Hublot’s ethos of the Art of Fusion celebrates tradition and innovation, a philosophy beautifully embodied in a new limited-edition timepiece designed exclusively for Hawaiʻi. The name ‘O Ka Mua means “the first,” as Hublot has created the first limited edition timepiece for the Hublot Honolulu Ala Moana boutique. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Big Bang Unico ‘O Ka Mua embodies the essence of Hawaiʻi through its Polynesian design elements and the natural beauty of the islands. With the Hawaiian Islands intricately embedded on the case back of the watch, the dial consists of concentric patterns that feature designs inspired by its nature.
Hublot’s cutting-edge materials and watchmaking expertise bring these cultural symbols to life. The honu (turtle) symbolizes longevity and peace, the shark’s teeth represent adaptability, protection, and guidance, and the waves symbolize life, change, and the unknown. This unique combination pays homage to Polynesia’s aesthetic heritage and crafts a meaningful masterpiece that resonates deeply with the spirit of Hawaiʻi. Each limited-edition timepiece is accompanied by two interchangeable straps: Hublot’s classic black lined rubber strap and a versatile calf leather strap artfully embossed with, offering both style and functionality for every occasion.
The greenbox case
The Big Bang ‘O Ka Mua is presented in Hublot’s Greenbox Case with the design of the timepiece etched on top. This newly launched box, developed for use within all current Hublot watch collections, is a testament to Hublot’s commitment to sustainability. The unique case, including its hinges, is crafted entirely from oak and is carved from mostly massive, traceable wood, promoting short supply chains and responsible sourcing. It is designed to be a reusable item, with 98 percent of its removable interior made from eco-friendly and recycled components. The case is made from recycled fabrics, plastic yarns, PET, and recycled paper and cardboard that are eco-labeled, making it a smart choice for the environmentally aware consumer.
About Hublot
Hublot is a Swiss watch manufacturer founded in 1980 and based in Nyon. For its first ever timepiece, this fundamentally disruptive company combined gold with a rubber strap in a case with a design inspired by a ship’s porthole (hublot in French). Thus, the Art of Fusion was born, blending tradition, innovation, craftsmanship, worlds and talents. It became the brand’s aesthetic and technical signature.
