+**Big Bang** is a line of bold watches produced by [[Hublot]] since [[2004]].
+===== Overview =====
+Shortly after watch visionary [[Biver, Jean-Claude|Jean-Claude Biver]] invested in [[Hublot]] and became CEO, he pushed to create a bold statement for the brand. In April [[2004]], the first Big Bang was released. Inspired by the successful [[Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore]], the Big Bang combines exotic materials in contrasting colors in an oversized watch. Biver called it "Art of Fusion" and it was wildly successful with buyers. Hublot combined various materials [[Kevlar]]®, [[carbon]], [[ceramic]], magnesium, [[tungsten]], [[stainless steel]], [[gold]] and, as with the original Hublot models, [[rubber]]. A striking feature of the design, as in the first Hublot models designed by [[Carlo Crocco]], is the band A layer of Kevlar® in the watch case gives the impression that the bracelet runs smoothly through it.
+At the [[Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève]] [[2005]] the "Big Bang" won the award for "Best Design" and has become an outstanding sales success. Every Big Bang model is technically a limited edition, and the company has continued to creatively source materials, including red ceramic and "[[Magic Gold]]". The company has also created creative watch movements shown through [[skeleton]] dials.
+===== Sizes =====
+The watch is available in different sizes 44 mm (Standard), 41 mm and 38 mm. In addition, as a diver model, [[Hublot Big Bang King|"Big Bang King"]] in the oversized 48 mm.
