Hublot Big Bang Unico Full Baguette King Gold Rainbow (Price, Pictures and Specifications)
When the art of jewellery-making encounters that of watchmaking, poetry is never far away. Like a summer sky after a storm, the Hublot Big Bang Unico Full Baguette King Gold Rainbow is embodied in a rainbow of brightly coloured gemstones on a backdrop of 18ct pink gold.
When scarlet blends into fuchsia to become ultraviolet, a tiny bit Klein blue, turquoise, then sky, the green is shaded in chlorophyll to become soft, seize upon a vibrant yellow and blossoms in a warm orange.
In an invisible closed setting, 290 precious and fine gemstones draw an audacious, vibrant and joyful spectrum around the dial where the House’s iconic movement is revealed. The coordination and mastery of exceptional skills—selecting, cutting, sorting and setting—which totally encompass the radical plans of Hublot micromechanics.
“It requires meticulousness, expertise and dexterity to obtain this harmonious gradation of the gemstones and create a perfect connection between the emotion they arouse and the watchmaking technique. Draughtsmen, gemologists and setters worked together to achieve this setting in which pink gold is present only to gently emphasise the contours. The Hublot Big Bang Unico Full Baguette King Gold Rainbow condenses the purity and precision of these incredible professions.” - Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO Hublot.
A symbol heralding optimism, wisdom and balance, the rainbow stretches across the entire 45-mm case; one hundred rubies, pink sapphires, amethysts, blue sapphires, blue topazes, tsavorites, and yellow and orange sapphires line up in a radiant chromatic composition.
112 baguette-cut gemstones edge its bezel in studied hues that echo the subtle shades of the 48 gemstones set on the dial and the indexes. The Unico manufacture HUB1242 chronograph flyback mechanism with double clutch mechanism and column wheel appears in contrast.
Putting the finishing touches to this jewellery piece, the celestial phenomenon unfolds across the alligator and natural rubber strap and illuminates the buckle clasp set with 30 other gemstones.
