pitzercody Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I am so stoked to have found this group! I have been in love with the HBB since I first saw it in Robb Report several years ago. Anyway as a novice watch collector I was hoping that some of you might help point me in the right direction as to where to go to find a good quality (both in accuracy and in construction) HBB Replica. I am looking for either the Luna Rossa, Classic Rosie or the All black with the Gold "2". I have checked out Timeshops.net, but wanted to know where else to look and who to talk to. Again, Thank you for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jot9011 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Welcome to RWG. This is without a doubt the best place to find the good stuff. With that said, you have to realize that with any forum, you have to be willing to do a little of the leg-work yourself. Spend some time researching the model you want as there are several grades as well as prices. There is tons of information found here on HBB's and if you spend a little time reading, you'll find the answers to the questions you are asking ALL replicas have flaws and none are perfect, so the best model is the one you are happy with, that contains flaws you can live with and the price you are willling to pay. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSlayer Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Welcome to the forum! Couldnt have said it any better ^^^^^^^^^^ This hobby requires patience and time and lots of reasearch There are so many models of HBB out there on the market, and I believe there are 2 main 'makers' of factories of the high end models of this brand. You need to thoroughly research these differences and then decide which ones you can live with the most, and then opt for that particular model.

hambone Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 The ceramic rose gold HBB I got from Trusty Time is spot on accurate and my favorite watch. It is not cheap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 The largest collections of HBB are from Puretime and Timeshops. And their models do not come from the same factories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
