I have to agree...

Often this case shape is overlooked or gets criticism from Hublot fans... but I think this watch is just sublime. I have had it on my wrists a couple of times and it fits so well... but I just love that moon phase and the date wheel... classical yet moder... 

Zenith Elite Calibre?

Looks to be a Zenith Elite Calibre inside, interesting... The chrono version of the SOBB used the El Primero too if I'm not mistaken. I like the dial execution, but the case is too clearly 'inspired' by Mille for me. (I'm not a RM fan either) Interesting ... 

yes, its the "old" elite movement

adapted to Hublots needs. (Ps: Zenith introduced last year also a "new" elite movement with more power reserve) A very reliable and well made manufacture movement, although its from Zenith, as you pointed out. No coincidence though - both brands belong to... 

Light and "smaller"

The finishing level of the case is impressive, the dial is easy to read, an affordable and valuable alternative to some overrated RMs

I was thinking the same thing!

For this style, a better watch to wear (more legible dial, cleaner looking) than many RMs First hublot I've liked.

Wow....!!!!

What a beautiful watch! Thats the watch i will take on during my next time visit at Hublot. Thank you! Kindest regards, Sascha

True! Even for me! :-) [nt]

well yes, its a tonneau formfactor...

as Richard Mille as well. Probably even closer to RM... I guess you\'ll find similarities in every watch with another one. In my opinion Hublot stays true to its DNA with the Spirit of BB. I am really glad for this 42 mm one, because its a wearable size (... 

You are true to say that a 42mm case size is more wearable and from this point of view it is a true success.

Yes, regarding the shape it is a tonneau one so we can find similarities with many brands. It was just a remark from me not one to hurt you of course ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

Dont worry! :-)

No harm at all done by your renark. The opposite: I did not think of Custos and find the comparison interesting. However, personally I do not like Custos especially. Don\'t ask me why, I cannot tell, somehow most of their faces do not fit my taste, altoug... 

I also took part...

...with Markus at presentation of this wonderful watch this year in Basel. I shot another Picture with the Gold version. Sorry for fingerprints on it. It wears not so big like the Spirit of Big Bang... perfect, unfortunately not cheap. stere ...
