Hublot Big Bang UNICO Magic Sapphire Watch

The initial Hublot Big Bang Sapphire was all about celebrating the transparency of the sapphire crystal case, which extended into the dial, hands, and even strap. The same was true in reverse for the Sapphire All Black model. Now that Hublot is comfortable with people understanding the interesting appeal of a Big Bang watch made with a sapphire crystal case, they are able to make one that is a bit more legible and practical for daily wear. The Hublot Big Bang Magic Sapphire is your standard, easy to read and cool Hublot Big Bang with a black dial and strap, but with the transparent, virtually scratch-proof sapphire case.

With that said, this is still a limited edition given that the sapphire case is going to cost more than double most of your standard Hublot Big Bang 45 UNICO watches. Sapphire cases still cost more than things like metal or carbon fiber, but it is because of the lengthy and complicated machining process. You also need to get over the fact that enough people complain that it looks like plastic - in pictures, OK, but in reality, it really doesn't, in my opinion. If an Hublot is supposed to be about celebrating materials, modern machining technology, and also being boldly eye-catching, then this is indeed a success.

Hublot claims that the "magic" part of the name refers to the duality of the colors, namely the contrast between black and white. Contrast serves watches well because it isn't just about visual attention, but on dials it is important for legibility. As I said, for me, the Hublot Big Bang UNICO Magic Sapphire is a best-of-both-worlds type of product that offers practicality and a sense of "look at me" fun which is part of the Hublot wearing experience.https://www.repwatchesguy.is/
