Upgrade Your Style with Hublot Watches in Oman
Most luxury watch brands arrive with a story of centuries. Hublot arrived with a rubber strap. In 1980, when Italian entrepreneur Carlo Crocco attached a natural rubber strap to a gold case and called it a watch, the Swiss watchmaking establishment was not impressed. Rubber was for diving suits and car tyres, not for a timepiece that cost what a Hublot cost. The industry made its opinion clear. Crocco made the watch anyway.
That decision — to combine materials that had no business being together — became the philosophy that would eventually define one of the most recognisable watch brands in the world. Hublot called it the Art of Fusion, and everything the brand has done in the four and a half decades since has been an extension of that original instinct. Titanium paired with ceramic. Carbon fibre paired with King Gold. Sapphire crystal cases so transparent you can see straight through to the movement. Scratch-resistant gold that should not exist but does. Hublot does not look at traditional watchmaking constraints and work within them. It looks at them and asks why.
The brand remained a niche proposition until 2004, when Jean-Claude Biver — a name synonymous with turning struggling watch brands into global forces — took the CEO position. Within a year, Biver had launched the Big Bang collection at Baselworld, and the watch world changed. The Big Bang won the Design Prize at the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in 2005. It won the Sports Watch Prize in Japan. It won the Best Oversized Watch prize in Bahrain. In twelve months, Hublot's annual sales grew from 24 million Swiss francs to nearly 100 million. The watch industry that had dismissed the rubber strap in 1980 could no longer ignore what had grown from it.
In 2008, LVMH acquired Hublot, placing it alongside TAG Heuer in the world's most powerful luxury group. The investment accelerated what was already happening. Hublot built its own manufacture in Nyon, developed its own in-house movements — including the Unico chronograph calibre, first released in 2010 — and began producing complications that most watch brands twice its age had never attempted. The MP series, which stands for Masterpiece, has included a watch with a fifty-day power reserve, a fully transparent sapphire case with no visible metal, and a timepiece with no hands at all, displaying hours through rotating barrels arranged across an inclined tourbillon.
On Ubuy Oman, you can explore a wide selection of Hublot watches imported from verified international sellers — from the iconic Big Bang collections that built the brand's reputation to the more refined Classic Fusion line that shows a different side of what Hublot is capable of. All orders are delivered across the Sultanate — Muscat, Salalah, Sohar, Nizwa, Sur, and beyond — with full tracking and reliable international shipping. If you are drawn to watches that do things differently, you are in the right place.
Hublot Collections Worth Knowing
Hublot's lineup is broader than many people realise. The Big Bang is the loudest room in the house, but it is not the only one. These are the collections that define what the brand is capable of — from the bold to the restrained, from entry-level pieces to genuine horological masterworks.
Hublot Big Bang
The Big Bang is what most people think of when they hear the word Hublot, and it earns that position. Launched in 2005, it combined a 44.5mm stainless steel case, a ceramic bezel with six H-shaped screws, a woven carbon fibre dial, and a natural rubber strap into something that felt genuinely new. Not louder-for-the-sake-of-it new. Considered, distinctive, and immediately recognisable new.
Two decades later, the Big Bang has expanded into one of the most extensive collections in Swiss watchmaking — available in sizes from 38mm to 45mm, in materials that include titanium, ceramic in a dozen colours, King Gold, Magic Gold, and full sapphire crystal. The Unico variant carries Hublot's in-house flyback chronograph movement with 72 hours of power reserve. The Original line offers a more accessible entry point with a cleaner dial and either automatic or quartz movement depending on the size. The Sang Bleu variant, designed in collaboration with Swiss tattoo artist Maxime Büchi, replaces conventional hands with stacked polygonal discs — a visual that looks like nothing else in watchmaking.
What the Big Bang collection communicates is that Hublot is not interested in producing variations of something that already exists. Every significant iteration of the Big Bang has been a genuine step in a specific direction — materials, movement, collaboration, or design — and that consistency of ambition is part of what makes the collection worth following.
Hublot Big Bang Unico
The Unico is the version of the Big Bang that matters most to watch enthusiasts, because it is the one that carries Hublot's own movement. The Unico calibre — first shown in 2010 and continuously refined since — is a column-wheel flyback chronograph developed and manufactured entirely in-house in Nyon. Flyback means the chronograph resets and restarts with a single push of the button rather than the usual three-step process. It is a more sophisticated mechanism, and it requires significantly more engineering to execute correctly.
