The Hublot “Black Caviar Bang” watch pictured above goes for $1 Million Dollars. Here’s what you get:

* 18k White Gold Case & Clasp covered in 322 black diamonds
* 179 black diamonds on the bezel
* 30 black diamonds on the watch clasp
* Watch & Case total to 34.5 carats

There is a watch club many of us don't know about. Informal or not, the
million dollar watch club boasts esteemed watch companies who have
offered watches with prices of one million dollars or more. For a watch
to reach such high value, an extremely decadent portion of precious
jewels must be placed on most every millimeter of surface area on the
face and case.

The newest member of the million dollar watch club is the Hublot Black
Caviar Bang. Coming from the Big Bang line with all its derivatives,
the Black Caviar Bang has an 18k white gold case and clasp that feature
hundreds of precision cut black diamonds, for a total of 34.5 total
carats. This includes 322 diamonds on the case, 179 on the bezel, and
another 30 on the clasp at the end of the rubber strap. Black diamonds
are exceedingly rare, and are attributed for most of the Black Caviar
Bang's million dollar value.

Inside the watch is Hublot's specially manufactured manually wound HUB
Solo T tourbillon movement. A beautifully designed face opens with a
view on the one minute tourbillon, and diamonds are patterned into the
face as the power reserve indicator. The design of the face is
attractive and functional, but doesn't try very hard to be practical.
With an impressive array of square cut black diamonds, the Hublot Black
Caviar Bang register's high on the glitz scale as well as the
exclusivity meter with a limited edition of only one piece.
