Swiss 1:1 Replica Hublot Supports Rhino Conservation with Big Bang Unico SORAI Limited Edition

As many are aware, rhinoceros populations in the animals’ native Africa have long been threatened. The cause for the decline is directly linked to human activity, particularly the ongoing practice of poaching. According to SORAI, (Save Our Rhino Africa/India), two thirds of the rhinos in South Africa’s Kruger Park alone have have been killed over the last 10 years by poachers, and their population has diminished to fewer than 500 individuals. One species, the northern white rhino, has been declared functionally extinct, with only two females of the group surviving, their future existence reliant upon a complex system of lab-grown embryos that, as of yet, has not proven fruitful.

Recently, one Swiss watchmaker, Hublot replica, has taken a special interest in this dilemma, recognizing the issue specifically in Kruger Park and partnering with SORAI for a limited-edition timepiece meant to benefit its cause, the new luxury replica Hublot Big Bang Unico SORAI fake with skeleton dial.
The new perfect replica watches use the base Big Bang Unico design first unveiled in 2015, with with a partially skeletonized, bi-compax chronograph dial, but is distinguished by its trendy green-and-black colorway inspired by Kruger Park. The case is constructed from micro-blasted and polished green ceramic and measures 45 mm in diameter by 15.45 mm in height. Its somewhat bulky design lends it a 100-meter water resistance, and Hublot Big Bang replica watch features the hallmarks of Hublot’s Big Bang series, including contrasting black chronograph pushers and crown on the right side; a small ceramic shoulder in parallel on the left; and six visible screws securing the wide, flat bezel.
Underneath the sapphire crystal, on the partially skeletonized dial, are large Arabic numerals, which are scattered alongside two subdials, one for the running seconds, the other a 30-minute counter. White luminous material and green lacquering are applied throughout these elements to contrast with the metallic-tinted, mechanical background they rest upon. Very subtly, but also very interestingly, high quality replica Hublot has included a small black rhino at the center of the 30-minute counter, the image almost hiding in plain sight. Passing over the rhino and the rest of the watch’s face are a pair of green-colored, lume filled, skeletonized hands for the hour and minute and a uniquely shaped pointer to count the chronograph seconds.
Delivering power to the chronograph is the Hublot Caliber MHUB1242, also known as the Unico and best known as being the first movement produced entirely in-house by 1:1 replica Hublot. The automatic caliber features a flyback function for the chronograph, beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph, and stores a 72-hour power reserve. Additionally, the movement is visible, with its dark-shaded finishing, via an exhibition case back that features a commemorative SORAI print and the watch’s limited-edition number.
The automatic movement Hublot Big Bang Unico SORAI replica will be limited to 100 pieces, each priced at $24,100 and available via authorized boutiques. As is not always explicit in charity-driven timepieces, Swiss fake Hublot has made public that “a portion of the proceeds from the sale will be donated exclusively to Care for Wild – the largest rhino sanctuary in the world, supported by SORAI – for it to use as it sees fit.”

Best Quality Replica Hublot’s new all-sapphire Big Bang watches hides absolutely nothing

We can’t judge the watchmakers that are playing it safe this year (or really, any other year). Sometimes, consumers just want more of the same thing in slightly different colours, sizes and materials, and luxury replica watch brands are rightfully trying to sate these highly particular – if utterly unexciting – demands.

But there are rebels in every fan base and in the world of haute horlogerie, Hublot replica and its fans count among them. Whether it’s debuting the world’s first brightly coloured ceramic cases or boldly releasing best quality replica watches that are deliberately hard to read, Hublot ensures there’s never a dull year.
This doesn’t mean top quality copy Hublot ignores trends. It released the Big Bang Integral last year in response to the rise of steel watches with integrated bracelets. The follow-ups however, are usually far from conventional. After a trio of coloured ceramic variants launched this January, the Swiss movement replica Hublot Big Bang Integral announced its most ambitious reference at this year’s Watches & Wonders: The Big Bang Integral Tourbillon Full Sapphire.
This isn’t clone Hublot’s first sapphire watch (that would be the Big Bang Unico Sapphire from 2016) but it is the first to use this much of the fussy material. The case is made from 37 components, five of which are in sapphire, and out of the 165 components that make up the bracelet, 22 are in sapphire. The brand also had to develop titanium inserts specially for this bracelet, and these were machined in such a way that they don’t protrude on either side of each bracelet link.
Possibly in an attempt to one-up Chanel’s J12 X-Ray, which was the first fully sapphire watch when it was unveiled last year, Hublot’s contender features a flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock. The automatic HUB6035 also features three sapphire bridges, and a platinum micro-rotor positioned at 12 o’clock for a bit of pleasing symmetry. It operates at 3Hz with a power reserve of 72 hours, and has a water resistance of 30m.
The top Swiss fake Hublot Big Bang Integral Tourbillon Full Sapphire’s overall case design and size (43mm by 15.25mm) also makes this a more rugged alternative to Chanel’s 38mm J12 X-Ray, but you’ll have to move fast because it is a limited edition of only 30 pieces.

