthetic, and its 100% resistance to knocks and scratches, this shade puts a whole new perspective on this robust material. Paired with lined, structured rubber straps in the exact same shade, this Big Bang timepiece has a style that’s simply show-stopping.
Pioneering craftsmanship doesn’t stop there, the technical details are just as ground-breaking. The Hublot HUB9011 manual winding calibre has 270 components and a patented index-assembly system with a silicon escapement, and boasts a remarkable power reserve of two weeks, or 336 hours (yes, you read that right!). The timepiece showcases a 7-barrel movement, which can be seen placed in front of the 45mm skeleton dial. You can also see the 90° transmission which uses a helical worm gear between 9 and 10 o’clock, and the balance at 2 o’clock. A power reserve indicator is displayed above the barrels, completing its full rotation every two weeks. This timepiece features a water resistance of 30m and Hublot’s signature ‘One-Click’ system, so you can switch up the straps with ease when you feel like it.
"The uniqueness of Hublot – a fully integrated Manufacture – lies in its technical excellence in terms of both its movements and its exterior. R&D is at the heart of our DNA, and each MP, shaped by our profoundly innovative approach, is an opportunity for us to test new sapphires that may later become part of our regular collections. Our MPs are a laboratory, an exploration of what the watchmaking of tomorrow might look like today." - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.

Big Bang Unico Orange Ceramic
Supplier code: 441.CU.5910.RX
Described by Hublot themselves as ‘A Clockwork Orange’, it’s time to put something truly unique (and brilliantly vibrant) on your radar. This Big Bang Unico Orange Ceramic watch is limited to only 250 pieces, and showcases a new ceramic colour which we’re sure has caught your eye already. A unique alchemy achieves this aesthetic, with a mirror-polish finish and flawless resistance to shocks and scratches. After extensive research and development and 100% in-house expertise, Hublot first incorporated bright colours into Big Bang Unico watches in 2019, and this orange hue comes after striking red, blue, and yellow models. Featuring counters, hands, and lined black and orange rubber straps in the exact same shade, this timepiece is sure to steal the show.
Driven by Hublot’s latest generation of automatic flyback chronograph movement, the MHUB1280 UNICO 2, this watch features a column wheel at 6 o’clock, calendar display at 3 o’clock, a black-plated tungsten oscillating weight, and silicon escapement. You can observe some of the components in all their glory through the skeleton dial, along with chronograph counters at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock. Boasting a power reserve of 72 hours, 100m water resistance, and ‘One-Click’ system, Hublot never fail to deliver iconic style and resilience combined.
"Ceramic is part of Hublot history, but it's a history that is still being written. We've never stopped innovating. It's in our DNA. From our first ceramic bezel in 2005 to the 100% ceramic cases – which we are currently the only company to master in such a wide array of colours. And that's just the beginning. We've got a lot more to come! " - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.
Big Bang Unico Dark Green Ceramic
Supplier code: 441.GX.5210.RX
If one thing’s for sure, it’s that bold colours are on Hublot’s radar this year. This timepiece also comes in a dark green version, the Big Bang Unico Dark Green Ceramic, and if you’ve been keeping an eye on your favourite luxury watch brands recently, green is a colour you should know about. We’re firm believers that if Hublot says green’s a colour to love now and forever, they’re definitely right.
Big Bang Unico Pink Sapphire
Supplier code: 441.JP.4890.RT
Pink and pristine, we never doubted Hublot’s ability to wow us with colours and materials, and this Big Bang Unico Pink Sapphire proves it. Limited to 100 models, it showcases a 42mm case in polished pink sapphire crystal, with the UNICO 2 Manufacture self-winding chronograph flyback movement at the heart. Showcasing a skeleton dial with pink accents, it’s the timepiece of every pink lover’s dreams.
In 2024 (and beyond) we’re loving watches full of colour. A trend that we saw flourish at LVMH Watch Week 2024, our experts predicted to see more colour at Watches and Wonders this year, and it’s safe to say that Hublot have exceeded our expectations. The Hublot difference? The brand’s meticulous development to incorporate powerful colour with high-tech materials. Talk about kicking off this trend with a bang!

Spirit of Big Bang Sang Bleu
Supplier codes: 648.JX.0102.RT.MXM24, 648.OX.9010.RX.9904.MXM24, 648.WX.9010.RX.9904.MXM24
After 8 years of collaboration with typographer, tattooist, and artist Maxime Plescia-Buchi, Hublot are letting us know that their unique, geometric-style creations are far from over. In fact, the partnership is reaching whole new levels of complexity and creativity. The first Hublot X Sang Bleu model was released in 2016, and fused Hublot’s expertise in fashioning materials with the famous tattoo studio’s iconic polygonal designs. in 2024, the new Spirit of Big Bang Sang Bleu timepiece joins a longstanding line-up on innovative creations, but this time, it’s the first Sang Bleu model to be crafted in Hublot’s material of choice: sapphire.
