Notes
Michael Margolis "I designed this watch myself, as an exercise of what I would make for myself if I could make a fantasy Big Bang. I love the skeleton dial, especially with the date. I love the combination of black ceramic and gold bezel, pushers, hands and markers. Black and gold is back in style, I am told." Michael Margolis, North American Sales Director, Hublot
"The 21st century will be the century of sharing. We will have to start sharing wealth, energy, the climate and finally will have to share the planet Earth. Therefore I believe that every company and every brand has to include and develop a policy or concept of sharing. We are proud today to donate this special watch for a very noble and valuable cause." Jean Claude Biver, CEO, Hublot
