Today, we'll be going over a Hublot Big Bang Black Magic, reference number 301.CI.1770.RX. Now this is one of three different models with this sort of case, but first I actually want to talk about this box here because this box is actually quite interesting. Hublot, I've had a kind of a difficulty figuring out where Hublot sort of fits within the entire all these different brands of watches. And it didn't really dawn on me until I opened up this box. Now looking at the box from even the underside, it has a very satiny velvety finish on the bottom. Something that a lot of people probably won't even notice. It has a very, very comfortable feel, and it has that grip so that it really doesn't move when you shift it, if you happen to shift it around on any surface. So it stays put. Also the porthole on the front matches the design of the bezel. We'll get into that in a moment for the watch itself, but notice how it is all done. It has that satin brush finishing on the front with all of those H-shaped screws, just like on the bezel. Very interesting, very, very designer feeling. And I believe fully now that Hublot is a designer brand, very much along the lines of say, Richard Mille, but a bit more affordable in that ballpark. So onto the watch itself, it actually comes in this very nice case with a little pillow. Rubbery outside, so that it conforms to any shape and it actually stays inside. And actually, let me show you what it looks like when it is actually inside its own box and you were to keep it. If you were to not actually wear this every day, and you kept it inside your box. That's sort of what it would look like. It looks very, very clean. Very, very nice presentation, all right? And so when it comes to the presentation, Hublot's got it. They make it so that you can actually see your own watch from within its case, it's a very nice touch and I really think a lot of other watch brands could learn from Hublot, all right? So anyway, onto the watch itself, this again is The Black Magic. This one is made with carbon fiber in its dial, all right? Take a close look at that, you can actually see all the weaving of that carbon fiber as it reflects the light, all right? Very, very interesting choice of patterning there. And I actually quite like it because I personally like to do photography myself and I just go nuts whenever I see a carbon fiber tripod because it's light and that is what this watch is. It's a very light timepiece that allows for- It's a sports watch, it has the chronograph pushers there, but it has that feel, that weight that you really need from a sports watch, all right? So the diameter of this case is 44 millimeters from finger to thumb, the entire case itself is made from microblasted black ceramic. If you notice and you take a look at the surfacing there, it's all diffused lighting, there's no high polish anywhere except say, for the screws and some of these struts here to basically mount the case on the front and the back but effectively it's all microblasted black ceramic. So you're not getting too much of the aesthetic wrist presence but you get the size in return, all right? So this bezel as I was going to go onto it, it has that microblasted black ceramic with these six H-shaped titanium screws. What makes this the black magic is that this is all black, all black ceramic. And also there's sort of like a hobnail type of texture along the outside, it gives it a very nice look as it has that sort of steel like look but it is again all ceramic. So what that means, when it's ceramic is that there's hardly anything that can actually scratch a ceramic case unless you have something harder like a high-grade diamond. But effectively, a ceramic case does not scratch. It will shatter but it will take a lot of effort to do so, all right? And all of this together, the case with the screws and the front, with the screws mounted into the back there, all lead to a 100 meter, or 10 atmosphere, or 330 feet below sea level water resistance. Pretty standard for just about any sort of sports watch or a luxury watch and as you can see the case back also has a glareproof Sapphire crystal. Much like that of the front, flat on the front, flat on the back. Same sort of treatment, and it allows you to see the movement on the inside. Now we'll be going over the movement a little bit later. Onto this dial now, again, all carbon fiber. It has the silvery- Well white gold actually, index markers with an outer second and minute track with Arabic numerals for every five iterations. So every five seconds, every five minutes, you have the Arabic numerals, so there's no mistake when you are setting the time on your watch. It has three sub-dials there. The nine o'clock is the small seconds. The three o'clock and the six o'clock, 30 minutes and 12 hour chronograph times respectively. Also know that there is a date aperture window at the 4:30 position. So it's a little bit off kilter but it's small enough that you can actually let it go actually, all right? Hublot logo at the very top with the letter formed logo as the counterweight for that chrono-hand, center mounted right there, all right? And when it comes to the functions, really simple, the first position is actually- Well, it doesn't require any screwing. So you're already at the first position. You don't need to unwind the crown to wind the watch, all right? Pull out to the second position technically, and you can adjust the date. It's a very short throw, very sensitive. It feels less than a quarter turn to actually advance the date. So much faster than that of a Rolex Datejust which takes exactly a quarter turn to advance the date by one. This one feels less than that. It's like close to an eighth of a turn, it's insanely fast, very easy, all right? So if you find yourself say on the 29th of February, you can advance it to the 1st of March very easily. All right, pull the crown out to the final position. It hacks that seconds