The HBB seems to be the watch that is defining what is, and what is not acceptable to the community in terms of price VS quality.
There is simply no apparent quality of workmanship that justifies the additional cost for these watches. I find this unfortunate, because the HBB is truly an extraordinary watch.
For me, unless its solid gold, I am not spending over $300-400MAX on a replica watch. If I had $500+ to be spending on a watch, I'd start looking at gen's, new or used.
I realize this is not the thread for this discussion, but I typed it up and i'm hitting "reply". I appologize to the OP.
