HUBLOT Big Bang Unico Golf Orange Carbon

The first mechanical golf watch with aperture display is back,  this time in orange carbon 

Hublot loves golf! Today, at LVMH Watch Week 2022, we’re extremely proud to  introduce the Big Bang Unico Golf Orange Carbon, an entirely mechanical golf watch that can keep track of your  score over the course of an 18-hole round. 

In 2017 and in partnership with the most successful golfer of his generation Dustin Johnson, we introduced the  world’s first mechanical golf watch, the Big Bang Unico Golf. Most golf watches are digital, but this innovative Swiss  Made watch brought the joy of watchmaking mechanics to golfers’ wrists.  

We developed a module for our Unico movement so that through three apertures, the watch showed golfers which  hole they were on, how many shots they’d taken on that hole, and their cumulative score for the round.

 

 

The Big  Bang Unico Golf Orange Carbon continues the story, casing the ground-breaking Hublot MHUB1580 automatic  movement in zesty, lightweight orange carbon.

 

The 45mm Big Bang Unico Golf Orange Carbon is simple to operate. The shot-counting mechanism is activated  by a yellow putter-shaped pusher at 2 o’clock, which also advances the yellow stroke counter visible through an  aperture at 3 o’clock. When it’s time to move to the next hole, another putter-shaped pusher at 4 o’clock resets the  shot indication to zero and advances the hole indication at 9 o’clock by one hole. The cumulative score goes up by  one with every recorded shot, and is shown through an aperture at 6 o’clock.  

At the end of a round, the display can be reset to zero via the pusher at 8 o’clock. This pusher can be locked by  rotating it 45 degrees to avoid accidentally resetting your score during a round. And because the watch is  skeletonised, revealing the movement’s inner workings, every operation is visualised by an intriguing dance of  precisely choreographed moving parts – just like a good golf swing.

We love golf! And we love Dustin Johnson! The combination of this great sport, this great champion and this  great mechanical golf watch continues to excite us and we’re very proud to introduce this new version of what  has become an icon in golf and in Swiss watchmaking. At Hublot, we strive to be first, unique and different in  everything we do, just like Dustin and just like the Big Bang Unico Golf Orange Carbon. Thank you Dustin !”
