Hublot’s iconic and award-winning Big Bang was first released in 2005 and has since paved the way for additional flagship collections. This latest collection, the Big Bang One Click 33mm is symbolic of the world we live in today and embraces the hope of a brighter future on the horizon. With two versions and fourteen possibilities, this collection presents opportunities for valuable and colourful personalisation.

Swiss watchmaker Hublot has consistently embraced a philosophy that positions it at the forefront of cutting-edge technology. Defined by innovation, this visionary brand strives to be first, different, and unique. Hublot continues to revolutionise through the creation of manufacture movements and pioneering materials such as scratch-resistant Magic Gold, sapphire and coloured ceramics that have become emblematic of its signature collections. The Big Bang One Click 33mm is no exception, available in stainless-steel or King Gold with an interchangeable rubber strap that transforms the timepiece to echo your mood.

For almost 10 years, the brand has been one of the only ones to use natural rubber to make watch straps that are recognised by enthusiasts as the Hublot signature style. The soft and supple touch of this unexpected material in Haute Horlogerie is an asset in addition to the range of colours that appeals to fans of precision and elegance.

With a range of ribbed-effect, natural rubber straps from black or white, to royal blue, sky blue, green, orange and much more, the Big Bang One Click 33mm and its patented “One-Click” system allows the watch to take on an alternative form with a simple click to alternate bracelets.

The simplicity and almost industrial design of the strap rubs shoulders with a more refined case to suit slender wrists. The feminine and sophisticated case is adorned with 36 diamonds that illuminate the bezel on the polished and satin-finished stainless-steel, or King Gold case. Alternatively, for those looking for more opulence, the Big Bang One Click Diamond Pave features a case set with 130 exquisite diamonds in addition to the diamond set bezel. Dependent on the material of the case, the diamond set bezel encloses either a black or white dial. The case houses the HUB1120 self-winding movement which proudly possesses a power reserve of 40 hours and water-resistance of up to 100 metres.

The rubber strap and sparkling case and bezel compliment one another in an unconventional yet sporty way. This is a timepiece for women who embrace elegance with a spirit of independence that allows the nonchalant way of wearing Haute Joaillerie as if it were another accessory.
