You are really killing me, there are different versions out, some have black ceramic, some are in ss
for example the 44 mm big king was introduced at baselworld with ss bezel insert and ss second hand,
now there are just a few gen pics available and the insert is black ceramic with red second hand.
I have also seen one gen pic with ss hand and black ceramic inlay.
I believe Hublot is doing this on purpose, just to confuse the rep industry. For sure, the gen pic which I post here is not
available. It is the same with the AR, it is not always the same!

What do I pray, get the rubber, it feels gen and you can wear the watch 24 h..
Is nobody listening to me?
Just ask your dealer to ship you one, should be around 40 usd

Please note that I'm not saying the gummy is confortable.
I just say that I LIKE the gummy... LOL
Anyway I think you are wearing your strap very short, So it is very pressed !!
I have HBB V6 SS/SS with gummy and for me it is as confortable as my other 3 HBB all with rubber. Just a personal or taste question
ALE
Very nice watch, one of my favorite Hublot's. Looks like you have a nice dial cutout too, enjoy!

fyi,I have checked the hole pattern and it is different between the rubber and gummy.
for example, the last 2 holes are free on my configuration for my wrist.
On rubber it feels comfy, on gummy it is to short and after 2 hours I am getting sick
of it.
So on my opinion it is the pattern of the holes. I still have some old straps and I
will put some new holes between the other holes and see if I can proof this.

guru, are you meaning that if you make new (intermediate) holes in a gummy it would be more comfortable??

Ale, yes, you are correct. The problem that HBBs are not comfortable is,
the strap is too short. Then the clasp will cut into your arm. If you move the clasp
into the next 2 holes, most of the time the strap will be to wide. So the middle
would be fine. I have no problems with the v6 rubber straps, as soon as I use
the gummy, I get problems after some time. I put the gummy over the rubber
and found out, the holes of the gummy start earlier and that means, the strap
is too short.
I will use one of my straps next week and drill two new holes between the existing holes,
then I will let you know how it feals.

OK thanks guru
I had asked you this question because I had noted in my straps the same issue but opposite.
Really, It is a wrist size question and a different hole pattern in the two strap types:
For me the gummy is Ok in size and I would need an additional hole for the rubber. LOL

opcorn:I would like to ask someone who recently bought HBB Black magic II v6 if they corrected the wrong caseback (limited edition text is wrong on the caseback)?

The watch you are talking about is not a V6. The BM V6 has the right caseback, you are talking about the Big King 48 mm

Sorry, was talking about http://www.puretimewatch.com/produc...evolution-black-magic-on-gummy-strap-hub4104/
Black magic...
I saw that in new batch (1 month ago) the caseback was updated with Limited Edition sign...

Look for yourself... If anyone got HBB v6 Black magic this month please share this info, if you have caseback with or without LIMITED EDITON text.

It is not the first time that this happens !!!
In the post #794 you can see two very curious QC pics with different casebacks and second with engraving. (LIMITED is not clear but if you make zoom it exists)
http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showpost.php?p=948869&postcount=794
I think that, as guru said, they have used casebacks from ABB and ABG.
