Hublot has unveiled the Big Bang Reloaded at Watches and Wonders 2026, marking the latest evolution of one of the brand’s most recognizable collections. Building on the momentum of the Big Bang’s 20th anniversary celebrations in 2025, the new release demonstrates Hublot’s continued focus on innovation, materials expertise, and in-house movement development.

A Reinterpretation of the Big Bang Unico Platform

The Big Bang Reloaded reinterprets the established Big Bang Unico platform while placing greater emphasis on the architecture of the movement itself. According to Hublot CEO Julien Tornare, the redesigned collection highlights the Unico caliber as the visual centerpiece of the watch. The dial-side column wheel and integrated flyback chronograph have been made more prominent, allowing wearers to appreciate the technical complexity of the movement at a glance.

Five Models in a 44 mm Case

The collection is presented in a 44 mm case and launches in five distinct versions: Titanium Ceramic, All Black, Blue Ceramic, Dark Green Ceramic, and Magic Gold. Each model showcases materials that have become closely associated with Hublot’s identity, reflecting the brand’s long-standing commitment to combining unconventional materials with contemporary watchmaking.

The Reloaded series also represents the latest stage in the evolution of the Unico movement. Since its introduction in 2010, shortly after the opening of Hublot’s manufacture, the movement has undergone continuous refinement. Improvements to its architecture, proportions, and performance have helped establish it as a cornerstone of the company’s product lineup.

Design inspiration can be traced back to the original 2005 Big Bang, particularly through elements that recall the collection’s early aesthetic. However, the new models embrace a more modern presentation, emphasizing transparency, contrast, and mechanical visibility.

With the Big Bang Reloaded, Hublot continues to develop the collection that helped define the brand’s contemporary identity. The release highlights both the technical maturity of the Unico movement and the company’s ongoing pursuit of innovative design, reinforcing the Big Bang’s position as a central pillar of Hublot’s watchmaking portfolio.