The current Unico calibre delivers 72 hours of power reserve. The openworked dial gives you a clear view of the movement running beneath. The case is 42mm, available in titanium, black ceramic, King Gold, Magic Gold — the virtually scratch-proof gold-ceramic alloy that Hublot developed in 2011 — and several special edition materials including full orange ceramic and full sapphire crystal. For someone buying a Hublot with the intention of understanding why the brand is taken seriously beyond its aesthetics, the Big Bang Unico is the place to start.
Hublot Classic Fusion
The Classic Fusion is Hublot with the volume turned down, which is not the same as Hublot being quiet. Introduced in 2008, it takes the same approach to materials — titanium, ceramic, King Gold, carbon fibre — and applies them to a case that is thinner, rounder, and considerably more restrained than anything in the Big Bang family. The result is a watch that wears beautifully in settings where a Big Bang would announce itself too loudly.
The case comes in sizes from 29mm to 45mm, making it one of Hublot's most inclusive collections in terms of wrist fit. The dials are often skeletonised, showing the movement through an open architecture that remains elegant rather than busy. The Chronograph version adds a column-wheel mechanism without disrupting the visual calm of the overall design.
The Classic Fusion also holds a particular place in Oman's watch history. In 2021, to mark the Sultanate's Golden Jubilee — fifty years of National Day — Hublot produced the Classic Fusion Oman Golden Jubilee: a limited edition of 100 pieces in titanium and bronze, with an olive green dial carrying Arabic text reading 'Sultanate of Oman 50' and a green crocodile leather strap. Each piece came with a certificate of authenticity and an international warranty card stamped by a Muscat-based retailer. The edition sold at Christie's Dubai for above its estimate. It is the kind of commission that only a brand with genuine presence in the region earns.
Hublot Spirit of Big Bang
The Spirit of Big Bang, introduced in 2014, takes the DNA of the original collection and reshapes it — literally. Where the Big Bang is round, the Spirit of Big Bang is tonneau-shaped: a curved rectangle that sits differently on the wrist and reads differently on the dial. It is a shape with a history in watchmaking, associated with mid-century dress watches, and the contrast between that traditional form and Hublot's very contemporary approach to materials is exactly what makes it interesting.
The Spirit of Big Bang comes in both manual and automatic versions, in materials including titanium, ceramic, King Gold, and — in one of the more striking executions — full sapphire crystal. The Sang Bleu II variant of the Spirit of Big Bang, which uses the Unico flyback chronograph movement and a 45mm case, is among the most visually distinctive watches in the collection. If you find the round Big Bang familiar and want something with a different character, the Spirit of Big Bang is worth considering seriously.
Hublot Square Bang Unico
The Square Bang made its debut in 2021, and it was a more deliberate proposition than a simple shape change. A square case demands different engineering — the movement must be accommodated within a geometry that round cases handle more easily — and the visual language has to be rethought from scratch rather than adapted. Hublot managed it without making the watch feel like an experiment.
The current Square Bang Unico runs the same in-house flyback chronograph calibre as the round Big Bang Unico, in a 42mm case available in Magic Gold, black ceramic, and combinations of the two. The Magic Gold version — which became available in 2024 — has a more understated presence than the ceramic, closer in character to a fine dress watch despite the technical complexity underneath. For someone who wants a Hublot with in-house movement credentials but prefers something that sits apart from the round Big Bang entirely, the Square Bang is the answer.
Hublot MP Series
The MP series is where Hublot stops thinking about collections and starts thinking about problems. MP stands for Masterpiece, and the brief for each reference in this line is to take a watchmaking complication or concept and reimagine it entirely — not refine what already exists, but arrive at something genuinely new.
The MP-05 LaFerrari holds an extraordinary 50-day power reserve through eleven co-axial barrels arranged vertically across the dial. The MP-10 has no dial and no hands — it displays hours and minutes through rotating barrels along a 35-degree inclined tourbillon, wound by two blocks of white gold that travel up and down the length of the case. The MP-11 uses seven vertical co-axial barrels to achieve a 14-day power reserve within a 45mm case that is only 14.4mm thick. The MP-13 combines a bi-axis tourbillon with twin retrograde hour and minute indicators.
None of these watches are for everyone. Some of them look like nothing that belongs on a wrist. But they represent what is possible when a watchmaker decides that the only constraint is the laws of physics, and they explain why Hublot is taken seriously by people who take watchmaking seriously.
