Hublot occupies a unique position in the luxury watch market. The Big Bang is loud, oversized, and deliberately aggressive — a watch designed to be seen rather than quietly admired. It is either exactly what you want or exactly what you do not. If you are reading this guide, you are probably in the first camp. This is everything you need to know before buying a Hublot Big Bang super clone.
What Makes the Big Bang Worth Cloning
The Big Bang was introduced in 2005 and became one of the defining watches of the 2000s. Jean-Claude Biver's strategy at Hublot was simple: take a high-tech case construction, combine it with an unmistakable porthole-inspired case design, and use materials that no other brand was using at the time — carbon fiber, ceramic, titanium, and rubber straps bonded to titanium buckles using aerospace adhesives.
The result was a watch that polarized opinion but dominated visibility. The Big Bang became a status symbol in sports, entertainment, and finance at a price point starting around $20,000 and climbing rapidly toward six figures for complicated variants.
Cloning it well requires accuracy in three specific areas: the H-shaped titanium screws on the bezel and case back, the skeletonized dial showing movement architecture, and the composite case construction that combines materials most super clone facilities do not have experience with.
The Main Big Bang References Available as Super Clones
Big Bang Unico 42mm
The 42mm Unico is the most commonly available Big Bang clone and the best choice for a first Hublot super clone. It uses a skeletonized dial that reveals the movement underneath, a black ceramic bezel with six H-screws, and a rubber-and-fabric composite strap with a folding clasp.
The clone uses a visually accurate skeletonized automatic movement. The dial apertures correctly frame the balance wheel and barrel. From any viewing distance that does not involve a watchmaker's loupe and direct comparison to the genuine article, the Unico clone reads as a convincing Big Bang.
Price range: $580 to $750.
Big Bang Tourbillon Skeleton
The tourbillon variant is the most ambitious Big Bang clone and the most expensive. It features a visible tourbillon complication in the lower half of the dial, a cage that rotates once per minute, and an even more open dial construction that exposes the movement architecture aggressively.
Super clone tourbillons are not flying tourbillons with the performance specifications of a $150,000 genuine. They are mechanical tourbillons that look correct and function as tourbillons — the cage rotates, the regulation system is visible, the visual drama is present. For collectors who want the tourbillon aesthetic without the six-figure price, the clone delivers.
Price range: $900 to $1,400 depending on configuration.
Big Bang One Click Steel Ceramic (Ladies Versions)
The One Click refers to the quick-change strap mechanism that allows you to swap straps without tools. The ladies 33mm and 38mm versions are the most requested Hublot super clones in the under-$600 range for women's watches.
Case Construction in the Big Bang Clone
The genuine Big Bang uses a multi-material case construction: a polished titanium middle case, a ceramic bezel attached with six H-shaped titanium screws, a carbon fiber composite case back, and a rubber strap with titanium deployment clasp.
Top-tier Big Bang super clones replicate this with ceramic bezel inserts, stainless steel or titanium-coated case bodies, and high-grade rubber straps. The H-screws are correctly proportioned and functional. The case back shows the movement through a sapphire crystal.
Where the clone differs: the genuine case uses multi-layer material bonding that requires aerospace manufacturing processes. The clone achieves the visual result with different engineering solutions. The result looks identical at arm's length and reads correctly at close inspection. The material is different at the microscopic level.
Movement in the Hublot Big Bang Clone
The genuine Big Bang Unico uses the MHUB1280 in-house chronograph movement — a column wheel chronograph with a horizontal clutch, self-winding mechanism, 72-hour power reserve, and exhibition case back.
Super clone versions use a custom skeletonized movement that matches the visual architecture of the genuine. The movement is automatic, beats at 28,800 vph, and provides approximately 42 hours of power reserve. Regulated accuracy is plus or minus eight seconds per day from the factory.
For the tourbillon variant, the movement is a genuine mechanical tourbillon — the cage rotates on a one-minute cycle and the regulation is functional, not decorative.
Strap Options
The Big Bang super clone is available with the following strap options, matching genuine Hublot offerings:
- Black rubber with titanium deployment clasp (standard)
- Black rubber with black ceramic deployment clasp
- Blue rubber for the Spirit of Big Bang editions
- Alligator-pattern leather strap
- Multi-material composite fabric and rubber strap
All straps use the standard 27mm lug width of the genuine, meaning aftermarket Hublot straps in the correct size fit the clone.
Who the Big Bang Clone Is For
The Big Bang is a bold watch. It sits large on the wrist, communicates wealth aggressively, and is immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with the reference. This is not a watch for quiet luxury or understated elegance. It is for buyers who want visible presence.
It is an excellent choice for:
- Sport and fitness contexts where the large case and rubber strap are appropriate
- Entertainment, creative, and fashion industries where bold jewelry reads as on-brand
- Collectors who want a Hublot reference without committing $20,000 or more to the genuine
It is a poor choice for:
- Traditional finance or legal environments where a Submariner or Datejust is more appropriate
- Buyers who prefer slim, understated dress watches
- Anyone who wants something that does not announce itself from across a room
QC Checklist for Big Bang Clones
**H-screws**: All six bezel screws and four case back screws should be uniformly sized, properly seated with no cam-out marks, and correctly aligned. The H-shape should be clean with sharp edges.
**Ceramic bezel**: Should have a uniform matte surface with no bubbles, uneven gloss, or chips. The edge where ceramic meets the case should be flush.
**Skeletonized dial**: Movement components visible through the dial apertures should be cleanly finished. No fingerprints, fibers, or debris visible under the crystal.
**Rubber strap**: Should be firm, not soft or flimsy. The strap buckle should close with a positive click and not slip under tension.
**Crystal**: Should be domed to match the Big Bang's distinctive convex sapphire. Anti-reflective coating should create a blue-purple reflection when light hits at an angle.
