New Hublot Releases At LVMH Digital Watch Week 2021
Hublot has unveiled a series of new novelties at this year’s LVMH Digital Watch Week 2021, including the world’s first orange-tinted sapphire crystal watch, new ceramic shades, and two new Richard Orlinski editions.
At this year’s LVMH Digital Watch Week 2021, Hublot launched a series of novelties designed to showcase Hublot’s “First, Unique, and Different” philosophy. These novelties included the world’s first orange-tinted sapphire crystal watch in the new Big Bang Tourbillon Automatic Orange Sapphire watch, new shades of ceramic for the Big Bang Integral watch, and a ceramic makeover of the Big Bang created in collaboration with artist Richard Orlinski.
Hublot Big Bang Tourbillon Automatic Orange Sapphire Watch (Limited Edition)
Having worked with crystal sapphire since the release of the transparent Big Bang Unico Sapphire in 2016, Hublot has now created the world’s first through-tinted orange sapphire watch, following on from their success with clear, black, yellow, red, and blue-tinted sapphire designs.
Limited to 50 pieces, the Hublot Big Bang Tourbillon Automatic Orange Sapphire is powered by a new self-winding tourbillon movement and has seen a reinvention of the internal architecture, with the micro-rotor now visible on the dial side along with three sapphire bridges.
