Swiss luxury watchmaker Hublot has launched its newest limited edition timepiece exclusively for The Hour Glass, the Spirit of Big Bang Carbon Candy Pink. The watch, which features an innovative matt pink frosted carbon case, represents the third collaborative creation between the two companies.

The limited edition follows previous successful partnerships, including the Spirit of Big Bang Carbon White in 2023 and the Spirit of Big Bang Carbon Green in 2024. This latest release continues the brands’ ongoing commitment to material and colour exploration in luxury watchmaking.

“At Hublot, we excel at transforming daring ideas into tangible beauty. The Spirit of Big Bang Carbon Candy Pink embodies this philosophy, infusing an energetic and emotive colour in the watch itself. By combining Candy Pink with our cutting-edge carbon fiber, we’ve achieved a playful yet technically sound creation — serious watchmaking with a delightful nuance. This exceptional timekeeper wouldn’t exist without the vision and audacity of our esteemed partners at The Hour Glass.”

Julien Tornare, Hublot CEO

The 42mm tonneau-shaped watch features a unique matt pink frosted carbon case developed specifically for The Hour Glass. The innovative material combines advanced carbon fiber with vibrant candy pink composite elements, creating a striking marbled effect while maintaining the strength and lightweight properties of carbon fiber.

The open-worked dial showcases candy pink hour markers and matching details on the logo, hands, date window, and chronograph sub-dial indicators. Each timepiece bears an individual number and “SPECIAL EDITION” engraving on the caseback, with only 30 pieces available worldwide.

The watch includes two interchangeable straps: a “Candy Pink” structured rubber strap designed specifically for this model, and a more understated all-black rubber alternative. Both straps can be swapped easily using Hublot’s patented “One Click” system.

Powering the timepiece is the HUB4700 self-winding skeleton chronograph movement, based on the legendary El Primero 400 calibre. The high-frequency movement operates at 36,000 vibrations per hour, enabling the chronograph to measure elapsed time with 1/10th of a second accuracy. The 278-component movement offers a 50-hour power reserve and features an intricate skeletonised design visible through the dial and sapphire crystal caseback.

“The Spirit of Big Bang Carbon Candy Pink is a joyful expression of what happens when innovation meets emotion. At The Hour Glass, we’ve always believed that watches can be more than instruments — they can reflect personality, creativity and perspective. This latest creation captures that perfectly. With only 30 watches available, it is a true collector’s edition and a beautiful continuation of our collaboration with Hublot.”

Michael Tay, Group Managing Director of The Hour Glass

The partnership between Hublot and The Hour Glass spans over 40 years, with both companies sharing a commitment to challenging traditional watchmaking boundaries through innovative design and technology.

The Spirit of Big Bang Carbon Candy Pink retails for SGD 46,200 and is exclusively available at The Hour Glass boutiques in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Hour Glass serves as Hublot’s sole partner in Southeast Asia.
