Time for a limited edition specially
designed for Russia – cutting-edge watchmaking meets the art of tattooing once
again as Sang Bleu and Hublot join forces to create the Big Bang One Click Sang
Bleu Steel Turquoise.
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, and Maxime Plescia-Büchi, founder of Sang
Bleu, held a sumptuous gala in Moscow to jointly unveil a special edition of
the Hublot Big Bang Sang Bleu watch – this exclusive new ladies’ model will
only be available in Russia, in a limited edition of 50 pieces.
In the same vein as all the earlier timepieces which were the fruit of the
collaboration between Hublot and Sang Bleu, this model effortlessly displays
the symbolism of Maxime Plescia-Büchi’s creations for Sang Bleu. This piece
offers a reinterpretation of the ancestral art of tattooing, bringing it into
an avant-garde culture. Its turquoise blue dial is framed with a hexagonal
bezel set with 48 diamonds while the interwoven geometric shapes extend from
the dial and along the 39 mm diameter steel case.
Its three hands make way for three openworked discs displaying the hours,
minutes, and seconds, accented by a touch of Super-LumiNova®. These are powered
by the HUB1710 self-winding manufacture movement beating at 28,800 vibrations
per hour and offering a generous power reserve of 50 hours.
The Big Bang One Click Sang Bleu Steel Turquoise is paired with a turquoise
blue strap to match its dial, which also features lines traced by Maxime
Plescia-Büchi. Cut from calfskin leather from the prestigious Italian leather
experts, Schedoni, and rubber-lined for greater comfort on the wrist, the strap
features the One Click system, a patented attachment system that makes it easy
to make bold style statements by simplifying strap changes.
The 50 timepieces included in this limited edition are presented in an original
gift box which features the geometric shapes characteristic of Sang Bleu and
which is fully lined with leather.
Hublot is once again reaffirming its “Art of Fusion” by combining its
perfect mastery of watchmaking and materials with the artistic modern culture
of tattooing espoused by Sang Bleu!
“Thanks to its colour and its
brilliance, this feminine interpretation of the work of Maxime Plescia-Büchi
for Hublot gives this special edition a touch of originality and uniqueness which
make it a perfect match for the market for which it was designed… Russia.” -Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO Hublot
