WHEN SUMMER LASTS FOREVER
The manufacture rolls out a limited series featuring the colors of the French Côte d’Azur. These references are only on sale in the brand’s stores in Monaco and Saint-Tropez.
From Mykonos to Capri, the shades of blue the Mediterranean Sea and sky boast have always been an inspiration for Hublot watchmakers. With these hues in mind, the new 50-piece limited edition whisks us off to yet another well-loved destination, the South of France. The Big Bang Unico Azur as such takes on the colors of the French Riviera. The white bezel contrasts with the shade of the 42 mm-diameter, 14.5 mm-high microblasted ceramic case. This resolutely winning combination gifts the watch with a summertime personality. And, this model’s set off even more thanks to the duo of straps that comes with it. The first in rubber attached by a titanium folding clasp matches the primary azure hue, the second, an immaculate braided fabric one, center stages it even more. You can switch straps ever-so easily without using a tool thanks to the fast change system.
The dial displays the traditional time data scenography intrinsic to this chronograph from the brand. The 60-minute counter with integrated date aperture at 3 o’clock is symmetrically positioned with the small seconds nestling at 9 o’clock. The hour chapter comprises numerals and markers adorned with Super-LumiNova®. Measured time along with the hours and minutes are driven by the HUB1280 caliber that can be admired though the openworked scenescape. This selfwinding movement, assembled using some 374 components, delivers a substantial power reserve of 72 hours. Performance and style in harmony once again!
