Hublot Big Bang (PG)  5 Comments

Published Wednesday, November 15, 2006 by Harry SK Tan |

 


In the world of marketing, controversy is often coveted as a means of drawing attention. Some have criticised this about Hublot's Big Bang and how it resembles another marque's iconic model. I have tracked the debate on this and I have learnt a lot - about how Hublot's original design actually predates the other marque etc.
While there are unmistakeable similarities, I think they are unlikely to be mistaken for each other on the wrist. E.g. what I like about the Big Bang is the clean dial without chopped numbers - BRAVO!

Also, even though its a big watch its proportions to me are far more easier to the eye - particularly the thickness.

It has become Hublot's best seller and hardly ever seen in the windows of the Authorised Dealers. I grasped at the chance to photograph this watch recently when it arrived at the local dealers - to ascertain the quality and overall looks. The photomontage will be released soon, in the mean time, here is a teaser cover image (click on it to see a bigger copy).
