Not typically deeply involved in the tennis world, Hublot named Djokovic \u2013 one of the finest players of all time \u2013 a brand ambassador just about three years ago. He has won 24 Grand Slam Singles titles along with many other top victories. The new Hublot Big Bang Unico watch that bears his name is designed to reflect his commitment to mastering challenges and perfecting his game. It is lighter than a tennis ball and made with recycled racket heads, shirts of Djokovic and more.<\/p>\n<figure role=\"presentation\"><figcaption>The new Hublot Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic watch is made from recycled tennis rackets and shirts <span data-ga-track=\"caption expand\">&#8230; [+]<\/span> worn by Djokovic.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imageio.forbes.com\/specials-images\/imageserve\/673cd54763d1cb19e04e2f4d\/Novak-Djokovic--tennis-legend-and-Hublot-brand-ambassador--wearing-the-new-Hublot\/960x0.jpg?format=jpg&amp;width=1440\" alt=\"Novak Djokovic, tennis legend and Hublot brand ambassador, wearing the new Hublot Unico Big Bang Novak Djokovic watch.\" \/><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Now, he has put his mind to helping design the new watch, of which just 100 pieces will be made. According to Hublot, the brand challenged Djokovic to create a lightweight, sustainable watch worthy of both partners. In Hublot\u2019s R&amp;D laboratory for new ideas and materials, the brand crated a matte-blue-hued recycled composite that is made of 25 Head rackets along with 17 dark blue and 15 light blue Lacoste shirts that Djokovic wore during the 2023 season (the year he made history with 24 Grand Slam singles titles).<\/p>\n<p>The composite material, along with a bio-sourced Epoxy resin fused in, offers a unique color of blue and features fragments of the textiles intermixed for a camouflage effect. The look is offset with a bright yellow and a bright white aluminum chronograph pusher recalling the tennis ball.<\/p>\n<figure role=\"presentation\"><figcaption>The Hublot Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic watch is lighter thanks to aluminum movement parts and <span data-ga-track=\"caption expand\">&#8230; [+]<\/span> Gorilla glass crystal.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imageio.forbes.com\/specials-images\/imageserve\/673cd5e68eccd99ebda6bbc1\/1\/960x0.jpg?format=jpg&amp;width=1440\" alt=\"1\" \/><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The watch is powered by the brand\u2019s Unico Manufacture chronograph movement consisting of 354 parts and offering 72 hours of power reserve. The self-winding movement has been reimagined \u2013 turning away from typical brass parts and featuring sky blue PVD aluminum mainplate and parts \u2013 adding to the lighter weight of the watch. In fact, by switching the movement materials, the brand lost approximately 27 percent of the cliaber\u2019s weight.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, to reduce weight, Hublot opted out of the tpical sapphire cryatal and instead turned to Gorilla glass, a tempered material that is twice as light as sapphire. Djokovic\u2019s logo is visible on the glass and on the oscillating weight.<\/p>\n<figure role=\"presentation\"><figcaption>The Hublot Big Bang Unico Novak Djokovic watch retails for $52,700.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imageio.forbes.com\/specials-images\/imageserve\/673cd5922da67b015b610ae4\/Hublot-Unico-Big-Bang-Novak-Djokovic-watch\/960x0.jpg?format=jpg&amp;width=1440\" alt=\" Hublot Unico Big Bang Novak Djokovic watch \" \/><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The watch is sold with two straps: an elastic sweatband type strap that attaches using the brand\u2019s One Click interchangeable system, and a blue Velcro strap with aluminium bezel. The sweatband strap weighs less than 50 grams and is lighter than a tennis ball.<\/p>\n<p>Water resistant to 100 meters, it features a composite case back and is housed in a sustainably sourced wooden oak watch box. It is also sold with a Lacoste sport wristband and a t-shirt signed by Djokovic. It retails for $52,700.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that Djokovic is no newcomer to the watch brand ambassador world.
