It's okay to have that feeling....

.. 100 people have 100 thoughts and feelings. It is okay and natural.
I am sure you are right to think that way. But others keep buying more and more Hublot as the new edition is released. Otherwise, they can't do better and better every year. And, no, you are not wrong at all. You don't have to love one brand forever. The brand changes and you change over time. There are many other brands, new and vintage or antique, out there which fits more to your liking. I am sure you have what you like, as a family member of an antique dealer..... I actually envy you ![smile](https://storage.googleapis.com/pubzapuscentral/watchprosite/openwysiwyg/smiley/smile.gif)
And, welcome to Hublot forum, T! Thanks for posting.
Best,
Ken

Too many releases
By: TraceyB : October 19th, 2012-10:06
Having been apart of an antique dealer family for 3 generations, i would say that in regards of editions "less is more". I do enjoy the releases that Hublot put out, some alot more than others. But does it not diminish the value of the brand as a whole in...

My son who has a big bang has told me many times, how it's the 'fashionable' watch to have. I am told it appears in music, film and with all the superstars they use to represent there brand, in a world where social media can reach so many people, one woul...

PamRooBang is such an appropriate term :-))) I too was making a lot of fuss when AP 'destroyed' the ROO with too many LEs, much like Hublot now. But at the end, it's got more and more people buying ROO and the brand is recognized even more. For long time ...
One very important distinction with AP...

I have made this comment before. AP still makes "true" Limited Editions. Hublot, IMO, does not. AP has watches like the Montoya, RB1, RB2, Alinghi Polaris & Alinghi Team Chrono, Survivor, T3, etc., that have never been replicated. These are what I con...
Totally Agree
By: TraceyB : October 20th, 2012-12:47
I could agree with your comments more, my thoughts is that the market will become flooded with models which aren't an accessory to your 'ferrari' or a unique model. I do think there are some great Hublot watches which are at the forefront of horology, but...
I TOTALLY DISAGREE...
By: kennygfunk : October 21st, 2012-07:57
I think it's important for Hublot to continue releasing limited editions for several reasons: 1) It allows them to gain repeat business through its large existing customer base. In the past, a lot of companies left this business on the table by offering s...
If you know about 'Hublot', they must be doing something right??
By: SirJean : October 30th, 2012-06:18
First of all , Hublot doesn't just change the dial colours and call it an 'LE' model as some people may assume. Hublot has so many different pieces with various components, materials, and even different shapes and sizes within its collection which include...
Very well put SirJean

I'm a huge Audemars fan, but I'm also a big hublot fan. With Hublot, I feel like I get more for my money and I have many options. I love reading about new releases on purists, checking out updates on Hublot's website, and visiting boutiques to see new mod...
