Hublot

Go for it!

 

Hi James, consider me a fan. At one point I owned 3 and continue to want more. Yes, there is a lot of hate out there, but to be honest, I never really understood it.

I enjoy Hublot mostly for its aesthetic, technical prowess and a little quirkiness. But I can also say that probably at least half of my love affair with Hublot is its modern day founder (or re-juvenator) Jean-Claude Biver. I was very privileged to meet Mr. Biver and he truly is an extraordinary leader and a very special human being. I will never forget the few hours I was so very privileged to spend with him. His philosophy and wisdom created a very cool company.

I did visit Hublot HQ in Nyon, near Geneva and it’s very bit high-tech and cool as you’d expect. Feel free to read up on the Magic Gold - it’s a pretty cool story.

Enjoy your Hublots - I can tell you I enjoy mine each and every day!

My main issue with Hublot is that they make limited editions for nearly everything and everyone on earth; seems they have way too many models out there and I'm tired of seeing them all. The ones I have handled in the Hublot boutique in Las Vegas were impr...

The strap however is a revolutionary simple yet effective design and it works a treat like no other. Simply insert to engage and press the “button” to release.. Once it is locked in, it is very secure, solid and sturdy. Absolutely no flexing no loose bits...  

Great to read your great love for your special Big Bang.

I know about the Hublot jealousy. The brand produce watches which have a price tag not everybody can put on a desk of a jewelry store, AD, etc. For investment many know Hublot is not like Rolex, Patek, and AP. For me it makes no different, but it is there...
