Hi
Can anyone explain the major differences between these two watches, and if it is worth the $100 difference?

http://pureti.me/product/big-bang-44mm-full-ceramic-all-black-on-rubber-strap-hub4104/

http://pureti.me/product/big-bang-44mm-full-ceramic-black-magic-on-black-rubber-strap-a7750/

I see there are slight differences on the back movements, the second having darker screws.

The more expensive is a V6 with more accurate crystal, dial, date wheel and movement (of course).
The cheaper is a H maker
People are willingly paying 100$more for the V6
I got V6
Up to you

Hi Ale, I saw on Toro site (before went down) a new one called v6.5...
For my eyes identical with this one - http://pureti.me/product/big-bang-evolution-44mm-ss-black-dial-ceramic-bezel-on-black-rubber-strap-hub4104/
There are new upgrades on HBB line-up? There is new v6.5 models to come?


I just sent an invoice request to this TD for this watch (I have a credit from a previous purchase). Anyone here get this watch from PT in the last few weeks? I hope the AR looks good, that's about my only concern.

Its an awesome watch man. I actually just sold mine to a Gen Rolex dealer I work with here in dallas. He was so impressed with the quality that he had to have it. He swears that even most hublot dealers would have a hard time spotting the watch as a rep unless they saw the clear caseback. And even then, unless they were comparing it to a gen they would be hard pressed to tell. Checknout these pictures. The Rose Gold is my 2010 HBB. The SS is the same watch you are ordering.

I definitely will be ordering another. Honestly this one is great right out of the box. Even the strap and buckle are amazingly close to gen. Only real difference is the texture one the edge of the ceramic bezel. And again, not noticeable unless you are comparing side by side.

I have yhe stainless and I love it, the only thing is that the rotor is noisy, but not a big deal.

Thanks man, you have been posting some good stuff here in the Hublot community. I completely love your RG. The contrast between the gold & black with just a hint of red is aesthetically perfect! It really catches my eye over the SS, but for once in my life i'm gonna do the practical thing and get the "less pimp" SS version so I can wear it in almost any situation.

Thanks for the info.

I have just seen these models
I have asked Toro about this matter an hope to get some answer tomorrow
Anyway if they are improved version the name V6.5 is not correct because V6 is the "name" of maker
The correct version name would be V6 V2
Just my opinion

Can anyone please tell me the 90 dollar difference between

1. http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_280&products_id=9425

and

2. http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_280&products_id=1386

the 2nd one dsnt seem as glossy with the pattern or am i wrong?
if its ONLY the sapphire glass and the rest are identical then i would definately go with the first one.
Also does ttw provide you with box etc?

Just spent the two days reading this thread (unbelievable .. i got so engrossed)

Wanted to thank everybody for educating this n00b in the finer watches known as Hublot!!

Special thanks to Ale and Guru.

only 1 question, is there a source for the H screwdriver in north america ... based on what i read, you would need the screwdriver before the watch!!

Cheers!!

You will need and specific H screwdriver
I recommend you a real "H" screwdriver non an adapted "V" screwdriver in order to not danage the delicate H screws
Puretime sells a very good H screwdriver:

I've seen some screwdrivers on ebay.com for about 25$ plus shipping, but i really don't remember if they were true H screwdrivers or just the V ones adapted to take the H. Maybe you can keep your eye on ebay.com
