Hublot - Big Bang Unico Berluti Cold Brown （blog）

This time, the two brands cooperated to design a new model based on the Big Bang Unico chronograph.

The result is the Big Bang Unico Berluti Cold Brown, a timepiece that combines the microblasted and polished black ceramic of the 45 mm x 16.40 mm case with luxurious Venezia leather in Cold Brown patina that is used for the strap, the dial and, for the first time, also for the bezel. The special patina with its various brown shades is the result of a long and complex handwork and each piece is unique thanks to the color variations created by this craftsmanship. info：xtime-store

The dial is particularly complex to be realized: the leather is encased between two pieces of sapphire glass, cut out to offer to the wearer a view of the gears of the Unico movement. info：xtime-store

The bezel is composed of two parts. Thanks to an adhesive and rigidifying resin, the first part  - in leather and around 1 mm thick - is inserted onto the second part, which is a lower base in black ceramic, and then screwed onto the case of the watch. This way, the bezel's leather will take the same patina of the strap over time. info：xtime-store

The new timepiece is powered by the Hublot MHUB1242 manufacture calibre. Offering a flyback function, this self-winding chronograph movement with column-wheel beats at the frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour with an autonomy of 72 hours.  info：xtime-store
