Hublot Big Bang Unico Sapphire Usain Bolt is a flyback column-wheel chronograph, dedicated to and bearing the name of “lightning bolt” Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world.Hublot was the first luxury brand that dared to combine a luxurious gold watch with a “mundane” rubber strap back in 1980, and the brand has surprised the watch world again and again since then with creative combinations of cutting-edge materials representing avant-garde style at its best.

Magic Gold, an 18-karat scratch-resistant gold and ceramic alloy; King Gold, another proprietary gold alloy with a unique red shimmer; and even sapphire crystal mixed with composite resin, which is extremely hard to work with, but offers the noble intention of revealing the inner beauty of a mechanical movement from all angles by providing total transparency.
The unique Hublot Big Bang Unico Sapphire Usain Bolt developed for Only Watch 2017 honors the extraordinary sprinter with some intriguing details: the chronograph’s second hand is shaped like a lightning bolt in reference to Bolt’s nickname, while a silhouette of the man himself in his typical victory pose decorates the small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock.These elements add even more zest to an extremely detailed dial that is partially skeletonized in order to reveal the sheer beauty of the mechanical inner workings. I have always admired the fully visible date disk, likewise reduced to its bare essentials here. Moving beneath the hour markers, it adds depth to the already highly complex yellow gold-plated dial that complements the chronograph pushers, crown, and big and small screws on this very recognizable Big Bang case.
Hublot Big Bang Unico Sapphire Usain Bolt comes with two interchangeable straps, one lined transparent and black rubber strap and one yellow gold-colored calfskin strap embossed with the outline of a Jamaican flag.
