Hublot Big Bang UNICO Watch Review

Hublot is probably one of the least known luxury brands (especially in the watch industry) – especially because many people think they understand it. Hublot is actually the epitome of a “non-fragile” company that someone recently described to me. This view holds that fragile companies are companies that are not good at dealing with criticism or complaints. On the other hand, non-fragile companies actually thrive in the face of criticism and sometimes even controversy. Hublot got too many negative comments from watch collectors, but the brand seems to have been getting stronger and stronger. Cheap Hublot Replica Watches is a less vulnerable company whose prosperity depends on negative and positive feedback. No one in this crazy and busy organization is sensitive to the fact that many of the more conservative watch collectors use most of the opportunities to express their dissatisfaction with the brand’s products. Hublot continues to offer more things that people seem to like, and there are more things that seem to irritate some of the more outspoken members of the watch enthusiast community.

2015 is the 10th anniversary of the Swiss watch brand Hublot Big Bang. After Jean-Claude Biver sold Blancpain to the Swatch Group, he used his income to buy the troubled Swiss brand Hublot.

With Hublot’s big bang and modern adoption of bold luxury sports watches, Hublot is able to change the face of the modern sports watch industry forcefully and permanently. Love or hate, their strategy is “Hublot Way”, which is a powerful, positive and effective way to make a brand attractive and culturally relevant. Do the products they produce meet the requirements of professional, niche, and high-end watch enthusiasts? But at the same time, a closer look at the many elements of Hublot Replica found that the company contained almost everything that even the most discerning watch collectors were looking for. However, you do need to screen for different levels of interference to find it.

People usually know that I am an apologetic Hublot fan, and for a few months, I have been wearing this Hublot Big Bang UNICO shoe, which has continuously increased the number of my Fake Hublot Watches fans. No, I don’t like everything they do, but I really like Hublot’s theme and their unique perspective on contemporary horology. Perhaps because of the influence of “Biverian”, still, although he is now technically a CEO of a different company (TAG Heuer), but the most influential brand and marketing expert in the spiritual watch industry, Jean-Claude De Beaver maintains the current CEO of Ricardo Guadalupe under the leadership of today.

The relationship between Jean-Claude Beaver and Louis Vuitton has matured. One of the more interesting factors is: 1) after he sold the company to LVMH, it did not decrease much; 2) after he resigned as CEO After a post. Today, Jean-Claude Biver is still involved in the Hublot event. His most common email address is @hublot.com. So now, 10 years after the Big Bang was first released, the product still enjoys his energy and passion – this passion has gone beyond marketing and is easy to see in the product itself.

The original 44mm wide Hublot Big Bang watch is still in production today (there are countless variants), so the larger and more modern Hublot Big Bang UNICO is not what I call a replacement. However, the Hublot Big Bang UNICO 45mm (originally debuted in 2013 by aBlogtoWatch) is between the 44m wide Cosmic Big Bang and the 48mm wide King Power series. In fact, I have guessed it a few times. The 45mm wide Hublot Big Bang UNICO case has replaced the King Power case more or less because it looks and feels similar, but more modern and ergonomic.

In the article mentioned above, I introduced Hublot Big Bang UNICO for the first time, you can read more about the evolution of the design, and how this case really started in Hublot’s Big Bang Ferrari, which was adapted into a modern one. Big Bang. So let me step back and say that if you want a smaller, simpler watch line, the original Hublot big bang case is still available and worth a look; but if you want a best timepiece Hublot must provide today , then I suggest you look at Hublot Big Bang UNICO.

From the perspective of watch enthusiasts, Hublot Big Bang UNICO is one of Hublot’s most proud achievements. Although Hublot has been in the company for a long time, most of their modern history, the company’s in-house Hublot Replica Watches sports are dedicated to their most expensive and unique models, such as the tourbillon. Reserved. “UNICO” is actually the name of the mobile platform that can be modified and modularized to provide a range of complex functions. In its purest form, UNICO Automated Motion provides time plus timing (and date), which is a good representation of the HUB1242.

The development of UNICO took at least 4-5 years, on the premise that the company hopes to get rid of the strict dependence on the Swiss Eta Valjoux 7750 and 7753 automatic timing movement to power its watches. It’s not that these sports are bad, but they are not exclusive, and they don’t fully capture the completeness of Hublot’s personality. For internal mass-produced products (which does not mean singular movements such as tourbillons that are not mass-produced), Best Hublot Replica Watches needs a sturdy, reliable, flexible and aesthetically pleasing internal movement, which may be the majority of their watches. Cornerstone.

I remember visiting Hublot in 2010 a few years ago, when UNICO was still under development before it was released. The wheel manufacturer has a large unfilled space that will eventually accommodate the production equipment that produces the moving parts of the watch. Recently, Hublot opened a second factory near its headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, which they affectionately called “H2” and increased production space.

