Hublot has unveiled its latest timepieces as part of this year's LVMH Watch Week. The line features bold new colorways that reflect the brand's playful and rebellious spirit, as well as innovative timepieces that showcase its mechanical prowess and avant-garde vision, Hypebeast reports.

MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System Titanium

The limited edition MP-10 Tourbillon Weight Energy System Titanium of 50 pieces features avant-garde design and is priced at $264,000. By eliminating the dial, tube and rotor, innovative features have been implemented to provide a unique way of viewing time.

At its core, the reference model features a roller display to indicate the hours and minutes, while the power reserve is indicated using a round half-dial. The reference model is equipped with a tilting tourbillon and the HUB017 in-house movement, consisting of 592 parts.

Big Bang Unico Green SAXEM

Finished in vibrant green from case to strap, the latest iteration of the Big Bang Unico comes “dressed” in Hublot's revolutionary SAXEM (sapphire aluminum oxide and rare earth mineral) material, a synthetic material that the brand compares to sapphire for its durability and reliability.

Black coated titanium screws highlight the bezel and 44mm case, creating a clear color contrast to the eye-catching watch. This is enhanced by the openwork dial of the in-house caliber MHUB1280 UNICO 2 with flyback chronograph function. The Big Bang Unico Green Saxem limited edition of 100 pieces will retail for $116,000.

Classic Fusion Tourbillon Orlinski

The duo of Tourbillon Orlinski models were presented in the Hublot Classic Fusion collection. The two models come in Yellow Magic and Sky Blue colorways, reflecting the brand's love for pop and edgy aesthetics.

The dial, encased in polished ceramic, reveals the delicate beating heart of the in-house hand-wound HUB6021 skeletonized tourbillon movement with a 105-hour power reserve. Priced at $95,000, each colorway comes with a matching rubber strap.

Spirit of Big Bang Jewelry

Hublot has introduced a line of stunning Spirit of Big Bang models. This watch has a luxurious appearance and comes in a 32mm wide sandwich case made of steel or 18k gold. The case, bezel, and dial are set with 96 diamonds or colored gemstones, creating a rainbow color scheme.

Prices range from $34,600 to $80,000, the rainbow colorway comes with a multicolor strap, and the pavé variants come with black or white rubber straps.
