Help Me Fulfill a Life-long Ambition!

It’s a travesty that I don’t have the Hublot badge.  its a slightly smaller trashed that you probably don’t either.  So let’s help each other out by posting lots of insightful stuff about Hublot, I’ll start. 
 

did you know that Hublot is the first Swiss watch brand to have invested in cricket?  Isnt that interesting?!  Unless they aren’t talking about the sport, then I have no idea if it’s interesting. Whatever, now you know more about everybody’s favorite watch brand!

Hublot is the world's only maker of their proprietary alloy Hublonium. No, seriously. It's magnesium and aluminum, or aluminium for non-Americans.

Calling it "Hublonium" is probably the best thing they've ever done.

It’s true. Hublonium is a wonder material that is forged using the tears of Hublot-haters. It’s what gives it its glossy finish.

The result of that poll still irks me. Hublot is at least a watch.

Just like that I got 2 badges - Richard Mille and Ulysee Nardin from a post where I repeatedly claim I wouldn't wear them even for free)))

Have you ever wondered why the screws on Hublot Big Bang are all directed randomly. There is a very interesting and insightful reason for that. The truth is: they just don't give a f*ck.

Do you know how many one needs for the badge?

25, I don't know if you need to name the brand in your comments. Hublot. Just checking.

I know. Genuine low point. Blinded by hate, the lemmings jumped off the cliff… but did they jump or were they pushed? Regardless, they are in the sea now.

So does that Hublot H logo have any significance besides being an initial?

Obviously.  It represents the proud and noble spi...wait, haven't you joined Hublotista.com yet?  I assume not or you would know the answer to your question.  It's really hard to believe you haven't gotten around to that yet.  I can't tell if you're joking or not, but either way, you aren't taking #hublot seriously enough.

I am clearly blind to the logo's esoteric meaning. This may be due to the same reason that I have yet to make a boutique visit: that I have a day job.

I'll just say it has its roots in the Masonic tradition.

Publicly, this seems to be all that is being admitted about the logo.

The font resembles Gotham Medium from the San-Serif family

I think this says it all...

The Hublot logo is an amalgamation of elegance and clarity.

So this is a representation of the transcendence of the mortal into the divine? 

Oh wait

I've got a WC exclusive look at the new Hublot logo that will go into use early next year.

A three-dimensional version of the logo was used for a short time. The developers added muted shadows to make the inscription catchy. Then the company got a label supplemented with the word “Geneve.” This is a reference to the parent company MDM Geneva.

Does anyone have an image of this?

If you turn to p. 3,488 of your copy of "Hublot, Hublot, and More Hublot", you'll find a grainy black-and-white image of the "shadowed" logo.  Incidentally, the book is not actually bound in human skin as the internet has claimed.

Is this shape supposed to be an incandescent light bulb, a human skull, or something else?

Congrats, at least I’ve done some good for somebody. Which of course is not as good as doing something for myself, but it will do.

I just came across this article on what goes into an “elite” watch.  I have no idea what that means, but there was a picture of this beautiful #hublot.

And for those wondering, no, it is not just a glorified swatch.

The WatchCrunchpowers that be don't seem able to properly appreciate my love of all things #hublot.  In my on-going mission to gain that appreciation, I found this article on what your watch says about you, which among other things contained this gem...
