RM placed the same movement from the RM050 which was priced around $900,000-$1,000,000 into the RM056 and charged upwards of $1,500,000. So now Hublot comes along and produces a chronograph priced at $57,000 in a full sapphire case! If I owned an RM056 I would be LIVID at RM for charging $500,000 more for a process and material that is now clearly not worth that amount of money. But their prices have always been insanely high so I expect nothing else at this point I just hope that this is a wake up call.

A few pics of the Hublot Big Bang Unico Sapphire

Hublot has just unveiled this new version of the Big Bang Unico featuring a very original style... let's enjoy a full see-through design in the context of the in-house chronograph movement of Hublot! Full press release is available in the news forum: www....
The concept is interesting.

And I think it works on this LE. It reminds me of an artist's sketch of conceptual watch in a very old AP catalog.
Nice

Don't really like the Big Bang but this one looks cool.
Wow, interesting cool watch!

It is certainly different one. Cool! Good looking, but somewhat "Swatch-like" looking. I might want to do something about the strap - but overall, good concept and execution. Good job, Hublot! Ken

So Richard mille and Moser told us some BS?

I really like this sapphire Hublot While I'm not the biggest Hublot fan, this is something I appreciate Some years ago Richard Mille made something similar with a tourbillon , RM charged an insane 1,6 million They said it took them over 1000 hrs to make t...

I do think RM is catered to individuals with BIG ego. Well, at least they are very2x rich haha
Great pics FX...

and from trying on the watch during Geneva watch week, I can say it sure is a stand out piece from Hublot... at Basel it is going to be a blast. This one is only a proto... they assure me that the final version will look even better! Cheers Andrew
JCB has started playing tough
By: piccolochimico (aka dsgalaxy1) : February 11th, 2016-14:05
First a cheap tourbillon with TH, now a cheap sapphire case. We know that in the luxury world nothing really worth the price tag,but with these moves i think JCB is changing the game's rules. For the first time a rush towards lower prices, but with more c...
This is a logical step for Hublot

Unico has always been about a sexy production movement that has many details to please the eye. I am a huge fan of the Unico and I'm glad to see an equally sexy case that displays the movement in all its glory!
