Hublot unveils limited edition Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé watch. Hublot has released 200 pieces of the Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé. The model marks the footballer’s decade-long career and highlights his unique personality. The watch features exclusive elements and reflects the brand’s philosophy.

At Watches and Wonders in Geneva, Hublot unveiled the Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé limited edition. The model, released in 200 pieces, is dedicated to the decade that changed the career of one of the world's most prominent footballers. Unlike previous collaborations, the new version is not just another joint project, but a personalized object reflecting key moments in Kylian Mbappé’s journey.

The 44 mm case is made of polished white ceramic—a material Hublot has perfected over many years. The contrast with 18-carat King Gold emphasizes the model’s prestigious status. The bezel is engraved with the phrase “Trust Yourself”—Mbappé’s personal motto, accompanying him since his early professional matches. Instead of the traditional 3 o’clock mark, the number 10 in King Gold appears—the number under which the forward takes the field.

The skeletonized dial with a matte anthracite finish and white accents gives the watch a technical character, echoing Mbappé’s playing style. Inside is the in-house HUB1280 UNICO movement with a 72-hour power reserve and four out of five patented Unico innovations, providing a balance between technical complexity and legibility.

For added convenience, Hublot equipped the model with the One-Click system: the King Gold-colored fabric strap can be swapped for a more understated option in seconds. According to brand representatives, work on the watch was carried out in close collaboration with Mbappé, allowing a focus on details that reflect his personality and approach to the sport.

The release of the limited edition coincided with another milestone in the footballer's career. Over the past ten years, Mbappé has not only become a world champion but has also emerged as a symbol of a new generation of players. As the athlete himself notes, participating in the project allowed him to rethink his journey and capture key moments in a unique item. In this sense, the Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé is not just an accessory, but a kind of summary of a decade filled with achievements and change.

The emergence of new collectible models at the intersection of sports and high watchmaking has become a noticeable trend in recent years. Similar projects are already influencing the market and collectors' interests, as evidenced by the attention to other events, such as the start of the FIFA World Cup, recently covered by russpain.com in the article about new rules and the expansion of the number of tournament participants.

For reference: Hublot has partnered with Kylian Mbappé since 2018, when the footballer became a brand ambassador and, at the same time, a world champion as part of the French national team. Since then, the company has accompanied him through all key stages of his career. The new watch series highlights not only the athlete's individuality but also Hublot's strategy to integrate into the worlds of sports, fashion, and culture. According to RUSSPAIN, interest in such limited editions remains consistently high, and collectible watches with personalized details are increasingly sought after among football and watchmaking enthusiasts.
