Bringing a completely different perspective to the world of watches with its Art of Fusion motto, Hublot pays homage to today's contemporary and brave woman image with the Big Bang One Click Marc Ferrero series, designed together with one of the leading names in contemporary painting, Marc Ferrero.
Hublot, adopting a design approach that intertwines with art and sports, in fact with almost every element of life, is among the young-classic names of modern watchmaking. The brand's wide-spectrum definition of collaboration, from successful athletes to cult brands in their fields, keeps it in a unique position in the world of watches. Hublot, which transforms the Special and Limited Edition models into core product groups in a way and crowns this collaboration often with more than one model, continues to make its fans happy.
Today's guest of our review corner is an exclusive series designed per the brand's Hublot Loves Art approach. Models bearing the signature of painter Marc Ferrero, one of the leading representatives of modern painting, define strong women who shoulder many definitions such as wife, mother, friend, lover, businesswoman, or fashion icon.
Marc Ferrero is one of the few contemporary painters who says that painting can still explore new avenues and extend, through the power of imagination graphic adventures of the last century, which was the richest in terms of pictorial research. The work of Marc Ferrero and the movement of Storytelling Art continues to intrigue us because it has features that are not found anywhere else.
The Big Bang One Click Marc Ferrero collection, which was produced in cooperation with Hublot and Marc Ferrero and appeared in Hublot catalogs in 2019, consists of two versions prepared in red and blue themes. The model we chose for review from these two is the red-themed one.
The model uses the 39mm diameter Big Bang case. The case, which does not look very feminine with its 39mm x 12.55mm dimensions, successfully overcomes this situation with the help of red composite components added to the stainless steel body and 42 red spinels on the bezel. The case, which has sapphire crystals on both sides, gives the green light to sea or pool use with its water resistance value of 100 meters.
Although the red components and spinels are enough to distinguish the model from other versions, the main difference is in the dial part. The dial with a multi-colored illustration drawn by Marc Ferrero on a black lacquer background adds a Pop-Art look. Legibility is not the best feature of this dial. However, you can read the time via the hour/minute scale added on the outside of the dial.
The model houses the Caliber Hublot HUB1710 movement. The automatic movement offers a power reserve of up to 50 hours when fully wound.
The model, which is limited to only 50 pieces, comes on a perforated patterned red alligator strap. The stylish strap, which promises comfortable use even on hot summer days with its pink rubber lining, is secured by a Hublot signed folding clasp.
