The Hublot Big Bang Original was launched in 2005 and quickly became an icon, marking the bold revival of the... brand under CEO Jean Claude Biver. It introduced Hublot’s now signature concept of “The Art of Fusion,” combining materials like ceramic, rubber, steel, and gold in a single timepiece. At the core of the Big Bang Original is the HUB4100 automatic chronograph movement, based on the Valjoux 7750, offering 42 hours of power reserve, a date function, and a tri-compax chronograph layout with subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock. The case typically measures 44mm and features a modular construction with exposed screws, a composite resin bezel lug, and an integrated rubber strap. The Big Bang Original set the tone for Hublot’s modern era and remains one of the brand’s most recognizable and influential models in Swiss contemporary watchmaking. Read more Show less
