The Square Bang is a new collection that also introduces a new shape to the Hublot family.

The All-Black Ceramic is the only limited edition (250 pieces) in the collection.

The automatic chronograph borrows design cues from the Big Bang, from the six screws on the bezel and the "ear" on both sides of the dial to the hands. The column wheel is visible at '6' on the sandwiched dial.

2. Bell & Ross BR03-94 Multimeter

Tatler Asia

This chronograph levels up its sports functionality by not only measuring elapsed time but also tracks your pulse rate and respiration. For better legibility, each function is distinguished by a different colour: pulsometer in orange, asthmometer in bottle green, and three tachymeter scales for driving (white), cycling (pale green) and running (light grey). A small aperture at '1' displays the date.
