I wouldn't own a Hublot. I actually have a chance to score a great deal on one over here, but I think the watch is just a big block of shite, but that is just my opinion. Give me any Panerai or Rolex Sub over a Hublot.

You've got a good point, then again in terms of Manufacturers ranking Audemars is well beyond Hublot in the ranking. Audemars is in the Top 5 with Pateke Phillipe, Vacheron Constantin, Blancpain and Breguet.

If you check this link, Hublot is ranked 15th whilst Audemars is at 5th position

Stupid ranking Blancpain #2,not even in top 10 imo.

My sentiments exactly. Within the watch enthusiast community Hublot draws very little respect. I will say they're capable of making some good changes with the likes of the UNICO (which is really just a 7750 clone) but they have some work do to. At the moment, they are merely a fashion brand with an enormous marketing budget (IMO).

Keep it classy though and get an older AP RO A-Series Jumbo, I think these will be quite sought after in coming years.

^^Dude, I am after an AP ROO Diver with the black face and will pickup a custom strap or two and that will be it for me in the watch dept. At that point, I will have the Deep Sea to beat up for everything, and the AP to do anything else in.

And PorscheFanatic, I agree with you 100000%. I can't believe that BP is even in the top 10. Their watches make me

I think Blancpain makes some great looking watches. I've wanted a Leman Perpetual for years just too cheap. The problem is they lack the PP following and haven't stepped up to the 42mm plus face in my book.

I wouldn't say they are puke worthy but just my opinion.




That IWC is a great looking piece! Beauty for sure.

Who cares about how other people "rank" watches? Buy whatever feels right and fits you and your needs best..

Nice TG gfroman!