“Beneath Maxime’s spatially redesigned features, it is like we achieve this duality every time, whereby the watch’s DNA is simultaneously identical and yet so very different. While the sapphire gives Maxim’s three-dimensional tattoos a new geometric aesthetic, it has also provided us with the opportunity to reconsider their technical production, to take on new challenges, to optimize our processes, and to overcome new constraints. Each model drives us to improve ourselves in a quest for both technical and aesthetic excellence. To machine sapphire into the demanding geometry of Sang Bleu’s polygonal tattooing meant that we once again had to push back our boundaries in the mastery of this iconic material. There is no longer any doubt that Hublot is the leader in making sapphire timepieces!” - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.
Ingeniously combining strength and softness in a high-tech creation, the transparency of sapphire is what gives this timepiece its edge. The 42mm case is crafted in the iconic barrel shape, with a thickness of 15.7mm, resulting in the perfect ergonomics for all wrist sizes. Accompanied by white transparent smooth rubber straps, it’s designed as a geometric watch to be tattooed on your wrist. The dial features overlaying hexagons, rhombuses, and triangles to give the pieces its original, 3D aesthetic. Enhanced by the protruding sapphire, which extends from the dial to the case and bezel, the features are sharp and methodical, further evidencing Hublot’s expertise in machining the demanding designs into robust sapphire.
“2024 marks eight years of collaboration with Hublot, and three iterations: the first in 2016 with the Big Bang Sang Bleu; the second in 2019 with the Big Bang Sang Bleu II; and finally the Spirit of Big Bang in 2023. While every design is produced using a similar approach, transposing the principles of my tattooing across to Hublot’s specific watchmaking space, the result is different every time, as it is applied to a different base. In 2016, it was the Big Bang 3 Hands, in 2019, the Big Bang Chronograph and in 2023 the Spirit of Big Bang Chronograph. This time, in addition, we are transposing what the DNA itself has become, the fusion of Hublot and Sang Bleu, onto a Hublot signature material never before applied to our collaboration: sapphire. This is a highlight for this collaboration because sapphire is, in itself, the most noble material used in the watchmaking industry, while it simultaneously bestows something ghost-like and futuristic, virtually architectural, onto the pieces. This corresponds exactly to what I seek to produce in all my projects.” - Maxime Plescia-Buchi, Founder of Sang Bleu and Hublot Ambassador.
The curvatures of the barrel-shaped case contrast with the chiselled, angled designs by Sang Bleu, and through the disc hands on the dial, you can glance at the HUB4700 self-winding chronograph movement. A skeletonised movement, boasting a power reserve of 50 hours and a date window at 4:30, displays an oscillating weight, which has been designed in the iconic Sang Bleu style. Limited to only 100 pieces, this timepiece was meticulously developed by 3D machining, amounting to a total of 100 hours work. It’s definitely one for the collectors and lovers of statement geometry.
The timepiece also comes in two other variations: Sang Bleu High Jewellery. Crafted in either 18ct King gold or 18ct white gold, each timepiece is set with 243 diamonds in total, weighing 13.6ct. Baguette cut diamonds adorn the case, bezel, dial, and clasp on the black smooth rubber straps. Scintillating and sharp, they’re a match made in (Hublot) heaven.

Square Bang Unico
Supplier codes: 821.MX.0130.RX, 821.CM.0130.RX
Proving that luxury and durability aren’t mutually exclusive are the latest additions to Square Bang Unico. Previously, all models in this collection have been crafted in titanium, but this year, Hublot are giving us the first models crafted in Magic Gold, their in-house developed, exclusive 18ct gold alloy. Magic Gold combines the luxury and lustre of gold into a scratch-resistant metal: the first and only 18ct gold alloy to be completely scratch-resistant. Certified by the Central Office for Precious Metals Control, Magic Gold has a Vickers hardness rating of 1,000, compared to 400 of normal 18ct gold, and 600 of hardened steel.
"Twelve years ago, Hublot invented scratch-resistant 18-karat gold and named it Magic Gold. This now needs no introduction. Today, it is part of Hublot's DNA. The Square Bang? Again, the same debate: no[1]one expected us to attempt this. But, of course, that's exactly what we did. And the Square Bang Magic Gold will now also become a key part of Hublot's history." - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.
At first glance, the bezel has all our attention. This timepiece’s strongest feature, the model comes in two variations, one with a Magic Gold case and matching bezel, and the other with a ceramic case and Magic Gold bezel. A truly standout feature, traditional bezels are slim, but in signature Hublot style, the brand has decided against convention to create a protruding, large bezel that takes centre stage.
