Hublot Reveals a Big Bang Unico Full Magic Gold Limited-Edition
An amalgamation of the brand’s two icons.
Hublot’s Big Bang Unico Full Magic Gold is a celebratory limited-edition that fuses two of the brand’s most important offerings — the Big Bang Unico model, and the patented magic gold alloy material.
Dubbed by Hublot as the “first scratch-proof 18k gold,” the watch case is crafted from polished magic gold. The watch is attired in the model’s iconic 44mm sandwich construction, alongside the usual features such as the large pushers, skeleton dial, the 6 unaligned screws on the case, and the interchangeable rubber strap. Powering the timepiece is Hublot’s in-house self-winding UNICO 2 chronograph movement, geared with 72 hours of running time and water resistance of 10 ATM.
Speaking on this special time-teller, Hublot’s CEO, Ricardo Guadalupe says, “We first launched it in 2005, which means that this year, the Big Bang is turning eighteen! A major milestone for Hublot, but also for the industry, in that it created not only its own look, spirit, universe, and technical achievements but also its own large community of fans and collectors. At the same time, at 18, it remains as fresh and carefree as the day it was released. The Big Bang still has a lot to say. The proof is in this “Full Magic Gold” version, which truly embodies the essence of our Manufacture.”
Retailing for $38,000 USD, the Big Bang Unico Full Magic Gold is limited to 200 units, and only exclusively available via Hublot’s official website.
Elsewhere in watches, the Versace Dominus now comes in a range of colorways.
