The story behind this Hublot Big BangIn 2005, the manufacture unveiled a timepiece that would redefine the conventions of the contemporary watchmaking industry. Under the leadership of Jean-Claude Biver, the brand launched the concept of ‘The Art of Fusion’. The idea is to combine traditional materials with industrial technical components. The 301.SB.131.RX model embodies this vision with a design that layers steel and ceramic. This model breaks with prevailing classicism to offer a resolutely contemporary approach. Its structured design and layered construction meet the expectations of a clientele seeking a technical timepiece. The combination of a classic metal alloy with natural rubber creates a visual signature unique to the brand.Case, movement and strap of this Big BangThe stainless steel case measures 44 mm in diameter and features alternating polished and brushed surfaces. It is topped by a matt black ceramic bezel secured by six H-shaped titanium screws. Black composite resin inserts on the sides accentuate the profile of the case middle. The dial is crafted from woven carbon fibre and features luminescent applied hour markers as well as a date window. A slender red central hand dedicated to the chronograph function brings the display to life with its geometric counterweight. This mechanical movement is powered by the self-winding HUB4100 calibre. The movement comprises 252 components, including 27 jewels, and delivers a power reserve of 42 hours. The oscillation frequency is set at 4 Hz. The open-worked oscillating weight is visible on the case back through a transparent sapphire crystal. The watch is water-resistant to 100 metres. It is secured to the wrist by a textured black rubber strap fastened with a steel folding clasp.Why this Hublot watchThis chronograph exemplifies the brand’s revival in the 2000s.
