Jungle prints are not an endangered species. As leopards, zebras, boa constrictors, crocodiles and other reptiles continue to coil and slither around the wardrobes of dedicated fashionistas, these wild beauties also adorn their wrists. After the Big Bang Boa Bang and the Big Bang Leopard comes the turn of the Big Bang Zebra Bang to exercise its mesmerising influence on the fashion planet. This spot-on-trend wave is sweeping off anything in its path, including the heart of true female connoisseurs. For if women with a penchant for watchmaking are finding this call of the jungle so irresistible, it is doubtless because Hublot has succeeded in taming these precious timepieces with a chronograph movement boasting a quality to match that of the finishes. Exactly the kind of watchmaking trilogy to which one willingly falls prey.
