SPIRIT OF BIG BANG MOONPHASE

The moon shines in colors

The Spirit of Big Bang Moonphase conquers the play of colors with four new models in blue, violet, orange and pink. The trendy monochrome look is underlined by a perfectly color-coordinated strap, a quartz dial, a sandblasted moon phase display, hands, indexes and a bezel set with gemstones in the trendy colors.

In the mood for light and color this summer? Hublot combines the two elements and immerses the unique moonlight in the trend colors of the season - an indigo blue for denim lovers, a vibrant purple for a gaudy look, a vivid orange for a fresh kick and a bright pink that makes the world shine as if through rose-tinted glasses.

The hand-wound skeletonized HUB1170 movement, presented in the legendary 42 mm diameter tonneau case under sapphire crystal, is rounded off by a quartz dial, which is created by fusing silicon dioxide SiO2 and aluminium dioxide Al2O3 at high temperatures. The quartz is colored by the addition of "rare earths". With a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, a special technology and perfect mastery of the materials are required to cut this dial and give it a uniform shape.

The monochrome look has been perfected down to the smallest detail with the sandblasted, semi-transparent disc, which reveals the two moons alternately and shows itself in the same colors. A play of colors and contrasts that brings the complication visible at 6 o'clock even more into focus. The lunar cycle is depicted in a large, round window that completes one revolution in two lunar periods.

The two-hand model has a small seconds dial at 9 o'clock and a large date display on a double analog disk between 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock. To emphasize the geometry and depth of this timepiece, polished and satin-finished titanium or King Gold alternate with color accents on the Spirit of Big Bang Moonphase. Depending on the version, the bezel is set with 48 blue, orange or pink sapphires or amethysts. The strap adds the finishing touch to the overall look and picks up on the four color tones of the watch on an alligator leather backed with black natural rubber. The Spirit of Big Bang Moonphase is water-resistant to 100 meters and has a power reserve of 50 hours.

A watch mechanism and a complication that will immediately captivate any watch enthusiast.
