Hublot PLATinium MAT

Recommended Posts

alvinado

Order a Plat Mat last week and is very happy about it.

 

 

 

It was supposed to be a plat mat, but I think it looks like a tantulum mat

 

instead!! Which I like more!! What do guys think, should I mod the datewheel with Taka's to match it with the gen tantulum mat shown on the last picture??

I am a newbie...

I am considering buying a Mat Bang - seems like lots of dealers have them.

I could use your help to determine which dealer is reliaible.

A few questions about the Mat Bang:

1. What dealer did you buy from ?

2. What is the quality of the coating ?

3. Do you have pictures of the watch on your wrist ?

4. What is your overall satisfaction with the watch on a scale of 1 to 5 ?

I got this bad boy from Robert and I couldn't be happier with it. It really looks fantastic in person and has the correct adjustments as Robert shows in the pics above.

But are they still using stickers on the rotors? I cant tell in any of the pics if they are engraved. The dealer pics I just looked at definitely show stickers.

From the pics, at least the last one, it looks like stickers. You can see that each letter is raised and rounded.

Hehe always amazes me with Hublot buyers.

They pay attention to the rotor not being engraved but advocate you buy the V1 at 3 times the price with wrong dial colour/ wrong date wheel colour/ wrong rotor bearing/wrong movement screws/ missing the fine adjustment regulator and thats not as important as having an engraved rotor which is difficult to tell is engraved.

Am I missing something or are the other flaws on the V1 less important than the stickers on rotor?
