Hublot Named Official Time Keeper Of 2010 FIFA World Cup

[onzenuub 309]

In a press conference just held at FIFA headquarters and streamed live on-line, FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter in conjunction with Hublot CEO Jean-Claude Biver announced that for the first time in the history of the World Cup an official timekeeper will be used: Hublot!

 

However, Mr Blatter stressed that in the game of Football the real time-keeper is the referee and so each of them will be equipped with a highly accurate Hublot timepiece to monitor the passage of time throughout the games.

 

Judging by Mr Biver’s comments this is a partnership that he is both very passionate about and also very proud of, saying that football is “the only language that everyone understands the world over.†Reinforcing how important this new partnership is to the brand it was also announced that Hublot will be the official timekeeper of the 2014 World Cup to be held in Brazil.

No wonder, they'll turn up to the opening of an envelope, if there's any fukking EVENT going, they're into it like a tramp into a dumpster at the back of Asda, same with any celebrity living or dead if they can attach the name Hublot or identify the brand with it, they're on it like flies on 3 day old shit.

 

I hate the company, I hate their damn f'ugly fukk'n product, especially all those 'magical' 'Black' special editions. FFS, one black watch from them looks the same as every black watch they make.

 

And any clunt that buys one must be a good runner, they're doing better than Ben Johnson running away from good taste.

 

Did I say I that I hate Hublot, Carlo Croco'dile' and the Jean that Clawed the Beaver.

Hey get off the fence Baldrick. I sense you have some reservations about Hublot? :paddy_gold:

 

I have similar reservations myself. and about those bastard offspring of Tunisian whores' afterbirths resulting from multiple couplings with a Timex pocket watch (Panerai) and Graham with that ridiculous superstructure which can only be of any use in the art of nosepicking. However the worst, the sin of sins, the design that should have been throttled at birth, has got to be the Deepsea, now on more versions than the pips on JoeyB's shoulder and fuglier than a burst arsehole with that ridiculous rehaut and wide, no wider, bezel. What on earth were Rolex of all people thinking?

 

As for the World Cup, don't get me started.......................

Cricket is a game invented by the English to show their superiority, expecting that the illogicality and arcane rules would defeat Johnny Foreigner's brain, until former colonies proved to be much better at it. They're allowed to win now and again, but lose most of the time. A bit like footie in that respecct then......

 

However Americans are not faultless in this regard. They have taken a girly english game called rounders, called it baseball and play in something called the World Series which only lacks most of the rest of the world. Then there's American football, a girly version of rugby with body armour, illogicality and arcane rules (where did I hear that before....).

 

Don't get me started on basketball and ice hockey - wtf is that all about?

[greg_r 83]

hmm - whatever. I firmly believe that cricket is a complete fucking mystery to everyone...

 

It's also the only game I've ever managed to fall asleep during whilst actually playing it...

Hmm, that sounds more like narcolepsy to me Greg. Have you seen a doctor?

 

You can only understand cricket if you think of it as a game that could have been invented by Monty Python. It is sort of Morris dancing combat.

Yes but you're from Yorkshire so your views don't count. And it's a watch that only its mother could love..........

 

For those others who may not understand, a Yorkshireman is described as a Sctosman with all the generosity squeezed out!

you racist fookers what about my human rights lol

[trailboss99 996]

I wonder how much mazoola Sepp demanded and how much Beaver got him down to

 

You beat me to it. Ludicrous amounts and rather a lot would be the answers.

How many more almost the same special editions is this gunna generate I wonder?

 

 

Col.

[Baldrick 1]

I dunno Col, but if there was ever a company and it's product that was over-rated and over-sold, Hublot are that company, Rolex were the masters of advertising and at least have contributed enormously to the world of horology, but this company have beaten Rolex at the propaganda biz and with what, a 41 year old history, established in the late 60's by Carlo Croco, what was it's claim to horological fame, it put a fookkin' rubber strap on a gold watch and became the darling of the French elite on the Riviera.

 

The company was gasping for breath and the death rattle was sounding when it was rescued by Jean Claude Biver the former sales and marketing director of AP, who came on board and plagiarised Gerald Genta's original design for the Royal Oak, he produced the Big Bang, an inferior design and mediocre product using a standard 7750 ebauche, which, in order to establish some cachet, was offered at a hugely inflated price and given away for publicity purposes to those horologicaly ignorant magpies such as Posh and Becks / name your rap artist here_______________________ et al, result = instant credibility amongst the horologicaly bereft idiotic followers of fashion.

 

S'why we have a range of the same watch with different names and little splashes of colour on the dial, I don't like Rolex, but, and it's a big but, even I have to give them full credit for all the advances they've contributed to the watch industry.

 

Hublot, 'who blow' more like it

 

How many more almost the same special editions is this gunna generate I wonder?

 

No doubt, they'll have a splash of colour representing every country on the dial of lots of 'Speshul Edishons'

[QinetiQ 0]

Nice, that's all what football needed. A bald old man running around blowing a whistle with a 20k watch on his wrist.

 

"... so each of them will be equipped with a highly accurate Hublot timepiece to monitor the passage of time throughout the games" WHAT THE FLIPPIN' HECK?! A highly accurate Hublot timepiece? Since when are electronic watches inaccurate? This is ridiculous...
