Multi-layered wine barrel appearance

Contains rich functional heritage

In 2014, Spirit of Big Bang was launched to pay tribute to the tenth anniversary of Big Bang. It is HUBLOT's first series with non-round cases. In terms of design, the unique barrel-shaped case combines a multi-layered case, an open-worked hollow dial, and 6 H-shaped titanium screws on the bezel representing HUBLOT. It inherits the classic design elements of Big Bang and presents Enrich the visual sense. Especially from the side of the case, you can appreciate the black parts of the bezel, case, middle case and crown, which stack up to create rich layer changes like whiskey. It is not only a visual contrast and conflict, but also a mutual integration, showing the beauty of the movement operation and mechanical structure to the greatest extent.

Not only is the appearance design unique and full of charm, the movement installed in the Spirit of Big Bang is also particularly exquisite. HUBLOT has specially created a variety of barrel-shaped movements for this series. For example, the HUB6020 tourbillon 5-day chain movement, which came out in 2019, is the brand's first tourbillon movement built for a barrel-shaped case. What's special is not only the barrel-shaped outline of the movement, but also the asymmetric configuration of the movement: the hour/minute indicator at 3 o'clock, the power reserve at 8 o'clock, and the tourbillon at 6 o'clock. There is a subtle sense of balance within the barrel-shaped case. Vibrating at a frequency of 21,600 vph, it has an excellent performance of up to 115 hours of power reserve. Combined with the radial-shaped hollow bridge structure, it displays excellent functional connotation through a strong visual sense, just like a whiskey with a spicy taste and rich heritage. Through the interpretation of different material cases, it brings a completely different style.

The Spirit of Big Bang series not only has a unique barrel shell shape, but also the movements it carries are particularly exquisite. HUBLOT has specially developed a variety of barrel-shaped movements for the series, showing full craftsmanship.

purple sapphire

Profound clarity reveals a sense of the future
The Spirit of Big Bang Tourbillon watch uses purple sapphire to interpret the futuristic sense of Cyberpunk technology. The transparent purple sapphire case can fully display the functional movement structure of the HUB6020, while shining with magical and gorgeous light, presenting as if Macallan is as rich and deep in color as Gran Reserva matured in sherry barrels for 12 years. It is a high-level demonstration of sapphire craftsmanship in the watch industry. Thanks to the most advanced sapphire generation and processing technology mastered by HUBLOT, sapphires of various colors with clear, saturated colors and complex structures have been used in various series of the brand in recent years. Among them, the shell shape shaped like the Spirit of Big Bang wine barrel is the most distinctive and is also very difficult to process.

The multi-layered case of the Spirit of Big Bang consists of the upper structure and bezel, the two upper covers at the end, and the lower structure of the case back. A total of 4 precision-processed sapphires form the multi-layered case of the Spirit of Big Bang. Due to the hyperboloid surface and the design of the case back lines, it is necessary to use The most advanced 3D processing technology and more than 100 hours of precision grinding and cutting can perfectly present the high light transmittance and exquisite smooth lines of purple sapphire. At the same time, because of the high light transmittance of sapphire, it cannot be flawed during the processing, which is a major test for processing technology.

sky blue carbon fiber

Strong sense of hardcore functionality
Another Spirit of Big Bang tourbillon watch is made of carbon fiber with sky blue markings to create a loft retro industrial atmosphere. The rough texture and high contrast color matching further strengthen the visual function of HUB6020. The hardcore style is just like Craigellachie It has the same strong spicy aroma as Exceptional Cask, which has been matured in bourbon barrels for 19 years. It is also one of the few carbon fiber watches with stylized colors in the watch industry.

HUBLOT is one of the few brands in the watch industry that has complete carbon fiber parts processing technology, so it can give carbon fiber richer material effects through changes in the processing process. For example, the carbon fiber watch case with colorful markings is a composite fiber material composed of glass fiber non-woven fabric added to the basic carbon fiber raw material, which is then impregnated with colored epoxy resin and then cast and formed at high temperature in a special mold. . The produced watch case not only has a more stylized patterned appearance, but also has better strength and toughness than a simple carbon fiber watch case, and has both function and appearance.

Whether it is colored sapphire, carbon fiber, or colored ceramics, metal, etc., HUBLOT can always explore infinite possibilities from the material technology it masters, and perfectly apply it in its various watch series. Just like the barrel aging process brings richer flavor changes to whiskey, the material technology also makes HUBLOT's originally distinctive series become extremely exciting!
