The Hublot Big Bang 'Unico Italia Independent' is a limited edition timepiece released in 2015. The watch features a 45mm case crafted from a combination of carbon fiber and texalium. Texalium is a material that blends the strength and lightness of carbon fiber with an aluminum coating, giving it a distinctive metallic shine. This combination not only enhances the watch's durability but also lends it a sleek and modern look.
The semi-skeletonized dial provides a view into the Hublot Unico movement, a self-winding flyback chronograph with an integrated date function. The openworked design allows for a closer look at the mechanics of the chronograph, showcasing the complexity of the movement.
The color scheme of the watch is entirely blue, from the dial to the case, creating a cohesive and contemporary aesthetic. The strap, made from a combination of rubber and denim-inspired textile, ensures both comfort and resilience.
Produced as a limited edition of 500 piece, this timepiece reflects Hublot’s innovative use of materials and design for a unique and stylish chronograph. The present timepiece is in excellent condition and present close to no wear.
