No way I can pull off the 45mm model on my 6.5” (16.5cm) wrists. The 42mm should work very well!

Any Spirit of Big Bang love here?

The Big Bang Blue (ceramic) really caught my eye. The combo of blue ceramic with white composite resin is striking. They use a nice blue color. I also love the Tonneau shaped case. The 42mm cased size probably wears better on thinner wrists than the 45mm...  

Thanks for the shout-out!

I'm a fan of this model, especially in the 42mm blue ceramic configuration. Zenith's strength is engineering and watchmaking; Hublot's strength is design and materials execution; what's not to love? I'll add that Hublot ergonomics tend to be superb, and t... 

You’re welcome :)

True, what’s not to love with the blue ceramic combo! And also as you stated about Zenith’s strength in engineering and Hublot’s strength in design and materials. Powerful combo! You don’t see many Spirts for sale in the pre-owned market. Resale stinks fo... 

Good to know

The Hublot Boutique on Madison Ave in NYC has one in stock. I’m going to inquire about it.

I really like this combo!

There are some grey market dealers offering it at up to 30% off.

The Spirit of Big Bang is a great choice...

... and my favorite version is the one in Magic Gold (no surprise for those who know me...). With my 17,5cm wrist the 45mm version fits quite well. Cheers, Sascha ...  

Wow, that’s a nice piece.

Do you know what size strap is included with the Spirit of Big Bang 42mm? My wrist is about 6.5”. Many standard size straps do not work for me, even on the last hole in, so I have to get a short strap.

Big Blue

I am not a fan of Hublot, however big blue is very appealing to my eye. The perfect color for laying around the pool and sipping fruity drinks in the summer . I do like it's industrial look with the recessed milled slots. ...  

Big Blue...I love the name!

I’ve always been a fan of Hublot, but even more so when I discovered the Spirit of Big Bang 42mm model and this Blue one. You mean nice color for chilling on the beach in the Caribbean and sipping drinks...

Hey guys, the mothership has landed...

This thing is fire! I was so obsessed with getting it, checking it out online and on YouTube videos multiple times a day. First initial impressions, I was like meh, but after a few days it’s warmed up to me 1000x+. Such a unique Hublot model being that th...
