Introduced in 2005, Hublot’s “Big Bang” model has become one of the most distinctive timepieces on the market, having won the “Best Design” award at the 2005 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. Known for its iconic “porthole” design, over the last two decades, the brand has released numerous models from time only to complicated, including chronographs, and tourbillons like the present example. Hublot has focused on innovative materials, and traditional Swiss watch manufacturing with a contemporary look.

Ceramic has become a popular element in watchmaking known for its durability and hardness. The present Hublot Big Bang tourbillon wristwatch is encased in black ceramic and is a unique piece. The watch features a large, bold case crafted in black ceramic that is highly scratch-resistant. The black ceramic bezel is fitted with six blackened screws, giving the watch a very powerful and masculine appeal. It is most likely this all ceramic construction that makes the watch unique. Further enhancing the overall black appearance, the watch is fitted with a matte black dial and numerals, and a glazed aperture allowing the viewer to admire the one minute tourbillon carriage.

Offered in exceptional condition, the watch is complete with its original certificate of authenticity and fitted presentation boxes. The present lot is being sold to benefit The One Drop Foundation, a non-profit striving to provide safe drinking water to vulnerable communities.
