I am going to get so much hate

Hublot

They're simple, overpriced and only stupid rich idiots who want to signal their wealth to their followers buy them. So, yes I know, watch folks hate them.

For 10+ years I get those comments from watch collectors. During those early years, I didn't really wanna wear/talk about it much with watch collectors, cuz it's so cool to hate a Hublot.

But now that I am older, wiser and developed a thicker skin, I'm going to say it, I love my Hublot.

Here is my Hublot Big Bang (10+years old, no service, still running +/-5spd)

OK...I'm ready, give me all the hates ๐Ÿ˜‚

ยท

Iโ€™m just here to let you know I hate you.

Kidding. You, and everyone else should wear what they like. This isnโ€™t a watch I like, but I canโ€™t really hate it. I think people who want to give you sh*t about it are just foolishly trying to make themselves feel better.

Now this on the other handโ€ฆthis is a damn eyesore that people buy to show off their wealth.

Not that you asked, but the thing that bothers me about watches like this is that while they may (or may not) do something interesting, theyโ€™re so big. Thereโ€™s nothing impressive about all your complications and stuff if you have to take up 2 watches worth of space to make them. Also, nobody asked for a fun new way to tell time. Weโ€™ve already hit on the best ways, youโ€™re contribution is unnecessary and unasked for.

ยท

I like a lot of their watches and I have to say yours looks particular good in that colorway ๐Ÿ‘Œ

ยท

Nothing wrong with a simple big bang. Especially if bought pre owned..

Yeah, Hublot makes super big watches, and some models are ugly AF IMHO, I couldnt agree more.

Although that limited 50 pieces is pretty cool. Its super innovative, as it dial resembles an engine of Ferrari, tourbillon movement, and 50 days power-reserved (not that we need or will ever need) but if I own a Ferrari (never will) I would love to get this watch to match with the car.

Cheers!

That's exactly my advice to anyone new to Hublot, get pre-owned.

I was young and foolish.

50 days is crazy, but I think that gets easier to do when you have that much space inside the case to work with.

I only like YOUR Hublot...๐Ÿ˜‰

ยท

At first glance it looks like a G-Shock.

(That's the most hate that I can bring. To me they are just not my taste but nothing to get worked up over.)

ยท

They're simple, overpriced and only stupid rich idiots who want to signal their wealth to their followers buy them.

There are many brands that fit this demographic.

ยท

I can see it being useful at a buffet if they run out of plates!!

Just kidding. It looks good and the accuracy and reliability are admirable.

This is a No Hate Zone.

PS. Cheers!

Yep, but nothing screams pedestrian non-enthusiast new money wannabe like Hublot.
