great Hublot, but noisey

[rblippy]

I love my new Hublot Big Bang but I cant stand the rotor noise. I paid $420.00 for the watch new.

Any suggestion how to decrease or eliminate noise>

thanks

You need to grease the rotor bearings!

the rotors on these are not noisy. Problem is I'm not sure what u mean by noisy.

Both my V1 ceramic and St. Moritz Diamond white version / low beat make little noise.

Even genuine Swiss Valjoux 7750 movements make a degree of noise, and the 7750 is notoriously noisy.

so I'm guessing he's sitting in a quiet room. Becoz if u are referring to it being noisy under normal room conditions, you can hardly hear it.

But then I swing the rotor prior to buying the thing.

I had a noisy rotor on the Chopard and oiled it, made it a bit better.

i had an HBB like this.. the "noisy" means not normal

it's a loud whirring sound like a jet's about to take off on your wrist, lol

send it back, i did..

I find my 21.6k to be noisier than my 28.8k. With one good shake, the 21.6k will whirl more than the 28.8k, thus making more noise. Since some HBB now are equipped with 21.6k, it migth be the problem. Chopard also had 21.6k before newest version.

I think so too. Send it back, get a replacement.

very good point.. the OP didn't mention price-range which will tlel us what kind of HBB he got

mine was among the top of the line steel-diamond bezel.. from the "2nd factory" (the ones with the screw down crowns)

...so i knew right away something was wrong because of the way the rotor sounded.. that and the fact that only 2 of the chronos worked

so yea, i sent it back..
