The year 2010 has a special meaning for Hublot.It was the year when the first Hublot designed and manufactured movement was born. The HUB 1240 Unico movement is an automatic flyback movement.
The flyback chronograph allows to reset the chronograph seconds to zero without stopping the seconds hand. Instead, the seconds hand shoots back to noon (zero) and immediately starts running again. In the past, this has been a very challenging mechanical function in any chronograph movement.
While many people still have Hublot on their minds as a watchmaker who makes Quartz powered movements for their watches, Hublot integrated a watch manufacture into their manufacturing process already in 2009. It took about a full year to deveop their first mechanical movement. And the result can be seen in the ?King Power Unico All Black". The ?All Black" combines luxury and rugged appearance in a large 48mm contemporary timepiece which wears lightly on your wrist due to its ceramic case and bezel. The black looks represent a kind of understatement which makes the owner smile while he knows what he is wearing on his wrist.
Not too long ago, my buddies would have told me, how can you buy a Hublot? ?That is just a Quartz watch."Well, the more I get around, I see how more and more friends are getting Hublot watches and are truly enjoying them as fun technical marvels and comfortable watches to wear. I think it is safe to say that ?Hublot has outgrown itself" by becoming a manufacture in the truest sense of the word.
