Hublot Big Bang Ferrari Unico Titanium Carbon Flyback Chronograph 401.NJ.0123.VR The Hublot Big Bang Ferrari Unico Titanium Carbon Flyback Chronograph, reference 401.NJ.0123.VR, is a striking timepiece that perfectly embodies the spirit of innovation, design, and performance synonymous with both Hublot and Ferrari. Introduced as part of Hublot’s celebrated partnership with Ferrari, this model quickly became one of the most iconic releases in the Big Bang Unico collection, designed to capture the essence of Italian automotive excellence with Swiss horological mastery. The watch features a bold 45mm titanium case, which is both lightweight and durable, making it ideal for daily wear despite its large presence on the wrist. The case is complemented by a forged carbon fiber bezel, whose textured appearance not only enhances the sport-inspired aesthetics but also reinforces Hublot’s pioneering use of advanced materials. The bezel is secured with six signature H-shaped titanium screws, a hallmark of the Big Bang line. At the rear, the caseback is fitted with a sapphire crystal exhibition window, showcasing the intricate mechanics of the in-house movement. The pushers are styled to resemble Ferrari car pedals, while the crown is engraved with the iconic prancing horse emblem, strengthening the motorsport connection. The watch is fitted with a black rubber strap layered with Schedoni leather and accented with red stitching, reminiscent of Ferrari’s car interiors. The deployant buckle clasp features a carbon fiber inlay with the Hublot logo, completing the high-performance design. The openworked dial reflects the complexity and modernity of Hublot’s design language. It features bold Arabic numerals, applied indexes, and skeletonized hands coated with luminescent material for optimal legibility. A 60-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock is uniquely designed with Ferrari-inspired detailing, including a small yellow date display integrated at the 4:30 position. The Ferrari prancing horse is prominently displayed at 9 o’clock, seamlessly tying the timepiece to the legendary Italian marque. The red chronograph seconds hand adds a vibrant racing-inspired touch to the otherwise monochrome dial. Movement At the heart of this timepiece is Hublot’s in-house Unico Caliber HUB1241, an automatic flyback chronograph movement. This caliber is known for its robustness and advanced chronograph mechanism, designed with a column wheel visible on the dial side, a rarity in watchmaking that emphasizes Hublot’s avant-garde approach.
