Hublot Big Bang Unico Owner Review : Bold, energized and transgressive

If watchmaking is a technical art, then the Hublot Big Bang Unico Black Ceramic & Magic Gold is a masterful expression of it. This watch perfectly embodies Hublot's dear "Art of Fusion" philosophy, blending avant-garde materials, bold design, and high-flying watchmaking engineering. At the heart of this Big Bang beats the Unico caliber HUB1242, a flyback chronograph with a column wheel and horizontal clutch on the dial side (!!), entirely designed and manufactured by Hublot. This movement is a true technical feat, offering a 72-hour power reserve and perfect readability thanks to its skeletonized dial. The movement's architecture is both robust and spectacular, with a modern, industrial finish that blends perfectly with the watch's design. The flyback function allows the chronograph to be reset with a single press, a feature that is both practical and impressive. Hublot is a pioneer in the use of innovative materials, and this Big Bang is a perfect example. Magic Gold, an alloy patented by Hublot, is the first scratch-resistant 18K gold, thanks to its fusion with ceramic. This means this watch can be worn without fear of everyday scratches, and the gold has a more bronze-like appearance, making it less ostentatious and more rugged. As for the black ceramic case, it combines lightness with extreme strength. Hublot has mastered this ultra-technical material to create a case that is both elegant and extremely durable. The matte texture of the ceramic reinforces the sporty and sophisticated character of the watch, while making it incredibly comfortable on the wrist. The structured rubber strap, Hublot's signature, enhances the comfort and sportiness of the piece. Moreover, thanks to the One Click system, it is easily interchangeable, allowing the watch to be adapted to any occasion. Conclusion: An Avant-Garde Watch at the Service of Excellence The Hublot Big Bang Unico Black Ceramic & Magic Gold is a watch that perfectly embodies innovation and Swiss watchmaking expertise. Its high-performance movement, revolutionary materials and powerful design make it a unique timepiece, both technically and aesthetically fascinating.
