That's my favorite Hublot, but on a gummy strapFifty fathoms - noob v1

It’s a nice watch, thanks- the watch in general Recieves a lot of hate lol- kinda a douchebag watch- you got a pic of the gummy strap, maybe I’ll change it
ATM, (and yet to receive them, but they are en-route), I would have to say these 2 since they are the closest detail wise and also have the fully functinal original fitment Ronda Mvt albeit maybe a clone ....

I know you probably know more than I regarding this, but for the benefit of noobs reading :-
They feel very good, I don't buy "precious metal reps" becuase in the past I did (20 yrs ago) and they always felt "light" compared to Gen, also plated and to some extent wrapped items would degrade after a short peiod of wrist time.
What I have found latterly, is that on the mid tier pieces the looks and bracelets etc have come on exponentially over the years, many feel almost indistinguishable including these TAG's.
Regarding the cheaper stuff, well we have to remember they are just that, expect cheap movements, expect tinny bracelets, expect date windows and sometimes sub dials off (due to mvt choice) and expect some small details to be off especially when magnified.
FWIW I am learning new stuff every day here, despite having been into Watches since I was around 11 yrs old, and I'm now 62 in a few weeks.
Amusing memory that came back to me a week or so ago ...........
I remember going on a school trip to Europe, parents gave "Daily" pocket money to the school staff, who dished it out to the pupils each morning.
All the other kids spent most of theirs on fizzy drinks and sweets
I came back with about 5 new watches from the various markets in the towns

It’s just nice to see a photo of a Hublot without a cock in it too.
Exactly the same as Gen, amazing with jubilee bracelet cant fault it
Sounds appealing enough, might have to investigate further!

The best rep of all time was the fabled "1:1 Cartier Santos XL with gen mvt". It has to be the best because it was, as far as can be determined, all gen parts acquired from the factories making said parts for Cartier.

They were on sale for only a few months were around a grand with box and papers when the average rep was $250.That's absolutely insane. Wow
