Hublot Brings Pastel Ceramic to the Big Bang for Summer 2026

Hublot’s Summer 2026 collection puts colour back at the centre of the Big Bang, and not in a shy way.

The new lineup expands the brand’s seasonal summer series with pastel ceramic cases, a multi-coloured Unico chronograph, an ultra-limited tourbillon and a set of cleaner monochrome references.

It’s a reminder that Hublot’s interest in ceramic isn’t only about toughness, but also about making difficult colours work in a material that’s hard, scratch-resistant and technically demanding to produce.

At a glance

Pastel ceramic takes over the Big Bang case

The most expressive pieces in the release are the Big Bang Summer Multi-Colored Ceramic Unico 42 mm and the Big Bang Summer Multi-Colored Ceramic Tourbillon 44 mm.

Both use a Mediterranean-leaning mix of pink, mint green and sky blue, arranged across the case, bezel, caseback and dial components.

The Unico version pairs microblasted and polished pink and mint-green ceramic with a sky-blue ceramic bezel and caseback.

Its dial continues the split pastel language in matte pink and mint-green tones, giving the 42 mm chronograph a softer look without diluting the familiar Big Bang architecture.

The Tourbillon version is more open and technical, with a transparent pink sapphire dial that exposes the movement beneath.

At 44 mm, it has the stronger wrist presence of the two, but the pastel ceramic keeps the watch from feeling purely industrial.

Unico chronograph and tourbillon mechanics

The 42 mm Big Bang Summer Multi-Colored Ceramic Unico is powered by Hublot’s HUB1280 Unico automatic flyback chronograph calibre.

It’s an integrated chronograph with a column wheel, running at 4 Hz and offering roughly 72 hours of power reserve.

The movement is made from 354 components, uses 43 jewels and sits inside a case rated to 100 metres of water resistance.

The tourbillon model uses the HUB6035 automatic tourbillon calibre, which runs at 3 Hz and also delivers a 72-hour reserve.

Its dial-side micro-rotor keeps the movement architecture visually open, while the calibre comprises 293 components and 26 jewels.

Water resistance on the tourbillon is 30 metres, which places the emphasis more firmly on mechanical display than all-round summer practicality.

Both limited editions come with three interchangeable rubber straps in sky blue, mint green and pink, each lined in white and fitted with a titanium deployant clasp.

Hublot’s One-Click system means the straps can be changed without tools, a useful detail on watches designed around colour play.

The 33 mm Big Bang goes ceramic without diamonds

Alongside the multi-coloured pieces, Hublot is adding three monochromatic ceramic Big Bang 33 mm references in mint green, petrol blue and peach.

The notable shift here is restraint.

For the first time, the Big Bang 33 mm is offered in ceramic without diamond setting, allowing the polished case, matching dial, bezel and structured rubber strap to carry the design on colour and surface alone.

Each 33 mm model measures 10.55 mm thick, is water-resistant to 100 metres and uses the self-winding HUB1120 calibre.

That movement runs at 4 Hz and provides around 40 hours of power reserve.

The final addition is the Big Bang Titanium Peach Ceramic 42 mm, which combines a satin-finished and polished titanium case with a peach ceramic bezel.

It has a peach-coloured skeletonised dial and the same HUB1280 Unico flyback chronograph calibre found in the multi-coloured 42 mm limited edition.

Details & Specifications

What makes this release interesting is the range of intensity within a single seasonal idea.

The tourbillon is rare and theatrical, the Unico chronograph is the most complete expression of the pastel theme, and the 33 mm ceramic models offer the cleanest route into Hublot’s colour-led ceramic work.

For collectors who already associate the Big Bang with bold material experiments, Summer 2026 looks less like a detour and more like Hublot refining one of its clearest signatures.
