Hublot Big Bang

If your Hublot Big Bang watch has stopped due to lack of wear, you’ll need to wind it down manually to get it running again. First, unscrew the crown by turning it counterclockwise until it releases. Then, pull the crown out to position 1 (the winding position). Rotate the crown clockwise approximately ten times to provide enough power to start the movement. You should feel a slight resistance as you wind. Once wound, gently push the crown back in and screw it down clockwise until tight to ensure water resistance. The automatic movement will then continue to wind itself as you wear the watch. For optimal performance, it’s recommended to wear your Big Bang for at least 8 hours daily to keep it fully wound.

Hublot Big Bang watches are engineered for impressive water resistance, though exact ratings vary by model. Most Big Bang models offer water resistance to 100 meters (10 ATM/330 feet). This makes them suitable for swimming and snorkelling but not for scuba diving. Some specialized diving versions can reach depths of up to 4000 meters. To maintain water resistance, ensure the crown is always fully screwed down when not in use. It’s also important to have the water-resistance checked during regular servicing every 3-5 years, as seals can degrade over time. After swimming in saltwater, rinse your watch in fresh water to prevent corrosion. Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is submerged.

The chronograph on a Hublot Big Bang allows precise timing of events up to 12 hours. To use it:

1. Start timing by pressing the top pusher (usually at 2 o’clock). The second hand of the central chronograph will begin moving.
2. Stop timing by pressing the top pusher again. Read the elapsed time on the subdials – typically minutes at 3 o’clock and hours at 6 o’clock.
3. Reset the chronograph to zero by pressing the bottom pusher (usually at 4 o’clock).

The chronograph can be started and stopped repeatedly without resetting. On most Big Bang models, the chronograph seconds hand makes a full rotation every 60 seconds, while subdial tracks elapsed minutes and another tracks hours. Some models may have additional features like split-second timing. Always refer to your specific model’s manual for exact functionality, as features can vary between different Big Bang references.
