Have you ever thought that a watch is not just a tool for telling time? There is actually a complex and beautiful movement structure hidden behind it? In recent days, Hublot has launched the BIG BANG MECA10 watch, which breaks the traditional design and fully displays the beauty of the movement. It is simply a work of art! Want to know how it’s done? Read on!
The charm of movement structure and aesthetic design
The unique structure and aesthetic design of the movement add more mechanical charm to the watch. In the complex movement structure, the dial is an important part of the traditional watch. Although it carries the indication of time, it often obscures the beauty of the movement. The Hublot BIG BANG MECA10 Ten-Day Power Reserve Watch abandons the traditional dial design and fully demonstrates the beauty of the movement.
The release and inspiration of the new BIG BANG MECA10 watch
On January 21, 2025, in Nyon, Switzerland, HUBLOT released the new BIG BANG MECA10 ten-day power reserve watch. The design of this watch is inspired by the Meccano mechanical building toy. Although the metal structure of the toy is simple, it can be assembled into complex mechanical forms. After disassembly, the function and function of each component can be clearly seen. As the power source of the watch, the movement is also composed of many components, and each part plays an indispensable role.
Innovation and technical details of movement design
The new movement of the new BIG BANG MECA10 watch is composed of three linear bridges. These three bridges are like the beams in a toy that carry various components and carry other parts in the movement. The movement has undergone fine finishing techniques, and each bridge can reflect the bright light, which is amazing. On the back of the watch, you can see the clear gear arrangement under the linear bridge, revealing the powerful mechanical energy of the movement. This design not only provides a power reserve of up to 10 days, but also makes the movement itself a work of art.
New materials and personalized consumption trends
When the new BIG BANG MECA10 watch was released in 2025, Hublot also launched a new material-matte carbon fiber. Different from the carbon fiber case previously launched by Hublot, the new material is more low-key in visual effect, showing a matte effect. Since carbon fiber produces a large amount of cutting scraps during the production process, using this new material to make watches is in line with the current trend of personalized consumption – each watch is unique. It is this “non-mainstream” design that makes the new BIG BANG MECA10 watch more attractive.
Design and innovation of BIG BANG MECA10 watch
The 42mm case retains the iconic silhouette of the BIG BANG MECA10 watch. The case materials of King Gold and Titanium have not changed much. The biggest highlight is the addition of matte carbon fiber version. Compared with ordinary carbon fiber, the visual effect of the matte carbon fiber version is more low-key and elegant. In addition to the carbon fiber case, the new BIG BANG MECA10 watch is also equipped with a black Velcro nylon strap for the first time. The specially treated nylon material is not only light and wear-resistant, but also able to withstand the damage to the skin caused by harsh environments such as moisture, salt, and sunlight.
HUBLOT Hublot’s continuous efforts in watchmaking innovation
As a major feature of the MECA10 movement, the power reserve display function is designed to more intuitively display the power reserve status of the movement. Unlike traditional watches that display the power reserve through hands or windows, the MECA10 movement moves the power reserve display function to the “3” and “9” positions on the front of the case and displays it through two concentric discs. There is a scale engraved on the inside of the disc to show the remaining power; the HUBLOT brand logo and the words 10-day power reserve are printed on the outside. This innovative design makes the power reserve display function more ornamental and makes it a major feature of the BIG BANG MECA10 watch.
The gears required for the power reserve display function can also be seen on the back of the movement. Although the gear structure is complex, the interaction and interaction between each component can be clearly seen. Hublot has finely polished the gears and supporting structures, and each gear can reflect the bright light, which is amazing. There is a linear track like a pendulum in the movement. When the watch is wound, this linear track will move accordingly; and when the power is gradually consumed, the scale on the linear track will gradually move downward until it reaches the bottom. This design not only demonstrates Hublot’s technical innovation, but also displays the movement itself as a work of art.
Features and market response of new watches
The release of the new BIG BANG MECA10 ten-day power reserve watch has undoubtedly attracted the attention of the market. This watch not only carries out bold innovations in design, but also carries out in-depth upgrades in movement technology. On the basis of maintaining the essence of the original MECA10 movement, the new watch has optimized and upgraded the movement to make it more playable and ornamental. The three-material straps, including King Gold, Titanium Gold and Matte Carbon Fiber, as well as Black Velcro Nylon, Black Rubber and Beige Canvas, can be freely replaced, providing the wearer with more choices.
