Hublot Unveils Big Bang Soldier All Black, Its First Leonard Iheagwam Collaboration
The London launch turns Soldier’s toy-soldier motif into a 42mm ceramic Big Bang after a two-year project.
Hublot has unveiled the Big Bang Soldier All Black in London, its first collaboration with Lagos-born, London-based artist Leonard Iheagwam, known as Soldier. Limited to 50 pieces, the 42mm chronograph marks the launch of the partnership.
The 42mm chronograph keeps the Big Bang format in shadow: microblasted and polished black ceramic case and bezel, a sapphire dial, and a black-plated titanium case-back engraved with the coordinates of Hublot’s London boutique.
The HUB1280 Unico, Hublot’s in-house self-winding chronograph, powers the watch with 354 components and a 72-hour reserve.
Hublot pairs the watch with a black fabric strap, then adds two rubber alternatives with red and green linings, colors the release connects to Soldier’s 2024 book.
It brings Soldier’s toy-soldier motif into Hublot’s all-black ceramic language.
