Of course , we're talking about both "hublot factory" models that are supposed to have same/similar quality..

So... Which is better? / Differences?...

1-Sandwich dial on 177 or sausage dial on 318/005 ?
-Is there any difference in lume or something... Which looks better?

2-Titanium case of 177 or polished steel of 318/005 ?
-Which one is more ressistant to scratches? Heavyer? Closed tone to the gen?...

3-Backcase... Firence 005? Brooklyn Bridge 318? or Display Caseback 177?

4-Crown.. Any difference? Anything to say?



And the most important thing.. Is it worth to have them both?? I mean.. If you have a 318L, Can you see big differences between them or are mostly the same tone , shine and everything? would it be like having the same watch repeat?....

Well.. All of us have seen pictures but I'd like to know the owners opinion.

Thanks!

I have both 177L and 005K, couldn't be happier ...
My personal preference is the 005, mainly due to the closed case-back ;)

I have both 177L and 005K. I really like the 177L a lot, something nice about the Ti case. However, the 005K is a little dressier with the stainless. Lume is great on both, it really comes down to personel preference i guess

They are both unavailable at the moment so you have time to ponder.

That's why I'm asking ... I'm going to get the 288K and 286J and I wanted to get the new 177M or 005/318 when they rise.... But I can't decide.

For now I think I'll go for the 177M... Maybe in the future the 318 too.. (just maybe... That's why I want to know if it's worth to have them both or are just the same. ).

Thnx!!

I have both. I use the 005 when I dressed up and the 177 when I dressed more casual... Love both though...
