We all have our preferences in life. I like ?The Sopranos? more than ?Breaking Bad,? and thin crust pizza over thick. I like sparkling water over still, and would rather listen to vinyl records than CDs. I?m a Mac user, and I like 1990s action-thrillers more than almost any other type of movie. I?d rather be cold than hot, and I like staying up late more than getting up early. And when it comes to Hublot, I like their colored sapphire and SAXEM cases more than anything else they make. I just do, I can?t help it. The brand in general interests me to no end, but when I see they have a new colored sapphire watches, I get really excited. 

For LVMH Watch Week this year, Hublot has unveiled a new and somehow, in the grand scheme of crazy watches, slightly more approachable version of a watch that I?ve been transfixed by over the last few years. There was, of course, the giant purple Big Bang Tourbillon in 2022, and a tennis ball colored version of the same watch (in their SAXEM material) in tennis ball yellow last year. This year, they?re sticking with SAXEM, but have gone back to the traditional dark green material traditionally used with this material in the new Big Bang Unico SAXEM Green. 
If you?re reading this and asking yourself ?What the hell is SAXEM" It sounds totally made up,? you are hereby forgiven. In my excitement for the new watch, I neglected to provide the primer on the material that is probably necessary if this is your first time hearing of it...
