Jawo Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Believe it or not, I haven't got a BCE in my collection. I am looking to buy a new watch and think I have narrowed it down to the Hublot Palladium or BCE. Is A&J's the best version or do you recommend another?
tomhorn Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 I know there are many opinions on the subject of BCE's but mine is the v3 with the graphite dial. Each version has small things wrong with them but I think this one is the best of the bunch. I'm sure any of the dealers can source one, so pick your dealer and order away.
rogerthat Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Most important thing to look for / demand that it has is the upgraded datewheel. Some dealers will call this V3, others V2 with upgraded datewheel. Unfortunately I do not think all color dials are available with it, but I could be wrong. The standard datewheel sucks and finding a good lello one is a pain, so this really is most important. I would even get a color that was not my top choice for the datewheel aspect. Or troll the FS threads for one with a working lello datewheel.

triplehd Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Wow - didnt realize that they fixed the missing tick at 10.
Dave123 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 That models been around a while. I have not checked Josh's BCE selection in a long time,i see he now has FG versions with double AR and upgraded DW....tempting,might have to go back to my 'bling king' roots now...

Always pay extra for tracked shipping. Pay an extra $10 to the vendor to ship back the return watch to you express. That way the package will be expedited and always trackable.
Guru1 Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 got mine from Precious Time in the UK, great watch
