Hublot introduces a new iteration of white for the widely popular Big Bang Sang Bleu II

A complex and elusive timepiece, the Hublot Big Bang Sang Bleu has held a very special place in the hearts of watch lovers across the globe. From its geometrically striking aesthetics created by Maxime Plescia-Büchi and its technical expertise, the collection demands a cult following. This time around with the new iteration in white, the tattoo artist Maxime Plescia-Büchi reminds us that white is the starting point of all creations: a neutral basis that highlights the artist’s mastering of shape and form. It is here that he creates his geometry in three dimensions, between relief and depth, and where each detail is signed by a master stroke of the talented grapho-typo-tatoo- genius.

Crafted in 45mm Titanium white and King Gold case featuring the signature hexagonal bezel while also recognising the spirit of squaring the circle, which brought to life the first watch born from collaboration between Hublot and Sang Bleu. With the Sang Bleu II, the timepiece and the artist behind it invites invites hexagons, rhombuses and triangles to play with the round form in three-dimensions. The addition of the chronograph function strengthens the watch’s original way of telling the time without altering its readability.

The marvellous case of the watch encases the UNICO manufacture HUB1240 automatic chronograph movement that can be viewed through the skeleton dial and open caseback.

Available on two limited versions; the Titanium White (limited to just 200 pieces) and the King Gold White (limited to just 100 pieces), the new white iteration of the Hublot Big Bang Sang Bleu II deserves a place on every watch lovers wrist.
