Hublot Aryton Senna Video - input? fans? dislikes?

Im not really a Hublot fan and have talked down about them a few times ignorantly because I dont know much about them. I know many dislike them. But this specific watch has my eye. Ive been looking at the AP bumble bee and this has similarities. Carbon, black and yellow but I love that it is also skeletonized.


Just curious what some of the Teamspeed members think. I know Barrister comes to Hublot's defense sometimes and loves his. Any other lovers or haters of Hublot? if so, why?

How do you know that "many dislike them"? Have you taken a scientific poll??

In my experience - and as an owner - I have found them universally praised.

Do you guys all get your watch knowledge from Kurt?? He doesn't even own a watch, is habitually tardy and has a mullet.

Stop listening to the AP fanboys.

The Senna is a great watch but for a niche market.

If you are a huge Senna fan, and want his face against your wrist for all eternity, they it is the watch for you.

I saw one in person at their location in the Atlantis resort and literally stood there with my jaw dropped for several minutes. The technical details are mesmerizing and just as good in person.



I think this watch knocks the socks off the bumble bee- or any other ROO for that matter. Not my personal style, but I wouldn't think twice about this over BB.

My reason, and I think I mentioned it in your other thread, is that the BB feels like a toy to me. I don't get what people see in these special edition ROOs. I love the royal oaks and the vintage APs. But when the colorful carbon ROOs made it onto the scene I actually thought they were a new G-shock model for quite some time.

Yeah. The same two people every time.

Take a look at the major watch websites. Hublot is universally respected.

I have never seen the type of negativity towards Hublot like I see here - from the same two people.

And Kurt does it just to get my goat.
