Hublot has introduced the Big Bang Sapphire Sky Blue, a limited edition of 100 pieces that underscores the brand’s mastery of sapphire as a watchmaking material.

Delivering an impressive 10‑day power reserve, the movement features two parallel mainspring barrels and a distinctive rack‑and‑pinion system that creates a dual power reserve display across the dial. The matte sky‑blue skeleton dial and matching movement bridges reveal the mechanics in vivid detail, reinforcing the technical identity of the Meca‑10 caliber

Backed by Hublot’s 5+5 warranty program, which extends coverage up to ten years, the release reflects the brand’s confidence in its craftsmanship and innovation.