hand as you can see it's no longer moving, all right? And you can actually move the minute hand freely to set the time as you wish for precise timekeeping, all right? Press the crown all the way back in to ensure that waterproofness. Again, only a hundred meters because very likely, there's no actually screw-in mechanic for this crown. So there's probably some inner gaskets that allow for that waterproofness, all right? Now what makes all of this work- Oh yeah, also the coronagraph works just as you would expect. Press the top button to allow that center mounted chronograph hand to move at one second per second. Press it again to stop it, press the bottom to reset it and all of the sub-dials as well. Except the small seconds, of course, that one just keeps going, and it will stop only when you pull the crown out all the way, all right? So what allows all of this to work? It's the Hublot's in house movement, the HUB4100 self winding chronograph movement which is a diameter of 30 millimeters, has 25 jewels with the power reserve of 42 hours. Beats out a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour or 4 hertz, it allows for that rapid setting of the date, running of the coronagraph hand in the center with the hours, minutes, and these offsets, small seconds hand at the nine o'clock, all right? Also, it has a bi-directional winding rotor on the interior. So you can effectively wind the watch. Simply, wind the watch fully using the crown, and your natural wrist movements. With this watch on your wrist, it will keep it wound up to that full 42 hour power reserve and continue on from there, all right? Okay. And so what keeps all of this together is effectively the strap here. It's a black lined rubber strap here, very smooth on the outside. It has these tiny micro channels going laterally across the strap with even those very, very precisely placed little notches just for the clasp here. The clasp is also made with microblasted black ceramic with black plated stainless steel. It's also the deployment buckle clasp. So you can't actually pull it open. You actually have to use these two buttons here to just trigger it and it opens up very easily. The way the clasp is designed, very much like the Hublot logo, as you can see it has the H with the bridge across, very designer-like, I love it! All right? And the way that this works is that you can effectively size this to just about any wrist within the average range. Anyone who can wear a 44 comfortably, all right? So allowing for on the fly adjustments is certainly a good point for any sort of rubber strap or any sort of strap really that allows for those little notches to be moved forward and backward depending on your wrist. Now while we're here, we can try it on the wrist and you can see how it looks and I can give you some more thoughts on how it feels. Right, so I just took a guess as to the size of this and I'll have to wear this a little bit higher on my wrist, all right? But on my wrist 7.25 to 7.5 inches in circumference. I can definitely feel that there's a little bit of bowing out on the edges here. As you can see, there's some space underneath the lugs here. And I'm not sure that that's necessarily a bad thing, Even though, a lot of people would prefer to have a snug fit, they want their watch fitting tightly. And certainly if you have a larger wrist, then that won't be any problem. But if you have an average sized wrist like mine, there's actually a good sense of breathe-ability here. So as a sports watch, that's very good. If I'm going to go jogging or going to exercise, this is definitely a good thing. Having that little bit of extra room there to allow the wrist to breathe. So I'm not basically stuck with a pool of sweat just dripping down through the strap and that just sounds kind of gross and honestly, I wouldn't like that. I don't think you'd like that either, all right? On the wrist though, when it comes to framing. Actually, it says it's a 44 millimeter and I'm inclined to believe it that it certainly feels like a 44 but it doesn't seem as much a 44 or maybe this is truly a 44, whereas other models that have that 44 millimeter diameter actually tend to wear a bit larger. The lugs here actually don't really take up that much extra space. So I do get a relatively good framing. A better framing really than I would say with a 40 millimeter Rolex because their lugs tend to be a little bit longer. I get a less bracelet, less strap room. So it's not very good framing for me, on my wrist, maybe good on your wrist. And certainly if you have a larger wrist, you'll get even better framing with the straps here. But really, it's more about this case. This is a designer brand, looking at how all of the screws are set in there precisely. Well, not perfectly. You can't get them perfectly. It's very difficult to do so. But the placement of them, the way that they're spaced out, very tasteful and obviously again, designer feel. And when it comes to weight, I can definitely feel more of it up here on top of my wrist. There's not so much of a counterbalance because this is a rubber strap. Obviously lighter than that of say carbon fiber and microblasted black ceramic. So that being said, as a sports watch this is incredibly light. Compared to any sort of chronograph, say your Seamaster, Speedmaster, or even a Daytona, this takes the cake when it comes to lightwear, a very, very comfortable fit. So they certainly got the job done. They did it right. All right? So enough of what I think. What do you think about this watch? Let us know down in the comments below.

Turning out the lights, you can actually see all the index markers do have that applied luminescence. Very, very thick luminescence on the minute and hour hands there, all right? With all of the sub-dials, their hands are also glowing very nicely in the dark, all right? So you can be certain that this will work very well in any low light situation. All right.
