Hublot presents a new Big Bang watch by uniting a micro-rotor tourbillon manufactured in-house with an ultra-lightweight, robust carbon fibre and Texalium case and a seamlessly integrated strap.

Limited to only 50 pieces, it fuses traditional Fine Watchmaking with Hublot’s cutting-edge spirit. Equipped with a tourbillon and micro-rotor, the in-house manufactured, skeletonised high-complication movement offers three days of full power reserve.

As for the tourbillon, Hublot has designed it to be skeletonized and suspended, integrated within a bottom plate dotted with transparent sapphire bridges.

The new Big Bang Integrated Tourbillon Full Carbon watch highlights successful fusion of various materials. Its movement is inserted in a carbon fibre case that is 43 mm in diameter. Thanks to its exceptionally well-built yet ultra-light construction, the watch head (case and calibre, without the strap) weighs just 42 grams.

For the new Big Bang Integrated Tourbillon Full Carbon, Hublot has covered the casing with Texalium, combining a fibreglass core with a thin top layer of aluminium. The fibreglass is integrated in a special resin to provide impact resistance, while the aluminium is 99.99% pure and scratch-resistant. All together it weighs approximately as much as a “full carbon” case.

Bringing together the interwoven nature of carbon fibre and Texalium with the HUB6035 Manufacture Calibre, Hublot created an exclusive openwork back plate for this timepiece. Placed behind the watch’s components, this open-worked structure allows light to penetrate to the heart of the movement.

Individually numbered, each timepiece comes with emblematic Big Bang features like the integrated strap (100% carbon fibre, protected by Texalium), crown with rubber insert, two side lugs to protect the case, six iconic functional screws on the bezel and the double sapphire crystal (face and back) with anti-reflective treatment.

Designed, manufactured and assembled in-house, the strap weighs just 26 grams, making it one of the lightest straps available today. Moreover, it is extremely comfortable thanks to a perfect integration with the case, but also because of the links exclusively designed for this model. Each link is individually machined and finished to achieve the perfect surface quality.