The purpose of the UNICO campaign has always been to provide as much as the Valjoux 7750 and some other models. The 7750 mobile phone is so common that there are good reasons. This is a reliable main movement that provides good performance, reliability and usable components. UNICO needs to provide at least the same performance and reliability while adding some elements to the equation. The basic performance statistics have a 72-hour energy reserve at 4 Hz (28,800 bph). Compared to the 7750, the timer has been improved with the addition of a column drive (which can be clearly seen through the dial) and a reverse device (which means you can reset the timer without stopping the timing) ).

So, on paper, UNICO offers more than 7750 (it has been replaced more or less), so visually? Well, this is where UNICO really shines, because it is designed from start to finish. , more or less skeletal, and always visible. The bridge is the original skeleton and almost all of the Hublot Big Bang UNICO watches have open dials. This “naked body” action attracts the eye and offers many opportunities for sports enthusiasts to enjoy, and at the end of the day, it looks really cool. Just as the automotive world continues to inspire high-end sports watch designs, such as Hublot Big Bang UNICO, sport is a visible engine with all the glory of men.

One of my favorite things to do with the big bang unicorn is to watch the movement through the dial and back. Hublot cleverly designed the dial, which can be opened and very clear. Few wheel timers are difficult to read. The company understands the importance of high-contrast, clear dials that allow you to easily watch time. This task becomes more complicated when you have an open dial that can see the moving part – usually, your eyes will be distracted between the dial and the moving elements, which often leads to poor readability. I think, especially this “Halloween” limited edition Hublot Big Bang UNICO black and orange, you can see how important Hublot’s readability is.

The caliber HUB1242 is designed with secondary seconds dialing, 30 minutes of timekeeping, and on the dial date. The latter uses a stenciled digital ring that actually sees a complete digital ring almost behind the dial, with the current date indicator at 3 o’clock. Honestly, the date is one of the less recognizable aspects of dialing, but frankly, I appreciate it as the second time, because although I like to have dates on the dial, I don’t always want to see it. . Also, sometimes I decided not to set the date (lazy), I don’t like a super-conspicuous date window reminding me that I didn’t set it up correctly.

So, in general, I have a lot of praise for the HUB1242, which seems to be the consensus of those who want to see the Big Bang from my wrist. The latter approach is what I am looking forward to – especially when the people I know are not the traditional fans of Habrot who want to take a look. Every process is almost the same – they take what they think is a big, fancy watch in their hands, but spend a lot of time carefully looking at the movement of the dial and dial, and then say, “This is really good. “I sometimes like to answer like this: “Damn, that’s it.” Do you think I want a brand with inferior products? “No, I don’t like the brands of inferior products, and Hublot is definitely not one of them.” Or hate their design/activities/partners/etc… Today’s Hublot makes some very sturdy watches, and their movements stand with some of the best watches. Yes, they are expensive – welcome to “any luxury”.

The big bang of the unicorn is 45 mm wide (actually 45.5 mm), of course smaller than the “power of the king”, but it is not a big watch. Having said that, it is very comfortable to wear. One reason is that it is not designed to slide on your wrist. This special case and strap design creates a “sandwich” effect, and even if there is extra space on the side of the watch, the pressure to hold the watch position will be generated from the top and bottom of the wrist. Therefore, although the case is large, it is designed to fit the middle and small wrists (like my own wrist).

Hublot Big Bang UNICO looks cool without any effort. Well, if it’s cool and conservative for you, it’s not cool. If your definition of “cool” is more in line with the standard definition of “successful adventure”, then yes, the concept of the big bang is cool. The height of the architecture, but the symmetrical lines and the tapered style are modern, but also the classic proportion. What makes Hublot Big Bang UNICO’s case a little different is that it has a large round timer and a special stylus and pointer (of course, the dial of each dial is different).

411. This particular reference to ci.1190.lr. The ABO14 model comes from a black ceramic housing with at least two finishes from polishing to matt. With shell elements such as black screws. This special all-black dial is significant to me, but Hublot really helped promote the all-black dial, which became popular about 10 years ago. I never like pure black watches, but I appreciate a series of soft blacks that make the complex case look very interesting. That is my best thing.

So, to my delight, this special black and orange Hublot Big Bang UNICO uses a matte orange frost color as the outline of the hands and time markers, which makes everything beautiful and clear. Of course, there are SuperLumiNova lamps (black paint and numbers in the hand) so you can see some dark scenes. That is to say, a black illuminator (even if it emits green light) will never be as powerful as lume’s light-colored paint—perhaps because the dark color prevents some light absorption while charging the illuminator.

Hublot’s philosophy of “fusion” sounds real, because the Hublot Big Bang UNICO case is made from a range of materials. Not all of these are extravagant materials, but to be honest, some of the advanced polymer resins used in the middle casing have extremely high performance, increasing portability and durability. I think these materials also help to make the outer casing more shockproof. I would also like to mention the case screws that are not “aligned” as some of the more outspoken brand critics have hoped.

