Hublot New Product

Hublot, the creator of art of fusion, unveiled a lot of new products at LVMH Watch Week 2021, which started yesterday at 5pm Korean time. Let’s take a look at some of Hublot’s new faces, one by one.

This is the latest installment in the MP series, the pinnacle of Hublot watchmaking. From 2018 to now, the MP-11, which has been dressed in sapphire crystal, 3D carbon, king gold, and red ceramic one after another, is this time adorned with Magic Gold and Blue Sapphire. Magic Gold, a mixture of gold and boron carbide, is a gold alloy developed and patented by replica Hublot. It has the advantage of being strong against scratches compared to ordinary gold, which is the number of days that it can be scratched just by rubbing it. The surface hardness of Magic Gold is about 1,000 Vickers, which is more than double that of ordinary 18K gold, which is only 400 Vickers. Magic gold is elegant and luxurious, while blue sapphire is stimulating and cheerful. Having dyed transparent sapphire crystals in various colors, Hublot displayed their talents once again. It is astonishing that sapphire crystals, which are so hard and very difficult to machine due to their brittleness, can be handled so far. Regardless of the material, the case diameter is 45 mm and the thickness is 14.4 mm. Water resistance is 30m. Unlike the blue sapphire model in which the case, bezel and case back are made of blue sapphire, the Magic Gold model has the case and bezel made of magic gold and the case back made of ceramic.
The front view of the MP-11 obeys the Big Bang law. Six H-shaped screws coated with black titanium are also a symbol of the Big Bang. However, if you turn it sideways, you can see that the bezel and the front sapphire crystal glass protrude to stack multiple barrels in a cylindrical shape. It is a way to install an in-house movement designed with a unique structure, and a point to show that the MP-11 is a member of the Masterpiece series.
The 270-piece hand-wound caliber HUB9011 achieves a long power reserve of up to 14 days, thanks to the powerful force emanating from 7 barrels. In order to wind, you need to connect a separate tool provided by Hublot to the crown and turn it. A power reserve indicator in the form of a roller placed on the extension of the barrel indicates the remaining power. A helical worm gear was used to transmit the power generated from the barrel to the horizontally installed gear train and dial parts. The plates and bridges are designed to be skeletonized so that the inside can be seen clearly. It features a silicone lever escapement, and the ruthenium balance wheel pulls out to the front so you can enjoy the pleasure of a mechanical watch while wearing your replica watches. The frequency per hour is 28,800 vph (4 Hz).
Considering the overall tone, the magic gold model has a black rubber strap, and the blue sapphire model has a blue rubber strap. Instead, the black folding buckles made of titanium and ceramic are identical. Big Bang MP-11 Magic Gold and Blue Sapphire are limited to 50 each.
Another color has been added to the palette in Hublot’s hands. After conquering red and blue, then yellow and green, Hublot came out with a provocative orange this time around. It is said to be the first time a watch case has been made from orange sapphire crystal. The transparent tinted sapphire case, painted orange with titanium and chrome, is meticulously polished by the Ultrasonic CNC machine at Hublot Manufacture. The case diameter is 45mm and the thickness is 15.3mm, which is quite thick. Water resistance is 30m.
Hublot has developed a new engine to match the unprecedented case. The self-winding caliber MHUB6035 has 243 parts and a frequency of 21,600 vph (3 Hz) per hour. The power reserve is rather long at 3 days. Caliber MHUB6035 introduced a self-winding mechanism to differentiate it from the traditional hand-wound tourbillon movement. Traces of that can be seen in the microrotor placed at the 12 o’clock position on the dial. The skeletonized 22K white gold micro-rotor is perfectly symmetrical with the tourbillon, which rotates once a minute on the opposite side.
The theme of transparency continues with the movement. For the first time as a brand, Hublot made the barrel bridge, automatic bridge, and tourbillon bridge with sapphire crystal so that parts are not covered, so that the case and even the movement are transparent.
A titanium folding buckle is paired with a rubber strap that is uniform in orange. As with other BIGBANG series, the one-click system allows users to easily and freely remove and attach. The Big Bang Tourbillon Automatic Orange Sapphire is limited to 50 pieces.
