Hublot builds on Chelsea tie-up with second exclusive watch

Swiss watchmaking brand Hublot has teamed up with a Premier League Champions Chelsea for a second timepiece.

The brand unveiled the Big Bang at London club’s home ground at Stamford Bridge.

Limited to 200 pieces, the wrist watch features a 44mm stainless steel case and a bezel made of carbon fiber and blue texalium.

The blue sunray dial is designed to match the current home Chelsea jerseys and includes three counters at three, six and nine o’clock, the latter being engraved with “SW6”, the Fulham postcode where the home of ‘the Blues’ is located.

Powered by a self-winding chronograph, the Big Bang Chelsea FC has a 42-hour power reserve and has a Chelsea lion logo situated both at 12 o’clock and on the case back crystal.

The strap comes in rubber and blue alligator with a stainless steel deployant buckle clasp.

The official presentation of the Big Bang Chelsea FC took place in the presence of Michel Pont, Hublot football consultant and former assistant coach of the Swiss National Football Team, Philippe Tardivel, Hublot marketing director, Benoit Lecigne, Hublot brand director for the UK, France, Belux, Eastern Europe and Scandinavia and Chris Townsend, commercial director of Chelsea FC.

The launch comes a year on from the successful roll-out of the Classic Fusion Chronograph Chelsea FC in 2016.

Hublot now has a strong presence inside Stamford Bridge grounds, on LED score display screens and pitch-side banners, and through clocks displayed in key areas around the site.

Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, said: “The Hublot Big Bang Chelsea FC reminds us of the great history of the Club, highlighted by Hublot’s audacious design and refined mechanics. We wish Chelsea FC all the best for the 17/18 Premier League season and the UEFATM Champions League.”

Chris Townsend OBE, commercial director of Chelsea FC, added: “We are delighted to be unveiling our second Chelsea watch design with Hublot, here at Stamford Bridge in the heart of London. The design is exquisite and, like our partnership, we are very proud of this collaboration. Hublot continues to lead the way in their industry and are a valued partner for Chelsea FC.”
