Introduction

Famed for their entirely unique creations, Hublot has become a brand whose aggressive aesthetics have become synonymous with their impressive command of watchmaking and use of unusual materials. Offered here as a striking blend of modern design and technical mastery, the Hublot Big Bang Mecha-10 Black Magic ref. 414.CI.1123.RX is sleek black ceramic take on one of Hublot’s signature offerings, the Big Bang. Offering a refined, and stealthy look that’s both durable and lightweight, this timepiece is perfect for those who appreciate a watch that stands out without shouting. Boasting a blacked-out skeletonized dial that reveals the inner workings of its, also blacked-out, manual-wind 10-day power reserve cal. HUB1201 movement, the Big Bang Mecha-10 seamlessly blends avant garde design and horological engineering. Offering unique presence on the wrist without being overwhelming, the Big Bang Mecha-10 Black Magic’s ceramic 45mm case size sits confidently on the wrist thanks to its commanding silhouette, however, with the blacked-out color combination of its ceramic case, rubber strap and dial it wears smaller than one might assume from its dimensions. Perfectly capturing Hublot’s ethos of being a bold, innovative, and undeniably stylish watchmaker, the Big Bang Mecha-10 Black Magic is a statement piece that commands attention, as per Hublot’s raison d'etre.

THE DIAL
THE DIAL

Boasting a skeletonized dial with black bridges and a black movement underneath, the appropriately named Black Magic's display comes to life through its white inscriptions, red accents and silver dial furniture such as its applied hour markers and subdials.

THE CONSTRUCTION
THE CONSTRUCTION

Made of black ceramic and offered on a black rubber strap, the Big Bang's 45mm diameter construction wears smaller than one might assume from its measurements thanks to its stealthy appearance and light-weightedness on the wrist.
