Hublot Haute Joaillerie Collection 2020: New High Jewellery Versions of Big Bang Unico, Spirit of Big Bang and Classic Fusion Models

Hublot expands its Haute Joaillerie collection by offering three new diamond set watch models that marry the technical performance of the manufacture movements, the sophisticated beauty of diamonds and the expertise of master watchmakers.

Hublot Big Bang Unico High Jewellery

Arranged in close rows in invisible closed settings on an 18-karat white gold background, 243 diamonds (8.6 carats) adorn the 42 mm case and the bezel, while 61 stones (1.3 carats) impart a contemporary opulence to the dial of this new fly-back chronograph watch.

Its beating heart is the HUB1280 calibre, the Unico 2 manufacture movement featuring brand new architecture and innovations including an oscillating second clutch and an adjustable ball-bearing chronograph friction system. Four patent applications have been filed for this complex movement.

This high-jewellery watch is paired with an alligator strap featuring a deployant buckle set with 30 diamonds (2.6 carats). Total diamonds: 334 baguette-cut diamonds (12.5 carats).

Hublot Classic Fusion High Jewellery

In an invisible closed setting that allows the merest glimpse of 18-karat white gold, no fewer than 391 diamonds (18.6 carats) encrust the elegantly contemporary Classic Fusion High Jewellery in its entirety, producing a hypnotic shimmering effect. The indices and hours are built into a circle around the hands, creating an impression of height.

A composition of rectangular and trapeze-cut stones covers the entire surface of the dial, converging in the centre beneath which beats the HUB1710 self-winding movement.

The buckle on the alligator leather and natural rubber strap is also set with 36 diamonds (2.2 carats). Total diamonds: 427 baguette-cut diamonds (20.8 carats).

Hublot Spirit of Big Bang High Jewellery

Hublot HUB4700 movement is one of the finest Swiss chronographs ever created. Its design is directly inspired by the Big Bang, a unique case construction that allows for an infinite combination of materials.

In the High Jewellery version, 178 diamonds (8.1 carats) adorn the silhouette of its tonneau case, while 113 more (2.1 carats) are set around the edges of the indices and the minute disc at 3 o’clock, the hour disc at 6 o’clock and the second disc at 9 o’clock.

The elegant strap, in alligator leather sewn onto natural rubber with a buckle set with 55 baguette-cut diamonds (2.9 carats), completes this precious piece. Total diamonds: 346 baguette-cut diamonds (13.1 carats).
