A Subtle Touch of Luxury

Hublot Big Bang Apple watches are very eye-catching among Hublot 2009 new collection with fresh green color tone. In my eyes, their look like forbidden fruits in the Garden of Eden, irresistibly seductive and beautiful. Not a few green elements are adopted. The case are perfectly toned by green; the bezel is paved with 48 bright green gems called Tsavorite. These baguette cut gems have their origin in Tanzania. A green stained alligator strap smoothly completes the watch. It is said that,The name- “Big Bang Apple” comes from New York’s nickname “The Big Apple”.

Hublot Big Bang Apple is either presented on  5N gold or black ceramic mixed with black gold. The black version is called the Big Bang Black Apple which I feel stunningly cool. The 5N gold version is not half bad also. Not like most Big Bang watches that are 43mm at diameter, Big Bang Apple is reduced to 41mm, a balanced size for both men and women. Ladies who respect Hublot watches may consider buying something fresh and vivid for the coming 2009 summer.Just imagine how many heads the bright and bold piece would turn around!

Big Bang Apple uses standard Big Bang dial. The white dial features gold applied markers and hands while the black dial sports black markers and black nickel hands. Classic is classic, the dial is highly legible and charming, like all Big Bang watches.

Beating inside is the Hub4300 automatic movement with signature black Hublot rotor. The transparent case back offers a full view of this reliable mechanism. Fixed by titanium screws, Big Bang Apple is water resistant to 100 meters.

A  perfect fusion of emotions, materials and colors, “Big Bang Apple” chronograph could be a great timepiece to remember in 2009 and many years.
