Looking as mesmerizing as it does, Hublot’s newest watch is much more than a hypnotic mix of colors. The Big Bang Unico High Jewelry Rainbow represents the Swiss watchmaker’s unique way of saying that magic is real and that their artisans are probably the ultimate magicians when it comes to combining the art of jewelry-making with fine watchmaking.
Decorated with a rainbow of brightly colored gemstones on a backdrop of 18ct pink gold, the new Big Bang Unico High Jewelry Rainbow is powered by the excellent UNICO manufacture HUB1242 chronograph flyback mechanism, with a double-clutch mechanism included.
But it’s that spectacular rainbow effect that will have any of us drooling uncontrollably. Hublot used exactly 290 precious and fine gemstones to create a vibrant spectrum around the dial, complementing the iconic movement. But that’s not all.
This high jewellery timekeeping wonder is complemented by an elegant alligator and natural leather strap and it also benefits from the addition of a cool buckle clasp, that’s set with 30 other gemstones.
As you can imagine, expertise and dexterity are required to obtain this harmonious gradation. Scarlet blends into fuchsia, there is also a bit Klein blue, turquoise, green, vibrant yellow, warm orange, and anything in between. This kind of magic is not just for anyone to conjure.
The gemstones seem to blend into one another, in a perfect connection. Add in that pink gold shade, and you realize that the Big Bang Unico High Jewelry Rainbow is much more than a fashion statement; it’s a testament to fine craftsmanship and purity.
The rainbow stretches beautifully across the 45-mm case, while no less than one hundred rubies, pink sapphires, amethysts, blue sapphires, blue topazes, tsavorites, and yellow and orange sapphires, work alongside to create a unique chromatic look with Psychedelic vibes.
Furthermore, 112 baguette-cut gemstones were chosen to decorate the bezel, complementing the subtle shades of the 48 gemstones set on the dial and the indexes. Mind blowing, isn’t it?
