Unbreakable gold for a watch of extreme hardness. HeBig Bang Unico Magic Gold by Hublotis the new twist on the exclusive material created by this brand in 2011. A piece that combines the revolutionary material Magic Gold - the only scratch-resistant gold in the world certified as 18 K -, with the iconic design of the BIG BANG and the UNICO chronograph motor.
Evolution of the models presented at BaselWorld2012 through the limited seriesBig Bang Ferrari, the clockBig Bang Unico Magic Gold by HublotIt has the most scratch-resistant gold bezel ever designed, only scratchable with diamond, 45.5 mm diameter finished in black Titanium PVD on both dial and pushers.
El Hublot Big Bang Unico Magic Gold Magic GoldIt is a fusion of 24-karat gold and the latest high-tech advances developed by Hublot and the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. The components made with this alloy undergo a complex process: the boron carbide powder is previously shaped in molds that approximate the final shape of the pieces, in this case, that of the watch bezel. The preforms are then hardened at a very high temperature, so that a rigid and porous structure is created. After this operation, 24 K gold alloyed with 3% melting liquid is infiltrated at a very high pressure of inert gas at a high temperature so that the metal fills the pores of the ceramic, performing the "fusion" of both materials. Its hardness, close to 1000 vickers (18-carat gold reaches 400 vickers), and its composition have led it to be recognized by the Bureau du contrôle des Métaux Précieux as 18 carats.
El Big Bang Unico Magic Gold by Hublot, with a 72-hour power reserve, comes with a black rubber strap, creating a sporty model in which black and gold are the center of its personality.
