This fall, following almost a decade of heightened demand, Hublot is excited to reveal the Texas Limited Edition Big Bang Camo, a tribute to the Lone Star State and the loyal community that continues to support the brand’s two Texan boutiques. Since opening in 2013, the Houston and Dallas boutiques have grown brand affinity across the Southern State and Hublot is delighted to announce a third Texan boutique in the state capital of Austin, opening Spring 2022.
Everything is bigger in Texas, which makes it the perfect stage for Hublot’s iconic Big Bang timepiece Available exclusively in Hublot’s Dallas and Houston boutiques, the Texas Limited Edition Big Bang 44mm features a palette inspired by the state’s colors, from the varied and rugged landscape to the iconic flag. The blue hues capture both the vivid indigo of the Bluebonnet wildflower, and the texture of camouflage, a nod to the adventurous and outdoor spirit the vast state is renowned for. A red second hand cuts through the blue palette to make sure every moment is maximized in the state known for living large, and naturally, the piece is finished with a rhodium-plated Lone Star at 12-o’clock.
“Hublot has always been at home in Texas thanks to our incredible clients and friends. Part of our original North American footprint, we have embraced the State’s bold, adventurous and independent spirit, the same values we are proud to reflect back in this unique timepiece. One of only 25, It is a special piece, for a special place and special people and we think there is no better time than the present to pause a pay tribute to the places we call home – or soon to be home – in the case of our exciting Austin development.”
Ricardo Guadalupe
HUBLOT CEO
The Big Bang Camo Texas is released as a limited edition of 25 pieces. Its 44mm case is cut from matte blue ceramic and its sapphire dial features superimposed outlines which form a camouflage motif, with the Lone Star symbol at 12 o’clock. The camouflage continues through the strap where each of the constituent shapes of the outline is cut out individually, assembled, and then fused together using the vulcanization process.
Powered by HUB4100, a Manufacture self-winding Chronograph movement, the watch has a 42-hour power reserve and date window at 4 1/2 o’clock. The caseback marks each unique piece with its special edition number out of 25 alongside the Hublot logo.
In the state synonymous with Southern hospitality, Hublot invited local celebrity friend Micah Parsons (of Dallas) to help celebrate the launch of the piece, paying tribute to state he now calls home in a series of photographs taken over the course of a day in Dallas.
The Hublot Big Bang Camo Texas is available exclusively through the Hublot Dallas Boutique and Hublot Houston Boutique and is available for nation-wide white glove delivery on Hublot.com

HUBLOT
Founded in Switzerland in 1980, HUBLOT is defined by its innovation, which began with the highly original combination of gold and rubber. This “Art of Fusion” stems from the imagination of its visionary Chairman, JeanClaude Biver, and has been driven forward by CEO Ricardo Guadalupe since 2012.
The release of the iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 paved the way for new flagship collections (Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang), with complications ranging from the simple to the highly sophisticated, establishing the extraordinary DNA of the Swiss watchmaking house and ensuring its impressive growth.
Keen to preserve its traditional and cutting-edge expertise, and guided by its philosophy to “Be First, Different and Unique”, the Swiss watchmaker is consistently ahead of the curve, through its innovations in materials (scratchresistant Magic Gold, ceramics in vibrant colours, sapphire), and the creation of Manufacture movements (Unico, Meca-10, Tourbillon).
HUBLOT is fully committed to creating a Haute Horlogerie brand with a visionary future: a future which is fused with the key events of our times (FIFA World CupTM, UEFA Champions League, UEFA EUROTM) and the finest ambassadors our era has to offer (Chiara Ferragni, Pelé, Kylian Mbappé, Usain Bolt, Novak Djokovic).
