Watch Review: Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium Ceramic 42mm Replica Watch

Hublot occupies two scarcely intersecting dimensions. First, there is the premiership footballers' and footballer-wives' Sellita-equipped expensive-looking watch. These have already been perfected to meet the rather straightforward expectations of their target audience. Then, there is the world of Hublot we are looking into today, the Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium Ceramic 42mm chronograph replica 441.NM.1170.RX, a more scaled-back presentation of Hublot’s highly capable in-house chronograph caliber Unico, Hublot takes watchmaking and its every aspect very seriously.

Skeleton Dial

The dial of the Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium Ceramic Watch replica is pretty busy at first. But you will get used to it very quickly. Basically it has two sub dials; the 60-minute chronograph at 3 o’clock and the continuous seconds at 9 o'clock. The date is hidden in the 3 o'clock sub dial. Since the design of the dial is skeleton-like, the entire date wheel is visible all around under the numbers and indexes. The main color of the dial is matte black with a rhodium plated upper layer. The indexes are satin finished and filled with luminescent. A mix of numbers and indexes were used. 6-8-10 and 12 are visible while 2 and 4 are cut-in by the sub dials. The rest of the hours are marked by indices.

42MM Case

It is interesting to see how the proportions of the 42mm variant has remained exactly the same as that of the larger model. It is extremely difficult to tell the two apart, when judging from the images. That said, the Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium Ceramic 42mm replica is a lot larger than the 42mm figure in its name.



Lug-to-lug, the case measures 52mm, The only truly thick (or, rather, tall) component is the black ceramic bezel that stands proud and tall on its titanium base. It adds depth at the best possible place: It creates the impression of looking into a weird capsule of fine mechanics. A distinct area in which the Hublot Big Bang 42mm watch replica justifies its price is the finishing of its case. Polished edges define the lugs and case profile, while the top surfaces of the lugs are polished. Every angle, surface, and connection between components is absolutely beautifully done. Hublot truly has perfected its triple-layer Big Bang case by now.

Double-clutch

This Hublot Big Bang chronograph replica operates with an entirely reworked oscillating double-clutch. I asked Hublot about this, since absolutely zero information was available online, and I was kindly forwarded to some of the eggheads inside the Nyon manufacture who explained, "This is a revolutionary new clutch system that has allowed us to make the chronograph more reliable and less energy-consuming. "

HUB1242 Unico Caliber

Hublot has greatly reworked the original HUB1242 Unico caliber (fitted to 45mm-wide versions), re-tailoring it for the 42mm version and renaming it to HUB1280. They left width at 30mm but shaved 1.3mm off its thickness to keep the case’s diameter-to-thickness proportions the same.

Price

The Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium Ceramic 42mm is priced at €18,600, a high price justified by a beautifully made case and a deeply impressive movement.
