About Hublot
In 1980 Carlo Crocco presented a gold watch on a natural rubber strap, a pairing that shocked the trade at the time. In 2005, under Jean-Claude Biver, the Big Bang mixed metals, ceramic and composites and relaunched the brand.
Hublot has belonged to LVMH since 2008 and makes its Unico chronograph. It also developed Magic Gold, an alloy of gold and ceramic that resists scratches.
