Hublot will once again serve as the 'Official Timekeeper' for UEFA Women’s EURO 2025, reaffirming its enduring relationship with elite soccer. As a proud Swiss brand, Hublot returns to home soil, building on its inaugural partnership during the 2022 championship in England.
Throughout the tournament, Hublot’s presence will be both functional and symbolic. The iconic 'Big Bang' fourth official’s board will be prominently used for substitutions and added time, while branded broadcast graphics and LED stadium displays will ensure visibility across global audiences. Additionally, match officials will be equipped with the 'Big Bang e Gen 3,' a connected timepiece engineered for real-time match operations.
Further extending its influence, Hublot’s vibrant 20th anniversary 'Big Bang Collection' will be worn by players, coaches, and commentators alike, bridging design and sporting excellence.
