Italian entrepreneur, Carlo Crocco, initiated the first watch named after the French word for “porthole” and built MDM Genève, founded Hublot in 1980. The brand has hundreds of limited edition watches thanks to a limited edition-based marketing strategy. It became part of the LVMH Watches Division, which is led by industry veteran Monsieur Jean-Claude Biver.
With the ‘Art of Fusion concept, Biver crystallized the brand’s ethos of experimentation and knack for combining materials. Simultaneously, Biver launched the Big Bang collection, which emphasized the distinctive porthole design, the metal case-and-rubber strap combination, and expressed a sporty and flamboyant personality. It was a patented innovation that took three years to develop and soon became a Hublot trademark.

The dial is stained green with yellow SuperLuminova hour markers, polished black nickel hour and minute hands, also with yellow SuperLuminova, and a yellow chronograph hand with the H counterweight.
