It's definitely not for everyone, and respect that some may see it as a toy or cheesey. I just can't get over the blue I'm a sucker for alternative and non-standard case materials, so this one has me...

Hublot meanderings

I do not presently own a Hublot, but am thinking of one for my next purchase - either the UNICO Ceramic Titanium Skeleton or a MECA-10 in either Titanium or Ceramic Blue (I *love* blue watches). I'm partial the to UNICO Ceramic Titanium, but the 10 day po...

Appreciate the photos - good to see them under real lighting conditions and not just marketing fan fare. That blue ceramic....
