Roger Moore, Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Diana, Michael Jackson, Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly, David Niven, Peter Sellers, King Juan Carlos, George Soros, Jeanne Moreau, Julie Andrews, Margaret Thatcher, Johnny Hallyday, Bernie Ecclestone… This list could go on and on, so intimately tied is the history of the Greengo, the Gstaad Palace’s legendary night club, to the worldwide renown of the Swiss resort.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Greengo, the Gstaad Palace and Hublot have teamed up to create a Big Bang in the colours of the club – with a Black Magic base featuring the two famous green and orange colours – in an edition of just 40 pieces (for 40 years), available only from the Gstaad Palace. Our nod to history: the Greengo logo takes its place on the dial instead of the index at 8 o’clock… or at 40 mins, representing 40 years of legendary parties. The presentation will be on 7 January 2011; at the Greengo, naturally! It promises to be accompanied an epic, glorious celebration …
