HUBLOT – BIG BANG SANG BLEU II Edition
















HUBLOTBIG BANG SANG BLEU II 45 Limited Edition - 2020

Blue is the new black! A true piece of sculpture for the wrist, the Big Bang Sang Bleu II is available in new limited editions. Evolving from ancestral practice to worldwide cultural phenomenon, tattooing is now an art form in its own right, thanks in large part to the work of visionary artists such as Maxime Plescia-Büchi, the founder of Sang Bleu.

The Big Bang Sang Bleu II is a horological expression of his perfect mastery of geometry and volume. A timepiece crafted as a sculpture or a work of art to tell the time... these concepts overlap to create a unique, timeless watch brought to life by Hublot's expertise in materials.

The work of Maxime Plescia-Büchi assumes its full symbolic significance in this piece, with the new editions bearing the colours of Sang Bleu. This transposition of his geometric art, almost architectural in its structure, onto a watch illustrates the very best of the Art of Fusion.”
Ricardo Guadalupe - CEO of HUBLOT

These new versions are blue, just like the ink used by the tattoo studio, Sang Bleu. The colour appears on the dials and straps, embellishing the web of geometric lines that criss-cross the hands, bezel and case. Available in titanium or King Gold, with or without stone setting, and boasting a generous diameter of 45 mm, the case houses a Unico manufacture movement, the HUB1240 automatic chronograph, which offers a 72-hour power reserve.

The Art of Fusion is expressed right through to the heart of the movement. Simple watches with innovative watchmaking concepts, Hublot has created a range of unique “in-house” movements. A unique design of the Unico automatic chronograph. By developing its own automatic chronograph movement, Hublot wanted it to be – like all of its creations – the first, different and unique.

As the soul of the watch, this movement with an “open heart” reveals its completely re-imagined design, with double coupling system and column-wheel from the dial side. Its construction of 330 components has been simplified as much as possible to improve reliability and robustness.

As a master of fusion and an alchemist of precious metals, Hublot has developed a new gold color with a warmer shade than the traditional 5N 18K gold.

Containing mainly platinum, this exclusive King Gold alloy perfectly lends itself to all elements of polishing and satin finishing. Hublot watches blend the most unexpected materials like high-tech ceramic, rubber and carbon.
