Hublot celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Big Bang in one unforgettable night on day 2 of Watches & Wonders 2025.
Under a canopy of starlight and Swiss sophistication, Hublot celebrated the 20th anniversary of its iconic Big Bang watch in a way only the maison can—boldly, beautifully, and with breathtaking flair. A glittering affair that drew the crème de la crème of horology, haute cuisine, and haute couture, the evening unfolded as a sensory journey through the world of Hublot.
Set against a backdrop of artistry and innovation, five culinary titans—Anne-Sophie Pic, Clare Smyth, Yannick Alléno, Eneko Atxa, and Andreas Caminada—commanded their own live kitchen stages, creating bespoke dishes for guests in a symphony of flavors that mirrored the precision of watchmaking itself. With a staggering 43 Michelin stars between them, their culinary showmanship was nothing short of haute gastronomic theatre.
Hublot CEO Julien Tornare set the tone with an impassioned tribute to the Big Bang, the watch that dared to disrupt tradition. “Twenty years on, it still embodies the boldness and innovation at our core,” he shared, visibly moved by the moment and the unity of the Hublot family gathered in celebration.
As the evening crescendoed, Alissia—a Geneva-born, NYC-polished musical maven—electrified the crowd with her signature fusion of funk, R&B, and pop. Then came the pièce de résistance: a show-stopping performance by international pop icon Mika, whose magnetic energy turned the celebration into an all-out fête. The dance floor pulsed into the early hours as Alissia returned to the decks, spinning a final set that kept the room alight with joy.
A triumph of style, spirit, and savoir-faire, the evening was a fitting homage to the Big Bang—a timepiece that not only revolutionized watchmaking but continues to define its future, 20 years strong.
