Hublot honours its ties with Malaysia with the Spirit of Big Bang Carbon White, a limited-edition watch designed just for Malaysian collectors. The design is the first Malaysian Edition released after the 2017 Big Bang Merdeka.
The white carbon is a fitting tribute to the Year of the Rabbit in 2023. Aside from representing the purity and gentleness of a white rabbit, the colour also denotes peace, which is appropriate given Malaysia’s multicultural spirit and ongoing unity.
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot says, ‘’We are delighted to honour our Malaysian friends with the exclusive-to-Malaysia Spirit of Big Bang Carbon White.” The watch’s stunning structure is made up of a 42mm micro-blasted white frosted carbon case with a matching matte bezel and caseback.
The carbon preserves iconic traits such as outstanding durability and lightweight design, with its speckled appearance offset by H-shaped titanium screws and a satin-finished head and pushers in titanium and black rubber.
“Malaysia is a key market for Hublot and The Hour Glass, and our legacy here attests to that. Kuala Lumpur was the first location to debut a standalone point-of-sale in Southeast Asia. With the sophistication of the market here, we believe the Spirit of Big Bang Carbon White will resonate with local collectors who will value its rarity and inventiveness.’’ explain Michael Tay, Group Managing Director of The Hour Glass.
Only 88 sequentially numbered pieces were made to retain its exclusivity. The watch is available only in Hublot stores in Suria KLCC, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, and The Hour Glass Gurney Plaza Penang.
