A Fitting Tribute to Singapore – The Hublot “Red Dot”Bang
Celebrating a Decade of BIG BANG
Succeeding Singapore’s 50th golden jubilee is Hublot’s pop up store that will stand from the 16th – 26th August right in the heart of Orchard Road at the Ngee Ann City Civic Plaza. Inhabiting a space of at least 1,050 square metres and towering at 7-metres tall, this emporium will be Hublot’s largest venture globally.
“Hublot loves Singapore! With the help of our long-time partner and leading watch retailer, The Hour Glass, Hublot’s presence has stayed strong in Singapore for more than 30 years and we are honoured to be part of Singapore’s jubilation as we also celebrate our own success with the iconic Big Bang this year,” says Mr Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot.
He continues, “10 years have passed since we unveiled the very first Big Bang, the perfect illustration of the Art of Fusion philosophy so dear to Hublot. This iconic design of the award winning Big Bang, is now a watchmaking icon. And this latest blueprint by The Hour Glass will continue to celebrate this achievement.”
“This latest instalment is a mark of The Hour Glass’s commitment to continue growing Hublot’s presence in our region – making it one of our biggest and most important project to date. As Singapore’s leading watch retailer, we are also honouring a prominent chapter in our nation’s history by presenting the Singapore audience with a series of exclusive limited edition timepieces developed by Hublot,” comments Mr. Michael Tay, Group Managing Director of The Hour Glass Limited.
