The Hublot Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin is something of an unexpected collaboration that has resulted in an eco-friendly timepiece unlike anything ever created.
The collaboration between the two Swiss brands puts a metallic green timepiece in the spotlight that's achieved with 28% recycled aluminum Nespresso coffee pods. The result is a 42mm timepiece with additional recycled materials in the mix including recycled titanium for the caseback and main container housing. These components combine to create a watch that's lightweight, durable and resilient.
The Hublot Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin is a limited-edition timepiece with just 200 examples being created with a retail price point of €25,200 (~$24,000). The watch comes with your choice of strap including a fabric one crafted with 95% recycled polyester and 5% coffee grounds, and another made from recycled rubber.
