The Big Bang Unico Eden Rock St Barths combines Hublot’s flair for style, elegance, and mechanical innovation into a stylish timepiece that’s as cool and sun-drenched as the famous Caribbean hotel it’s named after. The Eden Rock-St Barths, operated by the Oetker Collection, has previously collaborated with Hublot on other timepieces; however, this is Hublot’s first time using the Big Bang Unico 45mm as a base.
The new line of 25-piece limited editions features a cerulean blue ceramic case inspired by the sky, ocean, and the recently renovated elements of the hotel’s interior. White corals and sand, red rooftops of St Jean Bay, and the ever-changing blue shades of the ocean inspire the watch’s color palette, which includes shades of light blue, white, red, accented with teal.
Hublot Big Bang Unico Eden Rock St Barths
The Hublot Big Bang Unico Eden Rock St Barth comes in a polished and satin-finished blue ceramic case measuring 45 mm in diameter and 15.45 mm thick, offering 100 meters of water resistance. There is an anti-reflective coating on the sapphire crystal, and the ceramic case back is engraved with the letters “SPECIAL EDITION,” “N°. XX/25”.
Elements like the iconic Eden Rock hotel image seen from the shoreline on the case back of the sapphire crystal and the porthole in the matching blue presentation box containing a sample of sand from the beach instantly transport you back to sun-filled holidays.
The watch features a traditional push-down crown at the 3 o’clock position. The chronograph’s start/stop pusher is located at 2 o’clock, while the reset pusher is at 4 o’clock.
In addition to a skeletonized dial and Rhodium plated appliques, this timepiece features bold Arabic hour markers and bar markers for time indication incorporated into the same theme-inspired color scheme. There are two sub-dials on the chronograph, located at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock position.
The watch comes with three straps: a white rubber strap with blue stripes, a blue rubber strap, and a white velcro strap.
The HUB1242 Automatic Manufacture Movement
The Hublot Big Bang Unico Eden Rock St Barth is powered by the Hublot self-winding Manufacture caliber HUB1242 UNICO 2, a chronograph flyback movement with a column wheel. The HUB1241 movement is developed and manufactured entirely in-house by Hublot. Both the column wheel and the double clutch are visible on the dial side of this automatic flyback chronograph. With a power reserve of 72 hours, the Hublot HUB1242 caliber has 330 components, 38 jewels, and beats at the frequency of 28,800 BPH / 4Hz.
