With distinctive Hublot touches, the new Spirit of Big Bang Tourbillon Carbon White is an unashamedly contemporary timepiece.
There’s no doubt that Hublot is known for its often-daring watch designs. However, beyond the eye-catching aesthetics of its timepieces beats a consistency in elegance and excellence that resonates through more subtle yet equally distinctive elements.
So it is with the Spirit of Big Bang Tourbillon Carbon White, a timepiece that’s unique and yet resolutely Hublot. Despite its futuristic design, it still combines the distinctive codes of the brand, including six H-shaped titanium screws, a “sandwich” case construction, an HUB6020 skeleton tourbillon manufacture movement custom-designed for its tonneau case, and strap interchangeability thanks to its patented One-Click system.

In the seven years since its launch in 2014, the singular and distinctive Spirit of Big Bang has been cultivating its differences whilst incorporating these signature Hublot codes, and with the Spirit of Big Bang Tourbillon 5-day Power Reserve Carbon White, Hublot combines black with white, proving opposites attract.

The new watch’s 42-mm case, case back, and bezel are crafted from carbon fibre featuring white composite inclusions formed from glass microfibres created as a non-woven fabric that’s co-impregnated with the carbon fibres using tinted epoxy resin. Released in a limited edition of 100 pieces, the new Spirit of Big Bang Tourbillon plays with contrasts and transparency thanks to both a sapphire case back and dial that reveals the ultra-aesthetic architecture of the movement within.

A skeleton tourbillon specially designed to sit within the tonneau case of the Spirit of Big Bang, the HUB6020 boasts a power reserve of 115 hours, hand-wound, with a five-day indicator set at 8 o’clock. At 6 o’clock, the tourbillon cage completes one rotation per minute, while off-centre hours and minutes can be read at 3 o’clock, completing the perfect balance between form and function.
