Hublot Spirit Of Big Bang Skeleton Ceramic and Titanium

Most likely, when you hear Big Bang, you imagine that well-known case with the brand's six proverbial screws and round shape, and we can assume with a great deal of certainty that this elongated, curved, and extravagant form, which looks more massive and increases the watch's presence on the wrist, does not come to mind. The watch presented to your attention is part of the brand's Spirit of Big Bang series, an automatic chronograph, with a 51mm by 45mm case made of black ceramic and a rubber strap with a ceramic and titanium clasp. The other thing that certainly makes a strong impression is the very beautiful skeletonized dial. The watch is designed with the idea of making the entire movement visible, as its many details perfectly complement the ceramic case. The abundant luminescence allows for easy reading of the time, both during the day and at night. Through the sapphire case back, the brand allows us to enjoy the Hublot Calibre HUB 4700 movement – based on the Zenith El Primero 400, an automatic chronograph – with a power reserve of over 50 hours, operating at 36,000 vibrations and constructed with 27 jewels. From whichever angle we look at the watch, we get the feeling that we can touch every single small detail of this work of horological art. A mechanical recitation of the facts. So what does this watch possess to deserve its position in the high price segment where it is found? Yes, it does not have the long-standing history and popularity that a Submariner or a Seamaster can boast, the mythological stories of the Fifty Fathoms or the Radiomir, but it possesses several very important characteristics to become one of the cult watches in its class. First, the quality – starting from the materials used, passing through the finish of every detail and ending with the overall composition and the impression that this watch leaves upon examination, this characteristic does not raise a shred of doubt – this watch is not just well-crafted, it can boldly be placed in the ranks of the best and most competently made watches in existence. Second, the distinct appearance – this is one of its great advantages, and the fact that it is made from modern materials further contributes to the overall presence. Indeed, this is not a watch you would call fine, elegant, or sophisticated, but no one wants it to be. This is an instrument, designed to be an instrument, crafted as an instrument, and looks just like an instrument – massive, somewhat raw, simple in its handling, and truly attracting the attention of those around and bringing pleasure from its presence to its owner.
