Hublot Big Bang Reloaded: mastery from movement to material

Building on the Big Bang’s 20th anniversary, Hublot presents the Big Bang Reloaded, an evolution of the openworked Big Bang Unico. The 44mm collection is launched in five executions, each crafted from the materials that built Hublot, several of which celebrate key anniversaries in 2026.

n this reloaded vision, the Unico movement takes centre stage: colour, contrast and architecture amplify the chronograph’s unique construction, with the dial-side column wheel and integrated flyback designed to be more visible than ever.

“Hublot introduced the Big Bang Original Unico earlier this year, inspired by the 2005 original model with a closed dial, yet reimagined and powered from now on by the Unico manufacture calibre. That was a turning point: our in-house movement now drives the entire Big Bang collection. The next step for us was clear: to re-engineer the openworked Big Bang Unico itself, now more expressive and rebuilt from the inside out”, said Julien Tornare, CEO of Hublot.

The colour-highlighted 6 o’clock column wheel and the oscillating clutch at 8 o’clock draw attention to the Manufacture Hublot mechanism protected by five patents. The chronograph counter at 3 o’clock is redesigned, the date repositioned between 4 and 5 o’clock, and the flyback function reinforced with subtle colour details. A new chronograph hand marks precision in action. On the back, contrast plays across a new openworked rotor featuring a cut-out H engraved with the inscription “Hublot. Design. Manufacture. Nyon”, along with the balance, barrel and going train.

The 44mm case features amplified architecture with a two-part bezel, creating sharper contrasts and enabling dynamic interaction between materials and finishes. The multilayer dial plays with textures and surfaces, giving depth and a technical edge.

Price range: CHF 19,900–36,900
