It’s now the primary week of June 2025, and oddly sufficient, for the UK no less than, we’ve had a reasonably spectacular spring to date, so I’m certain I’m not alone in already noticing a tan line the place my watch normally sits. This could lead us into desirous to discover a “summer season watch” – one thing mild, on rubber, perhaps with a splash of color that appears nice towards our sun-kissed pores and skin. Nicely, you’ll be able to depend on Hublot to have simply the look ahead to the job, introducing their new Massive Bang Unico Summer time 2025.

As is now custom, Hublot holds a summer season celebration yearly, and has completed so for the previous eight years. Not solely have they got an enormous occasion with the who’s who of the Hublot neighborhood in attendance, however in addition they take the chance to launch a summer-themed watch. Earlier highlights embrace watches similar to 2022’s lairy Summer time Purple and a Tiffany blue mannequin in 2021 – each of which, compared to this 12 months’s providing, virtually look muted and even barely understated.

2025’s summer season watch returns within the type of the Massive Bang Unico Chronograph, this time crafted from ceramic, however in a vibrant colourway that mixes a sky blue ceramic bezel with a vibrant orange ceramic case and darkish blue particulars, sandwiching a white inside core. The ceramic is micro-blasted throughout, giving the watch a playful, virtually toy-like end, particularly in these colors. The specs of the usual Massive Bang Unico stay, with the case measuring 42mm in diameter and 14.5mm thick. Due to the titanium crown and chrono pushers, and ceramic screw down case again, it provides 100 meters of water resistance, which is especially useful for a chronograph that may probably spend most of its time in or across the pool.

The summer season vibes color scheme continues all through the skeletonised dial, that includes flashes of case-matching blue and orange, with darker blue pigments utilized to the motion. The result’s a hanging and sometimes busy dial, which we’ve come to like on the Massive Bang. It looks as if each time you look carefully, you continue to discover one thing new, particularly the intense yellow seconds hand with the brushed Hublot emblem. A lot of the ornamental components of the dial are handled to an analogous microblasted end because the case, guaranteeing a constant look all through. This texture is a pleasant addition, giving the watch a light-weight and ethereal really feel total.

Peering by means of the dial, you’ll be able to see one of many attention-grabbing points of Hublot’s in-house HUB1280 Unico motion; the column wheel and double-clutch mechanism are on the dial aspect, which means you’ll be able to see the mechanisms work when working the chronograph buttons. The chronograph additionally contains a flyback complication, which, not like regular chronographs, means that you can reset the chronograph to zero with no need to cease it first. The HUB1280 is a stable automated chronograph motion that’s pleasantly completed and provides 72 hours of energy reserve, beating at 4 Hz.

To match the three colors adorning the case and dial, every watch comes full with three coordinated straps, all in Hublot’s signature rubber model. Naturally, every strap matches the case in orange, sky blue and darkish blue, however like 2023’s Massive Bang Unico Azur, the straps are lined with white rubber, which is an uncommon distinction, nevertheless it actually works with the delicate white components of the case. The straps are interchangeable because of Hublot’s One-Click on system, and are completed with titanium {hardware} to maintain every thing light-weight, and once more, matching constantly with the case particulars.
