Hublot Launches Its First NFT With the Big Bang E UEFA EURO 2020(TM)
NYON, Switzerland, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Hublot is celebrating its association with the UEFA EURO 2020(TM) tournament by 
presenting a dazzling array of new releases, including the official watch of 
the UEFA EURO 2020(TM) European Championship – the Big Bang e connected watch – 
as well as a brand-new podcast featuring interviews with the greatest sporting 
icons, topped off with an NFT for the first two hundred customers to purchase 
the watch. 

Hublot Loves Football!

There are just 30 days to go before UEFA EURO 2020(TM) kicks off! Fans around 
the world are delighted to finally follow this competition, which has been 
postponed for a year as a result of the pandemic. To celebrate, Hublot is 
unveiling its Big Bang e UEFA Euro 2020(TM) connected watch. Once again, Hublot 
is enabling football fans to keep pace with the competition by wearing their 
very own virtual stadium on their wrist. 

The bezel on the Big Bang e watch sports is the colours of the flags of the 12 
nations initially planned to host.  Aesthetically, it features the attributes 
of the brand's iconic Big Bang model. It is available in a 42mm case in Black 
Magic. The sapphire crystal means the AMOLED high definition touchscreen is 
easy to use while, just like a mechanical watch, the push-button on the rotary 
crown is used to activate its functions.

The complex electronic module operates on WearOS by Google software, which has 
been adapted and perfected to meet Hublot's requirements, notably via an app 
specially dedicated to football which enables users to follow the competition 
in real time. Amongst the features of this watch, in addition, of course, to 
following the timing of the matches with timekeeping, half-time, extra time and 
the end of the match, the Big Bang e also notifies the wearer of cards awarded, 
player substitutions, penalties and goals. There is also the option to view 
information on the team line-ups, the players' rankings and their position on 
the field. Moreover, users will also be able to download, free of charge, dials 
in the colour of their country exclusively developed for the Big Bang e from 
the Google Play Store. In addition, as well as the magnificent rubber strap 
with titanium deployant buckle clasp supplied as standard, fans will have the 
opportunity to purchase other straps in the colours of their favourite teams. 
These will be easily interchangeable thanks to the famous one-click system 
developed by Hublot.

For the UEFA EURO 2020(TM) European Championship, Hublot will be equipping all 
the referees officiating during the tournament with special Big Bang e Referee 
watches. The board used by the fourth official to show player substitutions 
will also be sporting Hublot colours.

Hublot has pursued its exploration in every dimension of technology and so, 
from 12th May, is launching a podcast series called "Hublot Fusion Podcast". 
Hosted by French sports broadcast journalist Anne-Laure Bonnet, these 12 
episodes will feature interviews with footballing legends, as well as with 
friends and ambassadors of Hublot. The podcasts will focus on the 12 universal 
values of victory: solidarity, union, passion, commitment, inclusion, equality, 
friendship, justice, respect, fair play, tolerance and sharing. 

In another major new initiative, 200 customers of the Big Bang e joining the 
Hublotista community will be given a non-fungible token (NFT) containing an 
excerpt from one of the episodes of the "Hublot Fusion Podcast"! These tokens 
were developed with the leading ETHEREUM software company : ConsenSys. The 
tokens strictly comply with the ERC-1155 standard, and their owners can 
exchange these tokens on platforms which are benchmarks in the world of NFTs, 
including OpenSea.

The Hublot Big Bang e UEFA EURO 2020(TM) connected watch is available 
exclusively on the brand's e-commerce platform www.hublot.com and from Hublot 
boutiques.
