Hublot built its Unico watch design on foundations of transparency, robustness, and radiance. This Hublot Unico Sapphire 42mm watch ref 441.JX.4802.RT showcases the complexity of an in-house developed movement. Some of Hublot’s mechanical engines are specially designed to fit inside smaller chronographs like the UNICO 2 movement, which has a new flatter winding system. This Hublot watch, however, is powered by the HUB1280 Calibre (with flyback function) which sits inside a unique 42mm “glass house” crafted from sapphire crystal. Six “H”-shaped screwed bolt the bezel onto the case, creating an almost industrial-inspired look. If you’re in the market for a limited-edition timepiece that stands out on the wrist with an innovative case design - this dynamic Hublot Unico watch, limited the just 500 pieces worldwide is ideal for you. Engineers at Hublot have developed a see-through material that goes one step further than an officer’s caseback, showing a 360-degree view of the movement in motion. A transparent structured line strap encloses the wrist with a titanium buckle. This Hublot watch is, without a doubt, a timepiece that will get you noticed, however, and wherever you wear it.
