FORGET ABOUT COFFEE, HUBLOT & NESPRESSO’S ELECTRIFYING COLLABORATION WILL KEEP YOUR EYES WIDE OPEN.

...Just what you need on a Monday morning!
Hublot and Nespresso's Extraordinary Union Gives Birth to a groundbreaking Big Bang Masterpiece, Fusing Recycling and Circular Ingenuity. Check Out the World's First Timepiece Crafted from Recycled Nespresso Capsules and Transmuted Coffee Grounds!

There’s no need for you to keep your coffee hot to keep your eyes wide open because if this won’t keep you wide awake we don’t know what will. In this remarkable collaboration between Hublot and Nespresso, The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin unfolds. It is an embodiment of shared values, where innovation, excellence, and sustainability intertwine. Hublot, a visionary since its inception in 1980, dared to elevate rubber to a place of prominence in the realm of watchmaking, embracing its unique character in their iconic straps with Nespresso, a titan of taste since 1986, revolutionized the Art of Coffee with its portioned system. In 1991, they unveiled a recycling system, a testament to their unwavering dedication to sustainability. This ingenious design elegantly separates the aluminum from the coffee grounds, allowing each element to be repurposed.

And so, the extraordinary unfolds, a harmonious metamorphosis occurs as a coffee capsule transcends its humble origins to be reborn as a timepiece, from strap to case. This unprecedented feat, a testament to the pioneering spirit of Hublot and Nespresso, defies convention. By ingeniously transforming used coffee grounds from the capsules into exquisite watch straps, they breathe new life into discarded remnants. The recycled aluminum, infused with the very essence of the aluminum capsules, assumes its newfound purpose with grace. It becomes the sturdy case, the intricate bezel, the regal crown, and the tactile pusher. With each component bearing the mark of coffee’s journey, a remarkable symphony of sustainability and ingenuity reverberates within The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin, forever etching a unique tale on the canvas of time.

Nespresso’s iconic “N” is delicately engraved upon the crown as an homage to the transcendent Master Origins Peru Organic capsule, the emblematic hue dances in harmonious celebration. Within The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin, a 42-mm case materializes, a testament to sustainability’s rebirth. Crafted with reverence, recycled aluminum takes center stage, infused with the spirit of Nespresso’s coffee capsules, awakening vibrant green splendor. The crown and pusher, immersed in the same transformative rite, bear the vibrant hue with pride. Descending further into the masterpiece, the case’s foundation and the vessel that cradles its essence are born from Eco-Titanium, a noble lineage of recycled titanium, embodying the harmony of sustainability and resilience.

Even the embrace that encircles the wrist resonates with the same vibrant hue, echoing the symphony of unity. The titanium deployant buckle, adorned with a decorative cap of recycled aluminum, harmonizes seamlessly with the rubber strap. Alongside, the Velcro strap’s sport buckle, in perfect harmony, emerges bathed in the resplendent anodized green. Hublot’s masterful artistry also unveils a rubber strap, a testament to the delicate equilibrium achieved by skillfully blending each ingredient. 

In a mesmerizing union, Hublot joins forces with SingTex, an esteemed partner of Nespresso, renowned for their transformative use of recycled coffee grounds. A fabric, known as Scafé, emerges as a revelation, composed of 100% recycled fibers. This unprecedented fusion, a mix between 5% coffee grounds and 95% recycled polyester, forms a statement, never before witnessed in the realm of watchmaking. A bracelet born from delicate equilibrium, where the rubber strap intertwines with 4.1% coffee grounds, 8.2% recycled white rubber, and the essence of Hublot’s timeless formula.

A year of ceaseless dedication unfurls, as Hublot and Nespresso immerse themselves in the alchemy of color, orchestrating a symphony of seven distinct materials. From the anodized aluminum case to the varnish that adorns the dial and hands, from the Hublot logo decal upon the glass to the rubber of the strap, and even to the fabric, lining, and hook & loop tape of the Velcro strap—each element meticulously crafted to embody a harmonious palette. Ensuring the testament of time, this chromatic unity emerges, an everlasting testament to the intertwining journeys of Hublot and Nespresso.

The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin arrives encased within the Hublot Greenbox, an emblem of innovation birthed from the watchmaking titan. Crafted entirely from oak, every hinge a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, this case heralds a new era for all future Hublot collections. Tracing its origin to responsibly sourced and painstakingly carved massive wood, it celebrates the essence of short supply chains. A reusable artifact, its interior comprises 98% eco-friendly and recycled components, woven from fabrics of the past, yarns reborn from plastic, and PET that whispers tales of reincarnation. Recycled paper and eco-labeled cardboard serve as its foundation. In celebration of the collaboration with Nespresso, the Hublot Greenbox is adorned with the two brands’ logos, meticulously affixed using remnants of coffee grounds.
