Every so often, a watch comes along that makes a statement. The Big Bang Unico Mint Green, a bold new Hublot release unveiled at Watches & Wonders 2025, is exactly that. A vibrant injection of pastel into a category long dominated by monochromes and metal tones, this is Hublot’s latest ceramic experiment done right.
We’ve seen Hublot push boundaries before, from Red Magic to Blue Ceramic, but this mint green ceramic case feels refreshingly unexpected. For the collector who has seen it all, smoked dials, skeleton complications, forged carbon cases, this release offers something different. It speaks to the modern taste for color-forward horology without compromising on mechanical soul.
It’s a watch that dares to be light in tone, yet heavy in presence.
Let’s dive in!
What Makes This Hublot Ceramic Watch So Unique?
The Big Bang Unico Mint Green feels like a breath of fresh air, but under the pastel surface lies the full power of Hublot’s technical arsenal.
This 42 mm Hublot ceramic watch is built around the brand’s signature aesthetic: a bold, architectural case that merges industrial muscle with avant-garde flair. The polished mint green ceramic case and bezel are a testament to Hublot’s mastery in ceramic technology, offering exceptional scratch resistance, lightness on the wrist, and a velvety matte sheen that plays with light in all the right ways.
Beneath the sapphire crystal, the skeleton dial reveals a mechanical labyrinth, a layout that invites the eye to explore. The openworked subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock give symmetry and depth, while the column wheel is proudly visible at 6 o’clock, a subtle nod to the mechanical prowess ticking underneath.
That heartbeat is none other than the HUB1280 Unico, Hublot’s in-house automatic flyback chronograph movement. With a 72-hour power reserve and a vertical clutch mechanism, it offers both functionality and refinement. The movement runs at 28,800 vph and boasts a modular construction, making it not just a performance engine but a conversation piece for any collector.
Tying it all together is a mint green structured rubber strap that mirrors the case, connected via Hublot’s One Click system, allowing effortless strap changes with the press of a button. Whether you’re dressing it up or leaning into sporty summer minimalism, this Unico adapts without compromise.
Hublot’s Material Mastery
To understand the significance of the Big Bang Unico Mint Green, you have to start with what it’s made of. It’s the product of cutting-edge ceramic engineering that has become Hublot’s calling card.
In a category long dominated by steel and titanium, ceramic stands apart. It’s remarkably scratch-resistant, hypoallergenic, and significantly lighter than traditional metals. On the wrist, it offers the presence of a 42 mm luxury sports watch, without the weight. For daily wear, travel, or summer heat, this makes all the difference. It’s robust, but never bulky.
But where Hublot truly leads is in its chromatic ceramic innovation. Mint green isn’t painted or plated, it’s baked into the material itself. Using pressure and high heat, Hublot fuses zirconium oxide with coloring agents, achieving a uniform tone that won’t fade or chip over time. This is the same process behind their previous standouts, Red Magic, Yellow Ceramic, and Blue Indigo, but the mint green brings a soft, contemporary energy to the lineup that feels fresh and elevated.
A Design That Pops: Why Mint Green Works So Well
The Big Bang Unico Mint Green brings a fresh color palette to Hublot’s signature design language. The mint-green ceramic case softens the bold, technical structure of the Unico, creating a unique balance between strength and subtlety.
This contrast is what makes the design stand out. The openworked dial, visible screws, and flyback chronograph layout keep it rooted in Hublot’s sport-luxury DNA, while the pastel tone adds a more modern, fashion-forward edge.
Despite its bold color, the watch is surprisingly versatile. The clean tone pairs well with casual, smart, and seasonal looks, from neutral tailoring to off-duty streetwear. It’s the kind of piece that adds personality without sacrificing performance.
Who It’s Made For
The Big Bang Unico Mint Green is built for the collector who values both presence and personality. With its pastel ceramic case and openworked dial, it appeals to those who see a watch as more than just a tool, but as part of their style statement.
It fits naturally into the world of fashion-forward collectors, where bold colors and contemporary materials are becoming part of the luxury conversation. From red carpets to editorial shoots, pastel tones are gaining ground, and this watch captures that shift without losing its mechanical credibility.
Its unisex appeal is also worth noting. At 42 mm, it’s sized to suit a wide range of wrists, and its mint-green finish feels fresh on anyone.