Please allow me to say here and now that I am completely sympathetic to watch enthusiasts who want the screws to be symmetrical and correctly aligned on the dial and case so that all the screw heads work in the same direction. When it comes to luxury watches, I am completely eager to be absolutely harmonious in everything. However, I did not specifically mention the need to align all the screw heads. This is especially a problem at the Big Bang bezel because the screws are screwed in and they stop at any position when tightened.

Hublot is doing this deliberately. The idea is to comment on the apparent industrial nature and structure of the product. These are the actual functional screws. Their random arrangement is the expression of this. Hublot hopes to do this and may maintain this philosophy for the foreseeable future. Perhaps the most relevant competitor is Audemars Piguet on the Royal Oak Watch.

Audemars Piguet can do this because the thing that looks like a screw head on the frame is actually a nut-like thing – screw it from below. Speaking of Audemars Piguet, they are Hublot’s “dead rival” – Hublot is another regular part of the watch enthusiast’s conversation. Frankly, I really like these two brands, and I think they can bring a lot of value. For me, this is not a world of royal-oak-overseas-big bang, because I think the two product families can live in harmony. When people say “The Big Bang is just a replica of the Royal Oak Offshore Case Design,” my answer is “Where is that?”

Obviously, the difference between the two products is greater than the similarities, and unlike Audemars Piguet, the whole case was created in a vacuum. This is an industry in which many brands learn from each other and learn from each other. As long as a product adopts an existing theme and pulls it in a different direction is creative, then I can accept it. I haven’t seen anyone confuse Audemars Piguet with Hublot. When this happens, I will accept a “plagiarism” complaint.

The most successful thing about Hublot’s integration into the Hublot Big Bang UNICO case is to push the tabs to release the end of the belt. Hublot’s case looks great on many different strap options, and most of their watches have two straps (some type of leather strap and a spare rubber strap). Unfortunately, I think they only provide a deployable hook – so in order to completely change the convenience of binding, you need another hook like this. Having said that, the process of changing the strap is still very easy, I think this is the core element of creating a stylish and diverse high-end watch. Taking out the tool of replacing the strap and playing with it, by today’s standards, it seems that it is very backward when enjoying high-end watches.

Speaking of the shoulder strap, the Big Bang UNICO is a black crocodile leather with an internal rubber-lined contrast suture strap. The rubber band is arguably the most comfortable, and the crocodile skin is sewn on the rubber to provide a beautiful appearance and a practical interior. The design of the snap ring helps to greatly extend the life of the crocodile, because it does not need to be too bent when it is worn or removed.

Needless to say, the big bang unicorn has a sapphire crystal on its outer casing. I like its setting about half a millimeter above the bezel, so that when you move the watch, you can see the small outline of the crystal. These small ranges of light reflections are subtle, but are at the heart of the visual design of the watch. There is also a sapphire crystal on the back of the case above the movement, which is 100 meters waterproof.

Looking at the Hublot Big Bang UNICO watch in the vacuum, it is hard to deny that it is a very good product. It’s not a luxury watch that everyone likes, but it doesn’t try to do it. In fact, one of the “forced marketing” methods behind the brand is that not every new product they release is intended to appeal to all fans of the brand. If one-tenth of the new Hublot watches are favored by them, fans of this brand may be very happy. I am not interested in the new wheel watch, I just ignored a knowledge, that is something that is more attractive to me.

Beyond the product vacuum, look at Hublot’s image as a brand, Hublot Big Bang UNICO is still a very impressive product. As a company, the personality that Hublot has developed over the past few years is a complex task that even I can’t always do. Many times, when I go to the event or product launch with Hublot, I will relax and let it take me where I want to go. When you are with Hublot, you never know what fun, weird, weird and provocative things will happen. For me, this is part of the charm, I like the idea that a company always tries new and completely different things, which also helps to define what modern luxury is, because many people don’t actually think of themselves. Looking at couples.

If I can say that there is only one really positive Hengbao (real) thing, that is the bigger high-end shopping community, the concept of Hengbao has solidified, a cool, luxury watch is the ultimate lifestyle product can not only tell People who you are, but you go to the type of things. If someone wants to make the watch a symbol of mass identity (good or bad), it’s Hublot – if their watch doesn’t look good to wear, it won’t happen.

No one has ever been so cheap, they are one of the brands that often face “price review” among many watch brands. “With high-end sports and attention to detail, they offer a money experience that I think is worthy of praise.” Of course, their watches will be more attractive at a lower price, but perhaps, I just said that because people Regrettably, the pricing of Hublot Big Bang UNICO is beyond the affordability of many people. This special Hublot Big Bang UNICO ref. 411.CI.1190.LR. The ABO14 is part of a limited edition of 100 pieces and retails for $22,300.
