HUBLOT – AT THE CUTTING EDGE OF IDEAS

17th November 2017

Hublot is a champion of ground breaking innovation with a determination to change the world of horologie. This might seem like a bold claim, however, the respected brand has earned a reputation for doing exactly that. Its unique ability to create timepieces which combine tradition and reputation has firmly secured Hublot’s place in the history books.

At the cutting edge of new ideas Hublot has a strong personality – the Art of Fusion. More than just a slogan, it is an attitude and ideology that encompasses the very core of Hublot’s design ethos. Speaking of the brand’s creative flare CEO Ricardo Guadalupe said: “Hublot’s strength resides in its very clear identity – the art of fusion – this unique ability to create timepieces which combine tradition and innovation.”

And the beauty of the concept is that is all starts with a simple idea. Hublot appreciates that creativity can come about in the most curious of ways and it is this appreciation for thinking outside of the box that ensures the brand continues to look to the future. Here we shine a spotlight on why Hublot should always be your go-to for a timepiece that will stand out from the crowd.

For those who like a watch that leaves an impression the Big Bang Unico King Gold Ceramic is sure to impress. Set within a distinctive 45mm, satin finished king gold case it is a timepiece that commands attention.

The Big Bang was the first to feature Hublot’s first manufacture movement – unico. Taking four years to develop, the Unico movement is the fruit of intensive research and development by the brand. Made of 330 hand-assembled components this design also features a flyback chronograph function that can be rest at any time. Worn on a black structured lined rubber strap with king gold clasp and titanium insert deployant buckle, this timepiece makes for a striking addition to any collection.

Sleek and stylish this Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chrono is a true champion of exactly what makes Hublot tick. Made up of 207 components, the watch features a polished and satin finished titanium 45mm case with a vertical satin finished titanium bezel with six H-shaped titanium screws. The incredible design also features a black composite resin bezel lug and satin finished titanium caseback with sapphire crystal interior with anti-reflective treatment.

However, it is the HUB1155 self-winding skeleton movement that makes this luxury timepiece a real showstopper. Worn on a black rubber and alligator strap with Stainless Steel deployant buckle clasp it is the perfect design for those looking for a something that will be a real conversation starter.

Hublot has long been a brand proud to march to the beat of its down drum and this Spirit of Big Bang titanium design is a prime example of just how forward thinking the brand is.

For those looking for a radically different timepiece that shatters the norm, this is the timepiece for you. A radical departure for the Big Bang series thanks to its unique tonneau case and revolutionary design it is a must for fans of haute horolgerie.

The 42mm tonneau case sits flush on the wrist, offering the ideal platform to show off the intricate skeletonised dial. A feat of master craftsmanship it is a sight to behold while the HUB4700 caliber beats at an incredible 36,000 vb/h. One for those whole love to wear their style on their sleeve.