Leading the charge: Kevin Pietersen on saving rhinos and the best 1:1 replica Hublot Big Bang Unico SORAI

Kevin Pietersen was always a box-office cricketer with his swashbuckling, front-foot style making him one of England’s most gifted batsmen. During the course of making more than 8000 Test runs, including 23 centuries, the man known as “KP” faced down some devastating bowlers. “Shoaib Akhtar was pretty fast and Mitchell Johnson bowled that fast series against us in 2012-13,” he recalls to T+T over Zoom. “But I was never scared of any bowler, because there’s a defence mechanism and you train for it. Whereas you’re pretty defenceless when you’re charged by a rhino…”
Pietersen confronted that situation on a walking safari in South Africa. He and a guide were tiptoeing past a white rhino just 25 metres away when the wind changed. “The animal smelled us and wasn’t happy,” he says. “Suddenly it charged. In that moment, you actually don’t have time to think, but luckily it got a fright and ran right passed by us.”

That nerve-shredding encounter did nothing to quell KP’s zeal for rhino conservation. It was a passion that began in 2013 when he reconnected with Africa, the country where he’d originally grown up.
“While I was visiting South Africa, I was invited to help micro-chipping elephants (for tracking purposes). We saw this elephant that had been caught in a poacher’s snare and helped it get free. I remember watching that elephant get up and walk off into the distance and sort of shake his head as an appreciation for what we had done.

“When you’re in that situation, you realise that there is something that you can do to help by spreading awareness. I decided that I was going to do it.”
Determined to help protect endangered species, Pietersen started his conservation charity SORAI, whose name stands for Save Our Rhino Africa India. Right now, their efforts are more urgently needed than ever. The rhino population is dwindling fast – the World Wildlife Fund reports that at the beginning of the 20th century, 500,000 rhinos roamed Africa and Asia, but that figure now stands at around 27,000. Worryingly, SORAI believes the rhino could even be at risk of total extinction by 2025.
This decline is primarily down to the poachers who kill rhinos in order to sell their horns. Unfortunately, COVID has exacerbated this trade by decimating the tourism that so many people rely upon. Selling rhino horns is therefore a way to make some cash as the demand remains bewilderingly high.

“People believe through ancient beliefs that a rhino’s horn cures cancer. They believe they can use it as an aphrodisiac,” Pietersen says. “But the biggest issue at the moment is that the horn is a symbol of wealth because of how expensive it is on the black market – people want to have it on their mantlepiece. It’s like driving a Ferrari, but better.”
SORAI’s charitable efforts soon gained the attention of Hublot. In 2019, this resulted in a collaboration to make the limited-edition 1:1 top fake Hublot Big Bang Unico SORAI watches with skeleton dial, whose sandy tones were specially calibrated to match the dusty colours of Africa’s bush land. Hublot donated a large part of the proceeds from the watch (they don’t specify the exact amount) to Care for Wild, the largest rhino sanctuary in the world, supported by SORAI.

“SORAI is now getting offers to collaborate with big brands because of the global pandemic’s effect on the illegal wildlife trade,” Pietersen admits. “But high quality replica Hublot watches were down and dirty with us getting all the hard stuff done two years ago before this issue suddenly took front stage. That’s what we absolutely love about our relationship.”

The partnership has now given birth to a second new watch. As a member of the Big Bang Unico family, the new green ceramic case copy Hublot Sorai utilises Hublot’s manufactured flyback chronograph movements and offers a 72 hour power reserve. The minute register at 9 o’clock frames the image of a black rhino – whereas the previous model depicted a white rhino instead. The other big change is the colour scheme with the 45mm case rendered in micro-blasted ceramic in a deep shade of bottle-green.
“The first watch was made to represent the winter, which are the drought months so it’s very brown and dusty,” Pietersen says. “Whereas with this watch, we wanted to bring out the beautiful green vegetation of summer and all those post-rain colours.”

The $33,600 high quality fake Hublot Big Bang comes with quick-change straps including a camo-patterned rubber and a green fabric strap. But if you like its eco-warrior looks then you can’t afford to be complacent as only 100 pieces will be released. Much like KP’s beloved rhinos, the numbers are limited and demand you take immediate action.
