Magic Gold Challenges...
So from everyone I have talked to that has insight to the brand, retailers, boutiques, etc, everyone says that Hublot is having some challenges manufacturing the Magic Gold Ferrari pieces.
Does anyone here know what the difficulties actual are?
One of the boutiques mentioned Hublot is putting out about one or two per month. I don't know how accurate this is. I am sure there is strict cosmetic requirements before the watch is qualified and acceptable to leave the Nyon factory. Is Hublot's manufacturing yields for this process just very low?
With that being said, could there be a circumstance where Hublot cannot fulfill the 500 piece quantity they originally thought?
Would love to know more insight if anyone else knows anything.

... just like the hot enamel dials, there are so few out of many that can be shipped out. But they are shipping little by little. Ginza boutique has delivered at least a few of them. It's just slow. I am sure they will deliver all 500 over time..... Ken
