markeym3 2 Posted October 21, 2012 Yes the other day someone posted an ice bang on here , I cant seem to find the post , but seeing it prompted me to get mine out (oo er ) I brought this around 18 months ago from Lay (former replica make) really impressed with the watch , probably the best AR i have seen , there are of course a few wee things that tell it from the more exspensive models IE the sawtooth rotor instead of a flanged , no "H" on the movement to mention a few , but these things aside for me it is a very well made and nice looking watch ....apologies for phone camera ...

Pihlippe 1,294 Posted October 21, 2012 Very nice! Have the impression that most of Hublot watches have a very good AR. I have a quartz version of the Big Bang and it has an amazing AR, my Diver 4000's AR is also amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I too had a quartz big bang , with great AR also the strap had a vanilla scent ,, this one was a bit like an old potato, smells ok now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Electron17 0 Posted October 21, 2012 Great watch, I have one coming from Toro and 2 from Michelle at Silix. Hublot does seem very popular here, most people seen to favour Pam, AP and Rolex. Any ideas why that is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markeym3 2 Posted October 21, 2012 Hey Electron, yes I see what you mean , Hublot's are not mentioned much , there seems to be so many combinations I would have thought they would appeal to more folk ,, look forward to pics of your new purchases ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, Hope to get the 2 from Michelle this week as they are sent via DHL couriers and the last watches I got from her took only 3 days from China to South Africa, The Ice Bang is coming by China air mail so should be a while. Will post pictures when they arrive. Regards, Jan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scorpion 0 Posted October 21, 2012 Seeing yours has made me want to get mine out...........but I don't have one - yet. I like your one a lot but also have my eye on a 4000m. Once I get some funds a Hublot is definitely next on my list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sardonix 1 Posted October 21, 2012 AR is very good on Hublot, but on Big Bang it had that blue tint of AR. I did not like that, sent this one for AR treatment colorless to FineDD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I see what you mean mine has a slight blue tinge to it at some angles but not as obvious like on my Planet Ocean ,, rose gold is looking good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corv99 2 Posted October 21, 2012 nice one! yes wrist check etc, and also GTG's are very expensive experiences!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sardonix 1 Posted October 21, 2012 Yes I see what you mean mine has a slight blue tinge to it at some angles but not as obvious like on my Planet Ocean ,, rose gold is looking good It is the watch i get most reactions on from people, maybe because its big, gold color, and the black dial pops out and has zero reflection. When i go to a party its a no brainer to wear or the white one i have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
