- Greetings, I'm Tim of Govberg and welcome to the world of Hublot. Today, I'll be your guide to the features of the Hublot Spirit of Big Bang Moonphase Titanium. 42 millimeters in titanium, this watch combines an automatic Swiss caliber grand date, romantic Moonphase. A double sapphire dial, more on that in a moment. With Hublot's art of fusion concept blending the titanium with the natural vulcanized rubber of its supple strap. You can see the watch, sapphire titanium rubber and composite case inserts has a distinctive tunnel shape that beautifully wraps itself around the wrist. You can see how it actually arks. It has real camber to its case profile to make it a better ergonomic match for wrists of all size. Now, the watch starts at its periphery with a deploying clasp trigger actuated for utmost security. Looping with the opposite side of the strap, it provides extra insurance against droppage while donning or removing at bedside. With twin trigger it can't accidentally pop open and thanks to the Hublot H patten chastity design, which tucks the strap underneath the body of the clasp, there's no need for awkward strap minder loops on the remainder of the band to take up any excess slack.
Now you can see that the steel clasp is matched by a sharply defined natural vulcanized rubber strap. The definition comes by means of the longitudinal striations and the strong center spline. As with every Hublot since the first, the watch embodies innovation. But, the rubber strap is a very close link to the original Hublot concept, which in 1980 stunned the world by pairing exotic metal gold with a rubber strap. The first time that had ever been done. It informs the velocity of this spirit of big bang, which blends high tech material, titanium, with natural vulcanized rubber. The form of the rubber and the lugs flowing into one seamless transition as the strap gives way to case, you can see the Hublot titanium H pattern bolts inset on the planks as well as the bezel.
Also note the nuance of the finish, as the titanium, exceptionally light on the wrist, is also attractive via the brushed and polished contrast along the lug tops and the case band. You'll note that the bezel of the spirit of big bang is relieved creating different focal planes and you'll note a combination of blasted media finish and high polish. It gives way to two sapphires, not one but two. There's the primary sapphire, which covers the dial and then there's the secondary sapphire which serves as the mounting point for the individual displays, as well as the Hublot marquee at three o'clock. Now the watch features luminescence such that you can view it in low light or no light. But, it also features transparency, so that you can see everything within and without. Now the romantic Moonphase, as you can see underneath a slightly opaque sapphire at six o'clock, provides that elements of perhaps artistic romance and at the same time you have practicality of the grand double digit date. Two separate mobile discs for the days of the month.
On the opposite side, you can see the heart and soul of the automatic winding Hublot caliber 1770 with a 50 hour power reserve. It beats away at 28,800 abrasions per hour. It features both hacking seconds, so you can stop the seconds and synchronize your watch to a known accurate reference time and a quick set function for the date. Moreover, this exclusive caliber is protected down to 100 meters, thanks to robust case seals and a screwed down crown for utmost security. So, although this watch is perhaps one of the most romantic and artistic renditions of the Hublot art of fusion concept, nevertheless, it is also one of the most rugged, thanks to its lightweight water resistant strap and robust 100 meter test depth, which per Hublot makes it suitable for all aquatic activities short of professional diving. The timepiece features a discrete pusher adjuster on the flank for adjusting the Moonphase and all other setting, as well date setting functions are performed through the crown. You can see this exceptional, versatile and singular tunnel shaped Hublot spirit of big bang Moonphase titanium and the entire collection of Hublot premium timepieces on our website Govbergwatches.com.
It's pretty silly to call this a ripoff design. Since watches were invented, houses have riffed on each others designs. This is true not just of watchmaking, but of art, architecture, music, cuisine and pretty much any form of high craft.
Octagonal cases were around long before Genta sketched the Royal Oak. Richard Mille's movements are sublime (but outrageously overpriced), but their cases are awfully designed. I don't fault Hublot at all for spotting the opportunity to create an improved and more sculptural form for an edgy tonneau case. The riff moves the industry forward. There is little innovation in this case format these days....Christopher Claret has one, as does Cyrus.
The Franck Muller/Parmigiani/Cvstos cases are more classic in design and are not comparable. In summary, the industry is better off, not worse off, with this kind of riff innovation.
RM is expensive because there goes like 5 years of tests and engineering into every model. And almost every part of every watch is custom made specifically for it. There are only so many shapes and Franck Muller was the first who introduced this type of case (to my knowledge, or at least made it iconic). Tho you can't mistake Hublot fo RM, they are absolutely different, despite slightly similar shape. Cvstos designer comes from FM, so that's a no surprise. Every round dial is ripping off every other round dial? Never hear that. Real rip off is what China does to the industry.
Should be called “Spirit of Richard Mille.”
hahaha.... looks good though. Same with the nautilus being a ripoff of the royal oak. Allthough being designed by the same guy, but noone talks about that.
jason starek to be honest, to my taste, it looks much better than the RM I have the opportunity to use.
People should be judging the nautilus in the same way then since it was inspired by the royal oak and design drawn in 5 minutes by GG
Can I have machine kinetick watch and calp watch watch like this please
rip off design!!
