Hublot is getting crazy and reminding me of AP spinning out of control with too many Offshore SE renditions.  Also, I hate these co-promotions with cars.  These are luxury items and should stand on their own name.

http://hublot.watchprosite.com/show-forumpost/fi-871/pi-4961693/ti-750478/s-0/ Who would buy a Ferrari Hublot watch? Any takers here? And do you think they would be better looking than the Panerai Ferrari watches? Cheers, Anthony This message has been edi...  

Ferrari is a kind of black cat for the world of Horology. Ask GP, if you don't believe me.

But with Biever, all is possible. Best, Nicolas.

maybe 3rd time is a charm?

or Ferrari should just order enough pieces to go with their car production and give one to each owner....

The theme is getting quite boring, except for Ferrari and Hublot die hard fans

And it will be interesting to see if it impacts current Hublot's motoring theme inspired lineup. As long as Hublot doesn't replace the Shell livery on the F1 cars, I am really not swayed either way. But in many ways, Hublot and Ferrari is more compatible ... 

Here, here...

one of the best suggestions I've read in a while (concerning watches for Ferrari)... Cheers

To me GP was and should have stayed the one, but...

GP made the most nicest represetative pieces for Ferrari and to me till today they were the best. Things change, in our contest I think often for worse but hey let's stay optimistic. I agree with with you if there is one guy that can do it, it will be Mr.... 

Not all were successful, POY.

There were a few GP watches which were marevellous, such as the Chrono Rattrapante, for example. But there wer also, and sadly, many other uninspired watches, in my opinion. Like many things in life, if the recipe is to release a few watches, it may work,... 

Agree

in retrospect that I liked some pieces from GP pour Ferrari more than Panerai pour Ferrari, but don't forget that GP was making watches for Ferrari during a much longer period than Panerai did. While I have devotedly buying selected pieces from GP pour Fe... 

Logo's from car manufacturers . . . .

.... just don't belong on a watch dial IMO, and if they haven't understand it by now they never will, the partnership with GP was a fiasco and also the one with Panerai, I've see the last with a discount of 40-50% openly in their counter at my AD, that sa... 

I agree, safe for may be and unless they were tied to the cars' owners

Meaning made and matching cars' production number, could work I guess.

Totally agree!!!

... same thing with JLCs silly partnership with Aston Martin, in my opinion, I´m truly sorry! fans of those watches :-( I would absolutely love some of the fantastic models in that line IF ONLY!!! they did not have all those AM logos all over them...... 

NO I would not buy one.

Actually not sure if I understand but

Why do you think there will be a Panerai x Hublot watch? Or was that a typo?

Ooops I meant Hublot Ferrari watches. Stupid me!!
