Hublot injects a fresh burst of colour and creativity into its iconic Big Bang lineup with the Big Bang One Click Joyful collection, a bold, expressive series that reimagines the brand’s signature design in vibrant 33mm formats. Comprising five distinct models, this collection masterfully blends high-watchmaking finesse with a playful aesthetic, showcasing Hublot’s enduring commitment to innovation through its celebrated “Art of Fusion” philosophy.
A Heritage of Disruption
Since its founding in 1980, Hublot has redefined the codes of luxury watchmaking. The brand’s original pairing of gold cases with rubber straps was a provocative move that laid the groundwork for its now-iconic design language. This fearless spirit came to a head in 2005 with the debut of the Big Bang, a watch that won the Best Design award at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève and became a pillar of 21st-century horology.
Today, that same bold DNA lives on in the Big Bang One Click Joyful collection, which distils the essence of the original Big Bang into a compact, gemstone-studded silhouette designed for maximum versatility and visual impact.
A Joyful Explosion of Colour
The Joyful collection is a celebration of individuality and chromatic harmony. Five models are offered, each defined by a vivid colour scheme that flows from gemstone-set bezels to matching rubber straps. These are not just splashes of colour, they’re carefully curated gemstones selected for their brilliance, hue, and emotional resonance:
- Red Spinels (Ref. 485.SR.2210.RX.1213)
- Orange Sapphires (Ref. 485.SO.2210.RX.1206)
- Pink Sapphires (Ref. 485.SP.2210.RX.1233)
- Blue Topaz (Ref. 485.SL.2210.RX.1207)
- Green Tsavorites (Ref. 485.SG.2210.RX.1222)
Each polished stainless steel bezel is adorned with 36 precisely matched gemstones, expertly cut and individually set to create a dazzling frame that elevates the white lacquered dial beneath.
Refined Wearability Meets Practical Design
Sized at 33mm, the Joyful models strike a delicate balance between elegance and everyday wear. The case retains the Big Bang’s iconic silhouette, complete with exposed screws and layered construction, but is refined for smaller wrists and broader appeal.
The dials are crisp and clean, marked by a mix of applied Arabic numerals and stick indices that ensure legibility, while the sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating enhances visibility in all lighting conditions. Water resistance up to 100 meters adds further versatility, allowing the watch to handle everything from daily wear to poolside lounging.
Inside, the HUB1120 automatic movement powers the collection, delivering a reliable 40-hour power reserve and supporting hours, minutes, seconds, and a practical date function at 3 o’clock.
The One Click Advantage
A standout feature is Hublot’s One Click strap-change system—a patented mechanism that allows for effortless strap swaps without tools. Each model comes with two rubber straps: one white with a coloured insert matching the bezel stones, and another in full gemstone colour for a bolder look. This intuitive system makes personalisation both fun and functional.
