Winter 2018
Hublot has unveiled a chronograph for the undefeated champion of the noble art, Floyd “Money” Mayweather.
Twelve-time, five division undefeated world champion Mayweather is boxing’s gold. The champion of champions, who reigned supreme for more than two decades, amassing a 50-0 unsurpassed ring record, joined Hublot executives recently in Las Vegas, US, to unveil two new watches created in collaboration with the luxury watch company.
“Money” unveiled the Big Bang Unico TMT, an abbreviation of “The Money Team” and symbol of the powerful and highly visible logo of Floyd Mayweather’s lifestyle brand.
The story of the “knockout” partnership between Hublot and Mayweather began in 2015 at “The Fight of the Century” pitting Mayweather against Manny Pacquiao. For the first time, he sported the name of the brand on his boxing shorts.
In 2017, for “The Money Fight” against Conor McGregor, Mayweather wore Hublot on his belt once again. These shorts have become the emblem of the legend of legends, sealing his 50th straight win.
The Big Bang Unico TMT adorns its winning outfit with a strap in black calf leather enhanced with python and gold studs, transposing the codes of the famous shorts worn by Mayweather during his latest fight. The boxing champion’s gold appears in the details of the two watches.
For the first time, 3N-gold-incrusted carbon fibre dresses the watch from its case to its bezel. This is a unique composite material; gold powder is manually inserted into the carbon fibre layers before being compressed. At 12 o’clock, the watch displays the three letters TMT in appliqué.
The sapphire caseback bears the champion’s ultimate inscription, TBE, “The Best Ever”. Released in a limited edition of 100 pieces, the Big Bang Unico TMT is also available in 10 numbered editions set entirely in 3N gold.
The flange, bezel, case, counters, index and three golden TMT letters sparkle beneath the light of 48 baguette-cut diamonds and 378 brilliant-cut diamonds for a carat weight of 4.85.
