Hello All , I seek everyones help in choosing the best source to buy myself a hublot classic fusion or big bang. i like simple watches and my selection amongst the two will only be for the reason of quality of the watch. Please suggest where should i be looking in a decent budget not over the top . DECENT = 350 +/- US

Hi Everyone, I'm trying my damnedest to find one of these bad boys: http://www.ttw-138.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=10936 Unfortunately, Andrew doesn't have them in stock, and there isn't any clear indication that they'll come back for sale anytime soon. Any TD's or classifieds that you know are selling this one? It's particularly difficult because the watch doesn't really have a "name". Any leads are hugely appreciated. Love, Prawn

Alright guys I finally took some proper shots of my HBB and ROO so here ya go! First let me give you my opinion of these pieces first now that I've spent some quality time fiddling with/wearing them. The AP: Easily my favorite visually and functionally of the two. The forged carbon material is amazing to behold in person. Nice and lightweight, very solid fit and finish on everything, and the lume on this is ridiculous! (as pictured) The hands are very legible which makes it simple to tell time during the day or in a pitch black room. Only issue I'm having with it is the strap is too big for me, so while I wait to come up with some XS straps, I punched an extra hole in my existing strap and that works for now. I do eventually need a replacement though because I think I made it a bit too tight, so if you have a spare XS strap for a 44mm ROO (if such a thing exists) let me know! Final Verdict: 10/10 even though I need a smaller strap! The Hublot: Absolutely love this watch! Not too much to report here. Great look, great fit, the Donerix strap Legend fitted to this is gorgeous, albeit not my cup of tea for everyday wear. I ordered some tyre rubber straps online today along with the H screwdriver so I can swap those out as soon as they get here. I can definitely see putting them back in though for a more formal event. Having tried on a genuine, I'm happy to report that this watch is virtually identical in look and feel! The lume is also very good, but not as bright as the AP, it's also a little harder to precisely tell the time on this watch since the hands are so wide. Also I'm not sure how to wind it. The crown feels like I'm winding it when it's pushed all the way in, but I'm unsure if that's what it is. Anyone out there know? Other than that, I have no complaints whatsoever! Final Verdict: 10/10 Both of these pieces are incredible! They both have an unparalleled wrist presence, especially on a small wrist like mine. I haven't had people approach me yet, but I've definitely seen people look from a distance, and they seem pretty impressed haha. They're also very nicely weighted and feel very similar to, if not identical to their genuine counterparts...and they keep great time! I love fiddling with the chrono too! Not sure why, it's just fun Overall I love these watches, Legend is awesome to work with as well. The guy is a wealth of information and knowledge about our fun hobby and I see him as a great mentor and friend to me. Bottom line, I'm totally broke now but couldn't be happier!

Hello everyone, I am new to the site and this is my first post. So i've been searching and doing a little bit of research on the replicas but have been having a difficult time choosing the right one. Any suggestions on where to buy a nice Hublot Big Bang watch? I've noticed a few of the trusted sites are no longer running so I'm not sure where to go. Thanks for the help, I just really want a nice quality replica.

Hey! I've been doing some research looking for a place to find a good quality hublot big bang, and I stumbled across this site and figured you guys would be a great authority on a good quality hublot big bang replica. The max I'm looking to spend is 250, can anyone put me on something good?

Hi guys, been looking around and what really catches my eye is the Ice Bang II. Ive seen a few good ones, but these two are one of the best. I just can't tell the difference between them. Maybe you guys can help me tell the differences between these two? One is called the HBB Evolution Full Ceramic Black (Ceramic Case+Titanium Bezel) http://tswatchltd.com/11775-hb4020fo-hublot-big-bang-evolution-full-ceramic-black-ru-asian-7750-28800bph.html The other one is called the HBB Ice Bang II (feat. a 316 SS case coated with ceramic + Tungsten Bezel) http://tswatchltd.com/8055-hb2420-hublot-ice-bang-ii-black-dial-cer-tung-ru-asian-7750-28800bph.html Could anyone tell me which one is closer to gen? Thanks a million

Hey guys, what do we think about this Big Bang? Kinda want to get it but I want some opinions first. Also, I do real estate, so yes, I can pull off the diamonds. http://puretime-asia.com/product/big-bang-38mm-11-ss-full-paved-diamonds-black-dial-on-black-rubber-strap-miyota9015/

Here is my latest purchase (thx devilseam), really a beauty. I guess it´s a v1/v2, definitely not a v6, but nevermind... I like it much, even with some minor flaws (white DW, blue screws...) because of it´s massive presence on the wrist and the polished, shiny bezel. The dial is very well made, also the clasp. Now waiting for my H-screwdriver to replace the strap with a gen. This watch is for sure a keeper! Thanks for looking!

Hey, just got the QC Pics of my new Hublot V6 from Puretime. What do you think, should i giv them a ok? Regards

Hello community, I search a good Hublot Big Bang, which is near to the GEN. I've seen that, the Hublot Rep's are still good in their quality, very close to to gen. I already looked at trustys shop, but i have few questions. - How good is the quality of Hublot BBs Reps ? (In their "best-editions") - What about the weight? Like gen? - What about GEN Parts? I already read that i can change the parts (like Rolex Sub's). But is this really possible? Are there some Stores to search the Parts? Because i want to buy a GEN Dial, but only then, if the rep is sooo bad. - Do I have to change some parts, or looks it really like Gen? At which parts you can see the Rep? I already find this HBB's, what do you think? - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=8682 (Favorite 2.) - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=10936 - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=7766 (Favorite 1.) - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=9037 - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_381&products_id=8344 Thanks for your answers, and every help! And sorry for my bad english.

