HUBLOT launched a new Big Bang Integrated self-winding tourbillon watch this year. It is made of light, wear-resistant and strong aluminized carbon fiber (Texalium) material. The whole watch weighs only 68 grams. The price is about NT$3,924,000 (limited to 50 pieces).

HUBLOT released a very surprising watch this year. Everyone who held it in their hands immediately responded with a very surprised “Huh!”. Because its weight is too light, such an “integrated chain belt” watch with a self-winding tourbillon structure has an overall weight of only 68 grams, and it forms a strong visual contrast with its appearance. This watch also once again demonstrates the power of Hublot’s material fusion master.

HUBLOT Big Bang Integrated陀飛輪錶款，錶殼鍊帶採用的材質，是在碳纖維增強聚合物（CFRP）材料表面鍍上一層鋁金屬，再進行熱處理，使鋁與碳纖維反應形成一層鋁合金層，不僅具耐磨性，還有高強度和輕量化的特點。 — For the HUBLOT Big Bang Integrated tourbillon model, the material used for the case chain is to coat a layer of aluminum metal on the surface of the carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) material, and then conduct heat treatment to make the aluminum react with the carbon fiber to form a layer of aluminum alloy. It is wear-resistant, high-strength and lightweight.

HUBLOT Hublot’s new Big Bang Integrated integrated chain belt automatic tourbillon is so light because it is made of lightweight, wear-resistant and strong aluminized carbon fiber (Texalium) material. Its integrated chain belt part weighs only 26 grams, and the watch head part of the self-developed and assembled HUB6035 miniature automatic disc tourbillon movement weighs only 42 grams. And its case size reaches 43mm, and it has the complex function of self-winding tourbillon, which belongs to an eye-catching sports watch. However, the wearer can have the most comfortable wearing experience. This is exactly the goal pursued by many brands this year in pursuit of the “lightweight” trend.

Big Bang Integrated陀飛輪的機芯也非常有特色。它採用微型自動盤結構，自動盤位於上方十二點鐘，陀飛輪位於下方六點鐘位置，二者形成平衡和諧的佈局。 — The movement of the Big Bang Integrated Tourbillon is also very distinctive. It adopts a miniature automatic disc structure, the automatic disc is located at twelve o’clock above, and the tourbillon is located at six o’clock below, forming a balanced and harmonious layout.

The movement of the Hublot Big Bang Integrated Tourbillon is also very distinctive. It adopts a miniature automatic disc structure, the automatic disc is located at twelve o’clock above, and the tourbillon is located at six o’clock below, forming a balanced and harmonious layout. The movement is hollowed out to create the visual effect of a suspended tourbillon, and the dial uses transparent sapphire bridges to make the entire structure more transparent.

機芯底部的夾板，採用現代風格的格狀圖紋做為襯托，也讓鏤空機芯的外型更顯摩登現代。 — The plywood at the bottom of the movement is set off with a modern-style lattice pattern, which also makes the appearance of the hollow movement more modern and modern.

Hublot’s miniature automatic disc tourbillon watches used to be presented in colored sapphire crystal cases, and if the integrated sapphire crystal chain strap is added, the price will reach tens of millions of yuan. Therefore, this time, it is made of aluminized carbon fiber material, which not only greatly reduces the weight and makes it more comfortable to wear, but also makes its price a little more approachable.
