I don't care if its after CNY as long its a good final version at the first release. That would make me a happy man

Yes please. With correct color and dw.

and with LOWER PRICE.


Yes hopefully correct color dial, tachy and DW..... BUT Lower price ?? and in comparison to .... These versions would probably be expensive as I can remember some of the old, not so good versions on Angus going for $858 , so I doubt the new j12 version would be any cheaper unfortunately, unless we're lucky .... especially if they decide to update to the decorated movement too .....

After J12 taps the GP franchise, then the Montoya franchise, then the Rubens Barrichello franchise, then what do they have left... V2s of every model they got wrong?


Then they got a whole new batch to look at and start thinking about, on Jan 19th... SIHH cometh...

But SIHH wont show too many new ROO models... the focus will be on APs other lines.

No one actually knows what will be released at SIHH ..apart from one watch that AP already released pics of...... a concept called the "minute repeater"

No one expected 6 new ROO models last year.... and this year supposedly some of the "old guard " ROO's have been discontinued....so there is hope of new ROO's again ..

Lets see what 2015 SIHH brings .. only 10 days to go

This year is empty pocket year. do you guys understand?? lol

Lots of beautiful reps that cost 750-800 dollars each (+ shipping, new strap). buy 4 reps already $3000!!

I can get a GEN tag heuer. or even a beautiful GEN preowned tag heuer 1887.

not to complain, but the rep is so teasing due high accuracy. hahaha

Yes it seems at first hublot copy ap but later ap copy hublot.

heres why

1) hublot has made white ceramic and later AP follow
2) hublot concept are art of fusion. Combination of materials. But noe we can see ap combing materials too such as forge carbon ceramic and titanium
3) hublot has done open case back since long time ago. Later in 2013-2014 ap follow


Anyway i love both brands. Its good to see many diversity.

I think that it bears repeating that the likelihood of anyone running into someone wearing a gen is pretty darn small, and although everybody obsesses about the little things that the factories screw up, such as shades of color (although I have the Gran Prix RG, so that is not as much of an issue), the fact remains that we are able to buy a rep for $700 when the gen is $70K+ (for the RG). So all in all, it seems like a pretty darn good deal!

As long as J12 throws that beautiful forged carbon on the GP case, like the Bee we have come to love, and gets the dial somewhat right and everything else is improved from the old Noob version, I will be happy with this piece, I'm not expecting 100% perfection, but close to it... Let's hope Angus posts some more pics soon...

Lol. I like Hublot as well. Love their new Big Bang Unico, which I think is more worth it than the 2014 AP ROO at the price. I'd buy the gen. Not their old Big Bang though. I know I might seem like twisted. Haha.