I have spoken with Tony from asian7750 and he said this is what the final product will look like. This is a Hublot Big Bang Rose Gold V6. Please let me know if you see something that is off or of concern. Thanks in advance!!!!!!!

Went over to all the Trusted Dealers websites and all of them different prices for a V6 Rose Gold Big Bang. Why price difference? When its from the same factory and the same product? And who should I choose?

Hello guys, I'd like to begin by introducing myself. I'm a watch lover, have owned a few gens (mostly Cartier) over the years, a newbie to the rep world, but am very intrigued by the quality of today's reps compared to gens. *Lengthy story below, bear with me* Here my first journey in this hobby begins: After closely examining and really studying up on good reps, trusted dealers, etc. I decided to make my first rep purchase from Trusty Time. I ordered a Hublot Ice Bang (I believe it was a V6 *noobie alert* with the platinum plated bridges and all) about a month ago now. About two or three days after ordering Andrew contacted me and let me know about the current situation with the factories, and the raids that seem to be plaguing them. He told me the Hublot factory was closed due to these raids and it could take 3-4 weeks for them to get my watch in stock and ready to ship. I told him this was no problem, I could wait. In the meantime, I had been looking at some PAMs and had read that the 111 M from Noob was a pretty good rep so I decided that while I waited for the Ice Bang I would order one of these to entertain myself with. Andrew confirmed it was in stock and a week after the order was placed he sent me QC pics, which I glanced over (noobie mistake) and approved, and then he sent it out. After waiting another two weeks for the delivery to arrive (held up an entire week in customs), I got the watch and absolutely loved it. However, upon further inspection I noticed that it was not an M Series like I had ordered, it was apparently an N, or so the case back reads. I loved the watch anyways, so despite having been sent the wrong Series (partly my fault, didn't notice the N serial in the QC pics) this didn't bother me much. I had read the Ns from Noob were great as well (perhaps better?). Anyways, having learned my lesson I decided that when the QC pics for the Ice Bang arrived I'd inspect them more carefully. They arrived a few hours ago, and I immediately noticed that the strap that it featured in the pics (gummy aligator) was not the one I'd asked for (I wanted the smooth rubber one) so no biggie, I informed Andrew and he said he'd change it. But then I noticed something that worried me. Now, remember I am very new to this so I may be terribly wrong about this but, I noticed that the ceramic case had a matte finish to it on the watch in the QC pics. Now to my understanding, the gen Ice Bang (numerals), be it with the tantalum or tungsten bezel has a kinda shiny/brushed black ceramic case, while the Ice Bang Evolution (stick markers) has the black matte case (like the All Black II). So I believe what I was looking at was kinda a rep hybrid featuring the Dial from the average Ice Bang (with numerals) inside the ceramic case of the Ice Bang Evolution (who's dial is supposed to be stick markers instead of numerals). Needless to say I informed Andrew. He then insisted that the case was correct, even after I sent him a stock QC picture from his website which I believe contradicted this. He then said that, that was the last watch left, that the factory had recently reopened for a couple of days and had been shut down again due to the raids, possibly for another two weeks. He said if I didn't want the watch he would offer me a refund. I took the refund. I may be new at this but my gut and a bit of research led me to believe that the watch wasn't right, not even in rep standards. I am awaiting the refund but I know Andrew is good for it. Well, now that I've told my story, my questions to the seasoned veterans on this board are as follows: 1. What do you make of the mix up with the PAM? 2. What do you think of the issue with the Hublot Ice Bang? 3. How much do you think the raids, lack of stock, etc. influenced the situation with both orders? 4. And most importantly, what trusted dealer can send me a proper Ice Bang V6 now? I've been looking forward to this watch for a month and am now completely lost as to how to get my hands on one.

I want to change the dial of my HBB, and after some googling I find no such tutorial anywhere. So I turn here. I have an H screwdriver and a set of small precision screwdrivers.

Hey guys, this is my first post on the forum- I've been browsing the site for a couple of weeks after I saw an ad for a Hublot big bang in the New York Times. It immediately caught my eye and I decided to google the price and of course it was way out of my price range. That's when I started doing some research and I found out about replicas and I browsed here for a while to find a reputable dealer that I could buy from. Long story short, I decided to go with Watcheden. I placed my order on May 2 and finally received the watch today. After days of checking the USPS tracking site, I am glad to say that I love the watch. I don't know much about watches but it definitely looks the part and feels the part. I think that this purchase will be the first of many! Here are some pictures:

Hi Guys, Thinking about buying this rep for my brothers b-day. What do you guys think? http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/big-bang-44mm-rose-gold-2011-on-black-rubber-strap-hub4104/ Do you think the rose gold will last? They say it's 5mil plated. Do you believe it is water proof? What is your experience? Thanks!

Yesterday I bought my first replica watch, A Hublot Big Bang Limited gray. I really like the feel of the watch, and the looks of it too. I bought it in a shop In Saigon, and since I believed this to be a 400 USD copy, when it is actually a 300 USD copy, I ended up paying a bit to much, but I would never have bought this watch on the internet, but it looks great in real life, so I am still very happy. I have only one issue. The watch is very accurate when sitting on a desk. Or t least i checked it for 9 hour during the night and it was perfect. However when I wear it it runs fast. Walking around with it for 3 hours this morning made it go 5 minutes to fast....after only 3 hours.... It is a replica, and I can accept to have to set the watch now and then, but 5 minutes in 3 hours feels a bit too much. I have searched the forums but not come up with anything on this. Is this what you have to expect, or are there simple modifications that can be made? Maybe the heat here is a problem, and it will slow down going back to a colder climate?
