Technical description

LIMITED EDITION Big Bang Luna Rossa Having dedicated the first Big Bang model to ?Tuiga?, a 15-metre J-Class yacht built in 1909, renovated in 1993 and owned by the Monaco Yacht Club, Hublot has now chosen the image of a contemporary yacht and a partnership for the design of its very latest Big Bang. It bears the name of a team that is taking part for the 3rd time in the oldest sailing race in the world with high hopes of being among the winning challengers!
