To celebrate seven years of collaboration with UEFA Champions League, Hublot is launching an exclusive edition of the Big Bang Unico, limited to 100 pieces.
Hublot has been associated with the UEFA Champions League since 2008 with an initial collaboration with the UEFA EURO which then became a long-term partnership in 2012 as timekeeper and official watch.
Then in 2015, Hublot became timekeeper and official watch for the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League. Hublot is also the official supplier of the referee’s watches. Since 2018, Hublot has been the partner of the UEFA Europa Conference League (UECL) for the first 2021-2022 season and since 2019 for the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
For this new limited edition of 100 pieces, the Big Bang Unico sports the iconic UEFA Champions League blue, cut from micro-blasted ceramic. The key moments on the pitch are timed with the Unico 2– Hublot’s manufacture chronograph movement – a more complicated and advanced movement for irreproachable reliability.
The UEFA Champions League is the most prestigious European interclub competition – created 67 years ago as the “European Champion Clubs’ Cup”. At the time of its creation in 1955, UEFA had just written its articles of association.
In 1991, the straight knockout format was replaced with group stages after the round of 16, and the Cup changed its name to the UEFA Champions League in 1992, with eight teams initially in the competition. Today, the UEFA Champions League is the most-watched annual sports competition in the world. It’s also the favourite amongst the players, the clubs, and the fans.
