After decades of dominance by Big Bang in extravagant angular cases of all shapes and sizes, in 2020 Hublot introduced its first Big Bang with a fully integrated metal bracelet. Known as Big Bang Integrated, the brand introduced 40mm cases with delicate dials and time and date indicators. Returning to its roots, the latest Big Bang Integrated subcollection debuts in a more compact 38mm case with closed dials, featuring six models in titanium, King Gold and ceramic.

The Big Bang Integrated is still a Big Bang in every way with its rugged 100m waterproof case, a rubber composite insert sandwiched between the middle part of the case and the bezel forming two branded lugs, a round bezel with six functional H-shaped screws resting on a barrel-shaped sandwich structure, a rubber pad on the crown and semi-skeletonized hour and minute hands and a central second hand with a counterweight in the shape of the letter H.

The case has a thickness of 9.4 mm and a diameter of 38 mm. Adhering to the principles of the Integrated family, which stipulate that the case and the bracelet must be integrated and made of the same material, the six new Big Bang Integrated Time Only models are available in a titanium case with a black or blue dial, in a King Gold case with a black or blue dial, in a dark blue ceramic case with a blue dial and Black Magic ceramic models with a black dial. As with other Integrated models, the finish highlights the dynamic architecture of the body with flat matte surfaces and polished bevels.

The integrated bracelet consists of a protruding central link surrounded by two end elements, and reflects the angles and finish of the case. It is attached to the wrist with a folding clasp that opens with buttons.
The dials of the Big Bang Integrated models are closed and made of soft ferromagnetic steel to protect the mechanism. Unlike the larger skeletonized models with stick-shaped markers, the closed dials feature a combination of superimposed Arabic numerals and stick-shaped indexes treated with luminescent material. At 3 o’clock there is a small date window with a dark background.

The new Hublot Big Bang Integrated Time Only 38 mm models are equipped with the MHUB1115 automatic winding caliber (basic Sellita SW300), which has a frequency of 4 Hz, an open tungsten rotor and a power reserve of 42 hours. Titanium models are available at a price of 13,600 euros, King Gold models – 49,100 euros, and ceramic models – 15,900 euros.