Underscoring the geometry of the case, the bezel is crafted from a solid block of gold, from which it gains its height and thickness. With concaved sides, a domed surface, and soft edges, Hublot have also achieved another rarity in watchmaking; a polished bezel. This finish is not common in a timepiece, the polishing makes the bezel vulnerable to scratches. However, thanks to the strength and durability of Magic Gold, Hublot’s imagination runs free when crafting the bezel.
With the capability of maintaining its beauty and robustness over time, we can also see the classic Square Bang features; the uniquely shaped case with lugs on either side, the skeleton dial, the 6 H-shaped screws on the bezel, and the ‘One Click’ strap changing mechanism displayed on these timepieces. Whilst the chronograph movement, date feature, and bicompax manufacture are all synonymous with Unico. Driven by the the UNICO 2 manufacture self-winding chronograph flyback movement with column wheel, this model boasts a power reserve of 72 hours. We don’t know about you, but we can’t wait to see more from Hublot’s creations with Magic Gold in the future.
Big Bang Unico Ice Bang
Supplier code: 441.CK.1140.NR.HEC24
Coming back with a bang, this Big Bang Unico Ice Bang watch is inspired by the original released in 2006. A Hublot online exclusive, this timepiece is limited to only 100 models, and its powerful aesthetic, strong lines, and statement two-tone are the nostalgic style we didn’t know we needed in 2024. The numerals and mechanics are superimposed on the matte black 42mm skeleton dial, harmoniously combined to give this watch its daring good looks. Crafted in black micro blasted ceramic, the material is developed in-house to achieve its deep colour, and is also lightweight, hypoallergenic, and stainless. The stand-out feature here is the tungsten bezel, adding light tones to this audacious piece, and Hublot didn’t forget those iconic 6 H-shaped screws, either.
Just in case you need to switch up your style with this timepiece, the ‘One-Click’ system makes it oh-so easy to swap the interchangeable straps. With one strap in Velcro mesh, and one strap made from striated black rubber, you can have the best of both worlds when it comes to sporty and sophisticated style. The HUB1280 Manufacture calibre, a self-winding flyback chronograph movement is at the heart of this watch, with the column wheel, and calendar disc beneath the hour indices with a date window at 3 o’clock all on show through the dial. Equipped with a water resistance of 100m and power reserve of 72 hours, we couldn’t be happier that Hublot have decided to give us this updated version of a classic timepiece at Watches and Wonders 2024.
“The very first Ice Bang was launched a year after the phenomenal success of the Big Bang, as Hublot realised its vision to integrate new materials in an extreme design on a whole new level. It is this dynamism that continues to propel us into the future, smashing through any barriers we might encounter. We are also applying this principle by bridging any distance: we're delighted to be able to offer online access to this limited series to everyone – collectors and non-collectors alike – so now you are just a few clicks away from an experience like no other!" - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.
Big Bang Integrated Time Only
Supplier codes: 457.CX.1270.CX, 457.EX.7170.EX, 57.NX.1270.NX, 457.NX.7170.NX, 457.OX.1280.OX, 457.OX.7180.OX
Ready for a return of a classic? We’re journeying back to 1980 when Hublot released a timepiece that sent shockwaves through the watch world, and maintains its legendary status to this day. Meet the Big Bang Integrated Time Only watch, with all the original DNA of the first Big Bang model. Showcasing the powerful, solid dial and integrated bracelet, these six models are a return to the brand’s roots, with a modern twist. The iconic features are the two ‘ears’ on each side of the case, six H-shaped screws on the bezel, skeleton hour and minute hands, classic indices, and rubber crown. The distinguishing factor on the new timepieces, though, is the 38mm case size. In a rare release, the diameter is reduced from 40mm to achieve a universal size that fits everyone.
The six timepieces can be divided into three metals: titanium, King Gold (an exclusive Hublot alloy), and ceramic. The titanium and King Gold watches are available in two dial colours, black and navy blue, and each dial is made of soft ferromagnetic steel. The ceramic models are crafted entirely in two colourways; the navy blue ceramic piece is exemplary of Hublot’s maritime spirit, and the black ceramic piece captures the brand’s signature ‘Black Magic’ style - the first ever ‘Black Magic’ watch to be constructed with a 38mm case. The timepieces are driven by the MHUB1115 self-winding movement with a date window at 3 o’clock, an oscillating weight, and Hublot design tungsten openwork rotor. Complete with a power reserve of 48 hours and a water resistance of 100m, it has all the innovation and emblematic design you’ll ever need, and we’re loving the modern vintage spirit these watches offer.
"For the last 40 years, Hublot has shown itself to be unique and different. And that's what we do best. But, does that mean that's all we can do? Certainly not! The original Big Bang – the ultimate in simplicity and efficiency – is still eagerly sought after by all our customers. We have had a series of 40-mm models, and we're now offering six 38-mm variations. "Classic" is a word I never use for Hublot, but it's true in this case: The Big Bang Integrated Time Only is truly a classic!” - Ricardo Guadalupe, Hublot CEO.
