I am trying to find HBB CF Owners and see in the wild pictures. Anyone have the new CF version that can snap some pictures? I am on the fence.

Just bought one from Toro, will try and remember to post some wristies in this thread when I receive it. I've had many many Big Bangs so I'm hoping this one will be "the one" and I'll end up keeping it lol.

Just received today at work from Toro. Stunning replication, very impressed with the details. I imagine a gen Hublot of this model might have 1/10th better finishing but I'm very impressed!

Thanks man. Trust me, in person this looks way better than quick lunchroom shots I just took. If anyone is on the fence, go for it!

Hey Zoomboy, can you weight it? Curious to know if its lighter than the AP Diver FC.

Unfortunately I don't have a scale that can weigh it accurately. Definitely much lighter than any other Big Bang I've owned but not cheap feeling.

Is it real carbon fiber? Or just a decal? Does it change alot in different lighting? Would love to see an hd video. The gen is very cool

My only concern is the subdials... The gen is smoth and the rep has rings on the subdial.

Same questions, is it real cf and can we see a video in light? Also interested in subdials. Was debating on picking one of these up sometime this summer, they look amazing and would be great if they are real cf

Just wanted to say thanks for the post. I was definitely "on the fence," but just got QC pics of the all carbon and they looked great, so now it's just a matter of time. :thumbup:

i was about place an order for it when my TD informed me this:
"just friend,to be honest,V6 have make it with 44 mm size before,in fact,most of Hub from V6 is 44 mm before,
from last year,all Hub from V6 are 42 mm size,
they only make 42 mm size now,
so I think I must tell you about it first,"

How I wish they make 42mm sizes now. I have smaller wrists and I'd love to have one. But I'm not sure of that's correct. Big bang comes in two sizes, 41mm and 44mm. 44 mm v6 are among the favourites. I haven't seen many 41mm HBB. Neither are them any great. The classic fusion comes in 42mm and 45mm.
