The eyewear is an extension to the limited edition watch that was presented by Hublot at Baselworld 2015: Big Bang Unico Italia Independent. Italia Independent reinterpreted the Swiss brands most iconic watch model. Texalium is a fusion of carbon fiber and aluminium that allows lightness and durability typical of the carbon fiber. This material combined with colors, give the surface an extraordinary sparkle. The front consists of a mold in which 20 layers of carbon fiber are stacked. A technology similar to the one used to create frames of race cars. The temples are made from solid aluminum. Starting with an aluminum block that is cut with high precision cutters to provide the proper shape, one by one the frames are then manually smoothed producing a matte finish. Both logos, Hublot and Italia Independent, are raised and positioned respectively on the left and right of the temple in a glossy finish, the opposite finish of the surface on the temples. Inside the temples, a special silicon is then applied improving the quality of the fit and overall comfort when wearing the product. The lenses are anti-reflection technology with high UV protection index. The hinges are made from steel and equipped with a Flex system allowing them to be totally concealed.
