Condition Report*: Metals:
Stainless Steel

Overall Condition: Very Good
Condition Notes: This Big Bang "Aero Bang" limited edition watch, numbered 498/500, exemplifies Hublot's avant-garde design and high-performance mechanics. Crafted with a bold all-black aesthetic, the timepiece features a fusion of ceramic and Kevlar-coated stainless steel. A skeletonized dial offers a striking view of its intricate 27-jewel automatic movement, visible from both the front and the exhibition caseback, which retains its original factory protective plastic. The dial’s transparency enhances the three chronograph sub-dials and date aperture, while black hands and hour markers with luminescent coating ensure legibility in low-light conditions. The bezel exhibits a noticeable scratch between 11 and 12 o’clock, with additional fainter scratches between 4 and 6 o’clock and minor superficial marks along the band. Accompanied by a manufacturer-issued Hublot digital card reader and a numbers-matching authentication card, this lot represents a rare opportunity to own this exclusive, highly sought-after Hublot timepiece.
Hublot: Hublot is a Swiss luxury watchmaker founded in 1980 by Italian Carlo Crocco. In 2003, Jean-Claude Biver took over Crocco’s watchmaking business, and he helped create the Hublot “Big Bang” chronograph, which was an immediate success that won several awards. There are not 50 boutiques all over the world.
