Text: Aleksandar Mladenovic

During LVMH Watch Week 2023, which is going on right now in Singapore, novelties are presented from Hublot, Zenith, Bulgari and Tag Heuer. Eqotime takes a look at a majority of the novelties from Hublot!

Hublot Classic Fusion Original in 33mm, 38mm and 42mm

3 years ago Hublot launched a tribute to its first model during its 40th anniversary. A stripped-down, limited edition in the size 45mm and in 3 different case materials with clear traits of its first model – MDM Genève.

New for this year is thus this model in three different sizes that are not limited. The models are found in the case materials titanium, ceramic or yellow gold. The two larger variants have Hublot's automatic calibre HUB1110 under the bonnet with 42 hours of power reserve whilst the version that measures 33mm is driven by a quartz movement.

The editorial team appreciates that the model is now offered in several different sizes since the limited edition only came in a relatively large size of 45mm.

The prices for each model read:

42mm titanium – 8,600 euro, 42mm ceramic – 10,400 euro, 42mm gold – 25,200 euro

38mm titanium – 8,200 euro, 38mm ceramic – 8,900 euro, 38mm gold – 21,400 euro

33mm titanium – 6,800 euro, 33mm ceramic – 7,600 euro, 33mm gold – 18,600 euro

Hublot Big Bang Tourbillon Yellow Neon SAXEM

Hublot likes to push the boat out when it comes to the choice of materials and next up is their new Big Bang Tourbillon SAXEM where the latter stands for Sapphire Aluminium oXide rare Earth Mineral. A mixture of aluminium oxide and thulium as well as holmium. The neon yellow colour has taken Hublot 3 years to produce.

Inside the neon yellow case ticks their in-house movement calibre MHUB6035, which is attractively skeletonised.

Limited to 50 pieces with a price tag of 220,000 euro.

Hublot Big Bang Integrated King Gold Rainbow

What would a run of novelties from extravagant Hublot be without masses of precious stones and gold? The Big Bang Integrated King Gold Rainbow is these days found in two versions completely set with rainbow-coloured precious stones, with or without a chronograph.

The chronograph comes in a 42mm large case with a chronograph movement developed in-house and set with colourful precious stones where those in the crystal ring are baguette-cut. The price tag lands at a neat 176,000 euro.

The version without a chronograph measures 40mm and has a somewhat more reasonable price tag of 165,000 euro.

Hublot Spirit of Big Bang 5-day Power Reserve

They are also releasing two novelties in the Spirit of Big Bang collection where one has a case in purple sapphire crystal and the other in carbon fibre with blue accents. Both models house the skeletonised, manual, calibre HUB6020, which means a 1-minute tourbillon and 5 days of power reserve.

The models are limited to 50 examples of each and the one in sapphire costs 215,000 euro and the one in carbon fibre 105,000 euro.

Hublot Classic Fusion Gold Crystal 42mm

This version of the Classic Fusion model comes in a black ceramic case where the dial is decorated with flakes of 24k gold that are protected by several layers of transparent lacquer. Judging by the various pictures the editorial team has had sight of, each dial also seems to be unique in its execution.

Hublot Big Bang Unico SORAI

Yet another limited version, the third in the line, where parts of the proceeds go to the organisation Save Our Rhinos Africa India. Grey ceramic case of 44mm with a skeletonised dial where a rhinoceros is found in the small dial that shows seconds.

Limited to 100 examples with a price tag of 25,200 euro.
