Hublot has never been shy about pushing boundaries, and their latest release, the Big Bang MECA-10 Aspen One, is no exception. Designed in collaboration with Aspen One—the parent company of Aspen Snowmass—this watch is a tribute to one of North America’s most iconic ski destinations. It’s Hublot’s third timepiece with the resort and proof that the brand isn’t just here for a one-off collaboration. They’re embedding themselves in the culture of high-altitude luxury, one limited-edition release at a time.
Hublot, as the Official Timekeeper and Resort Partner, has been embedding itself in Aspen’s snowy world since 2019. The Big Bang MECA-10 Aspen One takes that ethos and filters it through the icy lens of Colorado’s most exclusive mountain town.
What’s in the Watch?
Let’s talk specs. This isn’t just a pretty face on a standard case. Hublot went all-in on materials and mechanics.
- Ceramic & Titanium Construction: The 45mm case is made of microblasted black ceramic, paired with a white ceramic bezel, creating a stark contrast that mirrors Aspen’s dramatic landscapes.
- Aspen Leaf Logo: Placed at the 12 o’clock position, the iconic Aspen logo—a nod to Bauhaus legend Herbert Bayer—is a subtle yet unmistakable connection to the resort.
- Meca-10 Movement: This is where Hublot flexes. Inside is the HUB1201 Manufacture Manual Winding movement, offering a staggering 10-day power reserve. That’s not just impressive—it’s over-engineering at its finest.
- Sustainability Angle: The packaging is 98% eco-friendly, aligning with Aspen’s push for sustainable luxury.
Built for the Slopes (Or the Lodge Bar)
Functionally, the Big Bang MECA-10 Aspen One is as tough as it is beautiful. The non-slip rubber outsole is probably more useful in ski boots than on your wrist, but the barnyard-resistant leather should hold up just fine in a mountain town where the only livestock most people see is on a dinner plate.
The 10 ATM water resistance means you can survive an unexpected wipeout in fresh powder without worrying about your $27,400 watch. And let’s be honest—this isn’t the kind of timepiece you hide under a jacket. It’s meant to be seen, preferably while sipping something expensive by the fire.
Final Thoughts
Hublot doesn’t just make watches—they make statements. The Big Bang MECA-10 Aspen One is a high-end flex disguised as a functional timepiece. Whether you’re carving down a double black diamond or just enjoying après-ski at The Little Nell, this watch is a reminder that luxury and adventure can coexist—at least at 8,000 feet above sea level.
