Hublot’s Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic: A Celebration of Excellence and Innovation

Paris played host to the grand reveal of the Hublot Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic, a limited-edition masterpiece inspired by the legendary tennis career of Novak Djokovic. A celebration of sustainability and cutting-edge craftsmanship, the watch reflects both Hublot’s relentless pursuit of innovation and Djokovic’s unparalleled achievements in the world of tennis. This partnership between Hublot and Djokovic brings together the dynamism of sport and the finesse of Swiss luxury watchmaking.

The Legend of Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic’s career is synonymous with excellence and perseverance. Since turning professional in 2003, Djokovic has rewritten tennis history, earning 24 Grand Slam titles, an Olympic gold medal, and countless other accolades. As one of the only players to achieve a Golden Slam (winning all four major titles and Olympic gold), Djokovic embodies the resilience and precision that also define Hublot’s creations.

Djokovic joined the Hublot family in 2021, with the Swiss luxury brand supporting him through some of his greatest milestones. This collaboration goes beyond endorsements, symbolizing a shared commitment to pushing boundaries and achieving greatness.

Breaking New Ground in Craftsmanship

The Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic represents a revolutionary step in sustainable watchmaking. Designed to be lightweight yet robust, it incorporates innovative materials that merge the tennis legend’s on-court legacy with Hublot’s technological expertise.

Recycled Materials with a Purpose

Hublot used Djokovic’s HEAD rackets and Lacoste polo shirts from his 2023 season to create a unique composite material. The resulting case and bezel feature a camo aesthetic, speckled with fragments of light and dark blue textiles, epoxy resin, quartz powder, and black carbon. This sustainable innovation reflects Hublot’s commitment to redefining luxury while honoring Djokovic’s extraordinary journey.

Unmatched Lightness and Strength

The quest for weight reduction led Hublot to replace traditional sapphire crystal with tempered Gorilla glass, a material typically used in high-end electronics. This choice, combined with anodized aluminum components, reduced the watch’s overall weight by 27%. The watch now weighs less than 50 grams when paired with its lightest strap, making it lighter than a tennis ball.

Precision Engineering: The Heart of the Timepiece

At the core of the watch lies Hublot’s Unico manufacture chronograph movement, reimagined for this special edition. Crafted with lightweight aluminum, the mechanism maintains the precision and durability Hublot is known for while complementing the watch’s camo-inspired design.

The meticulous engineering mirrors Djokovic’s mental and physical discipline on the court. As Djokovic himself notes, “Every detail is critical to my ability to stay focused and determined. This new watch is an extension of this mindset and represents key moments from my 2023 season.”

Versatile Design for Every Occasion

The Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic offers unparalleled versatility with its four interchangeable straps, catering to both performance and style:

A Lacoste tennis wristband, ideal for active moments.
A blue elastic strap for ultralight wear.
A light blue Velcro strap for casual occasions.
A white rubber strap with a titanium deployant buckle for a sleek, formal look.

The One Click System makes strap changes effortless, ensuring the watch adapts seamlessly to every aspect of its owner’s lifestyle.

A Sustainable Showcase

In line with Hublot’s environmental values, the watch is presented in a sustainably sourced oak box. Every detail of the packaging, from its traceable materials to its short supply chain, underscores Hublot’s commitment to responsible luxury.
