Hublot big bang watches have had many references in nautical design over the years, so the links between the design of the watch and that of the watch of the maritime world have often inspired the creation of imaginative timepieces.
History
The Swiss watch brand Hublot was founded in 1980 by Carlo Crocco. The porthole of a boat inspired the design of his watches. Hublot is a Frenchman for the porthole. The Hublot Classic line featured twelve screws all along with the bezel, which not only created a water-resistant wristwatch but also eliminated the need for a time indicator on the dial. This resulted in a sleek and unobtrusive design in its finished form. The bracelet was made from natural rubber, whose design using steel fibers woven into the material imparts a tactile yet powerful and comfortable functionality.
Material
Still using the design of the porthole, synonymous with the Hublot brand, the Big Bang featured six screws through the bezel. The use of rubber was still in evidence, but it is now combined with an incredible number of other advanced materials, including ceramic and titanium carbon fibre, aluminum and tungsten. These are the combination with red gold, white gold and stainless steel in a glorious fusion of traditional and futuristic. It is therefore not surprising that this superb wristwatch has become a laureate of the charts, including the prestigious “2005 Design Prize” of the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix.
Luxury watches
The Hublot Big Bang has become a stunning example in the field of high-end luxury sports watches, and other models have been endorsed by the sports world. The limited-edition Flyback Rattrapante Chronograph Hublot Big Bang Limited Edition Ayrton Senna is an excellent example. Limited to 500 pieces, this spectacular watch is created in a black ceramic case, with steel details and a signed transparent exhibition case, mounted on a signed black rubber strap. This is truly a men’s wristwatch created to honour Ayrton Senna, triple F1 world champion.
