TIMELESS CRAFTSMANSHIP MEETS CANADIAN HERITAGE WITH THE BIG BANG UNICO CARBON CANADA

 

September 20th, 2024—Hublot proudly announces the launch of the Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada, the first limited-edition timepiece crafted as an homage to the Great White North. This exclusive release represents a fusion of Hublot’s innovative craftsmanship with Canada’s rich heritage and national identity. Limited to just 50 pieces and exclusively available at Hublot Toronto boutique and Hublot Vancouver boutique in Canada.

 

This limited edition embodies Hublot’s Art of Fusion as it merges Swiss precision with the essence of Canada. Showcased in Hublot’s iconic collection, the Big Bang, the piece features a striking 42mm case accented with red and white hues, where white represents the land’s snowy landscapes and red symbolizes its autumn foliage. The Canadian maple leaf is at the heart of the limited edition, an enduring symbol of the nation’s vast natural landscape and deep connection to nature. Elegantly featured on the case back, the maple leaf, with its eleven points, signifies unity, peace, and the natural beauty that defines Canada. It is more than just an emblem; it is a living symbol of the nation’s identity, reflecting its history and aspirations for the future. This exclusive piece comes with two straps, Hublot’s signature black rubber strap and a black calf strap with red and white stitching, a nod to the colors of the Canadian flag.

UNICO’s technical and aesthetic signature

 

The Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada is powered by the renowned in-house Unico movement, a marvel of Swiss engineering known for its mechanical sophistication with unrivaled precision and reliability. The Unico movement’s technical and aesthetic signature features a column wheel and dual-clutch mechanism visible on the dial side, ensuring that the timepiece is as technically impressive as it is visually significant. With a 72-hour power reserve and the use of advanced materials like silicon for the escapement, the Unico movement represents Hublot’s commitment to innovation.

 

Enhancing the exclusivity of the Big Bang Unico Carbon Canada is its dedicated packaging: the Hublot Greenbox Case adorned with the iconic Canadian maple leaf. This innovative repository is a testament to Hublot's steadfast commitment to sustainability. Crafted entirely from oak, with 98 percent of its removable interior made from eco-friendly and recycled materials, the Greenbox is not just a case, but a reusable item designed to minimize environmental impact. The case is made primarily of massive, traceable wood, promoting short supply chains and responsible sourcing, appealing to the environmentally conscious consumer.
