The exclusive event, held in the heart of the city, was graced by the presence of Kylian Mbappé himself and Hublot CEO Julien Tornare.

 
Throughout the evening, guests were treated to a vibrant and sophisticated experience, featuring live performance by Anastasia McQueen and a DJ set by Inés Bilbao de la Cierva, which perfectly set the mood for a dynamic and contemporary celebration.

The undisputed star of the event was the Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé, the first limited edition created in partnership with the celebrated footballer. Limited to just 200 pieces, this model stands as a powerful statement of ambition and character. Kylian Mbappé, who has been a brand ambassador since 2018, perfectly embodies the Maison’s core values: ambition, precision, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence, thereby reinforcing the synergy between fine watchmaking and elite sports.

Crafted from 44 mm polished white ceramic and 18K King Gold, the Big Bang Reloaded Kylian Mbappé captures Mbappé’s distinctive mindset: fearless, decisive, and always a step ahead. His personal mantra, “Trust Yourself,” is elegantly engraved at 6 o’clock on the bezel, symbolizing a crucial message throughout the player’s career. The number 10, prominently featured in King Gold, shines brightly and clearly, celebrating his iconic squad number, his identity as a player, and his overall lucky number.


The Unico, Hublot’s manufacture caliber and one of the most advanced integrated chronographs of its generation, now reveals four of its five patented innovations through the watch’s intricate architecture. The “Big Bang Reloaded” not only highlights Hublot’s mechanical mastery but also reflects Kylian’s confidence and pioneering spirit.

 
Regarding the collaboration, Julien Tornare, CEO of Hublot, stated: “Kylian embodies everything Hublot represent: innovation, passion, and transcending boundaries. His journey from a young talent to a global leader, his relentless pursuit of excellence, and his commitment to consistency align perfectly with our brand. Our partnership is not just a sponsorship; it is a genuine collaboration built on shared values and a mutual desire to make history.”


“This limited edition is the culmination of eight years of partnership with Hublot. The number 10 is my jersey number, but it also represents what I aspire to embody — excellence and responsibility. ’Trust Yourself’ is not a slogan, it’s a discipline. The one that drives me forward, and the one I want to pass on to the next generation,” said Kylian Mbappé, Hublot Ambassador since 2018.

Madrid has become the perfect setting to present this creation, which perfectly embodies Hublot’s “Art of Fusion” philosophy by combining cutting-edge materials with bold design and a strong emotional appeal, making it an iconic piece both on and off the field.

 

About Hublot
 

 
 

In 1980 and for the first time, a watch dared to put a gold case on a rubber strap, turning the luxury watch world upside down in the process. Named for the porthole-shaped bezel with its exposed screws, Hublot was born and with it, the Art of Fusion.

 
In 2005 the brand took this exercise in creative thinking to a new level with the Big Bang and its iconic design, size and layered construction case. That same year, Hublot received the Best Design award at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. Since then, spurred by this revolutionary mindset, the Big Bang has never stopped reinventing itself. The twenty-first century has its first watch Icon.

 
The concept of fusion is omnipresent, the guiding principle for every collection. Big Bang timepieces reshape the geometries of time; Classic Fusion balances boldness and restraint, while the Exceptional Timepieces overwrite expectations to create unprecedented horological objects. With its disruptive approach of challenging convention, Hublot’s DNA is transcribed in the Unico, Meca-10 and tourbillon in-house movements, to add another tier of meaning to the Art of Fusion.

 
Since 2026, Hublot’s commitment to technical excellence has been backed by an evolved warranty structure for eligible timepieces purchased from January 1, 2026 onwards, featuring a 5-year basic warranty and the possibility of an additional 5-year extension for eligible timepieces through the Hublotista program, provided the basic warranty is still active at the time of registration. This would extend the coverage up to ten years.

Alchemy is ingrained into Hublot and not just at La Manufacture. Magic can take place on a football pitch, producing partnerships with major events (UEFA Champions League and UEFA Euro™). Sometimes it happens at a concert, a basketball match, an artistic performance or at a unique gastronomic experience with Hublot’s family of starred Chefs. And so, the Hublot Vibes come to life, through shared moments of exaltation amongst the Hublotistas, its very own community of proud Hublot owners. The Art of Fusion goes beyond the tangible. It is a way of being, the Hublot way of life.
