This summer is setting a lot of firsts in the world of watchmaking. For the first time in Hublot’s history, the brand is introducing an e-commerce exclusive in the United States where clients will be able to shop using select Cryptocurrencies with BitPay. The exclusive launch introduces the new Big Bang Unico Essential Grey in a limited edition of just 200 pieces, available on Hublot’s website.

“For the first time in the history of Hublot, we have imagined and designed the Big Bang Unico Essential Grey limited edition solely to be sold online. In doing so, we wanted to emphasize how important e-commerce has become in our thinking. All of our fans, collectors, and potential clients now have an equal chance to obtain this magnificent and rare new model,” notes Ricardo Guadalupe, the CEO of Hublot.

The sleek new grey timepiece is released just in time for summer, making quite the splash with its monochrome and satin-finished look. The iconic 42 mm case design has a satin finish that extends to the bezel, hands, and dial and is covered in a lightweight yet sophisticated titanium. At the heart of the Big Bang Unico Essential Grey beats the manufacture HUB1280 calibre, a column-wheel chronograph movement with a 72-hour power reserve.

And, of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Hublot masterpiece without the patented One Click system that offers the versatility of changing between the two straps: one grey lined rubber strap and one with a Swiss velcro fastening.

This limited edition is only available online at hublot.com and will not be offered in stores.
