Hublot was founded by Carlo Crocco in 1980, introducing the world’s first natural rubber strap combined with a gold case — a radical “fusion” of materials that defied watchmaking conventions. The brand’s name means “porthole” in French, referencing the distinctive bezel design with visible screws. In 2004, Jean‑Claude Biver took over as CEO and launched the Big Bang collection, propelling Hublot into the spotlight with bold aesthetics, advanced materials (Magic Gold, carbon, ceramic, sapphire), and high‑performance movements. Today, Hublot is part of the LVMH group and continues to push boundaries with artisanal collaborations and complex in‑house calibers like the Unico (column‑wheel chronograph) and Meca‑10 (10‑day power reserve).
Their motto: “Be different, be unique, be Hublot.”
~620M CHF — estimated 2025 revenue, +9% year-over-year. ~120,000 watches produced annually, with strong growth in Asia and the Americas. #13 largest Swiss watch brand by sales, known for high‑impact limited editions. Secondary market for Hublot has stabilized: Big Bang Unico (42mm) and Classic Fusion (42mm) trade near retail, while ceramic and sapphire case models (e.g., Big Bang Sapphire) command 20‑30% premiums. Limited collaborations (e.g., Ferrari, Berluti, Nespresso) are highly collectible. Collectors increasingly value Hublot’s in‑house movements and innovative material expertise.
