Introducing Hublot Launches the Big Bang Unico Winter Editions

Building on the seasonal concept that began with the Summer editions in 2017, Hublot now embraces the colder months with two winter inspired versions of the Big Bang Unico. The Winter Sapphire and Winter Titanium Ceramic editions are designed to reflect the visual atmosphere of snow, ice, and alpine landscapes, expressed through transparent surfaces, crisp white tones, and subtle ice blue accents.

Both editions share the same case dimensions, measuring 42 mm in diameter and 14.5 mm in thickness. The Winter Sapphire version is crafted entirely from polished transparent sapphire crystal, while the pushers, crown, and screws are made from titanium. The Winter Titanium Ceramic version features a microblasted titanium case paired with a microblasted white ceramic bezel and matching side inserts.

On the caseback, both models are fitted with a sapphire crystal that allows a clear view of the movement. The Winter Sapphire edition offers water resistance of 50 metres, while the Winter Titanium Ceramic edition increases this to 100 metres, supported by its screw down crown.

The dials of both watches are fully skeletonised and finished in rhodium tones, complemented by light blue accents that reinforce the icy winter theme. The hands, Arabic numerals, and applied indices appear suspended above the movement and are filled with luminous material for enhanced visibility. The chronograph layout includes a 60 minute counter at 3 o’clock that integrates the date display, a small seconds counter at 9 o’clock, and a visible column wheel positioned at 6 o’clock.

Inside both watches beats the in-house HUB1280 Unico Manufacture movement. This automatic flyback chronograph operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) and provides a power reserve of 72 hours. The movement also features a distinctive snowflake shaped rotor visible through the caseback.

Both editions are delivered with a white rubber strap and a white calfskin leather strap, secured by a titanium deployant clasp and supported by Hublot’s One Click quick change system. An additional white rubber and blue calfskin strap is also included.

The Sapphire version is limited to 30 pieces and is priced at CHF 70,000, approximately AED 317,700, while the Titanium version is limited to 200 pieces and priced at CHF 22,900, approximately AED 104,000.
