Thanks for the review!
I agree with your comparison between ROO and Hublot, with respect to the lug and strap bending. I, too, gave up on RO as well as ROO for that reason, thanks to my small wrist. 41mm normally sounds too big for me, but as you well said, Hublot doesn't wear or feel big. My 44mm Bullet Bang fits my small wrist well enough.
Thank you for taking time to write this review. Very informative to everyone. And looks very good on your wrist, too 
Best,
Ken

I want to make very sure about this
Ping, Thanks for the review. As an admirer of the classic Crocco-era Hublot on Rubber watch, I am always a litle wary of anything with the words "Big" or "Bang" in the name. :-) I just want to make very sure about this being a ...gasp....Mens' watch (?!?)...
I only said that...
...it wasn't specifically a ladies watch - meaning that they don't seem to market it as a "ladies" watch as they do some of their other more colorful ones. I'm sure that when they designed it, they did so with the female buyer in mind :) Sorry to confuse ...
Ping didn't answer your question about the rubber strap sizing
so I'll answer that one for her. The watch came on a lady's rubber strap and it was a perfect fit. No cutting of the rubber strap was involved That's the first time ever that Ping didn't need any adjustment in the strap. Usually I need to punch 2 or 3 mor...
Hublot's rubber strap and clasp is OUTSTANDING.
I have owned several Big Bangs over the years and the strap / clasp / adjustability and subsequent comfort is second to none.
Thanks a lot for the review Ping!
I have to tell you that I know men who wear this watch! I like the combo black dial and set bezel and there are a lot of nice details like on the folding clasp. Thanks a lot Ping for this great reviw as usual! Fx
I knew there was a reason why Hublot....
.....didn't blatantly label it as a women's watch. There are men who like diamonds too :)
The intent may have been to produce a unisex . . .
. . . creation, but my sense is the jeweled bezel effectively limits the Black Magic Diamonds to female clientele. More Shirley Muldowney than Shirley MacLaine, though! Thanks very much for the review, Ping. Warm regards, Art
Thanks for the review!
Didn't know that Hublot spent so much time and money into the research and development of their rubber straps. Will have to pay more attention to those rubber straps the next time I wear an Hublot. Thanks for sharing your impressions Ping! I have a simila...
Yay, I'm not the only one...
...those darn APs. but they do look nice. Thanks for the comments Patrick!
The real reason for the extra comfort is the top of the strap.
It does have metal reinforcement as you mention but it is executed much differently than the AP you compare to. The Hublot strap can be bent straight down from those lugs; that is simply impossible on an AP w/ the plot system. AP's croco and leather strap...
Thank you Michael...
...for the additional info and I completely agree about the strap.
Thanks for the review!
I'll admit that I have never really given Hublot as thorough a look as maybe I should. I find their Tutti Frutti watches fun to look at and enjoy the rainbow of colors that are offered in that range, but have never seriously contemplated buying one. Your ...
I've never owned a Hublot Big Bang before but having strapped
several of them on my wrist, the snug perfect fit and comfort of the watch makes it a real tempting watch. I also agree with everyone else that Hublot's rubber straps are the best. For some reason they just feel so supple on the wrist. Great review as usu...
I really like the rubber strap on the Piaget Polo FortyFive, so...
...I'll have to try a Big Bang on in order to compare the two. Cheers, Daos
Thank you Daos...
....I was surprised myself with the strap. I definitely recommend a try.
