Both are from 'Hublot' factory, but they are different watches.
Do you like chrono or no chrono? Titanium or steel? Sandwich or sausage dial? Automatic or manual wind?

Both are quite accurate reps. From the display back both have inaccuracies.
Both have colourless AR and good lume.
253 comes with mineral crystal rather than sapphire crystal of gen.
253 isn't a real flyback.

If you can live with the mineral glass crystal only question is which one you like the look of more.

Consider the 005K with a closed caseback and a sausage dial.

as always, choose one of the dealers from the list.
Any one should be able to get what you want.

My vote would be the 219 and 005

there's some new super reps coming out from those factory. Look into them as well.
if not, take COLDI's advice.

Oh man, you are so lucky to be getting into these now. Some excellent reps are just out in the last few months, all within your price-point.

i like no chrono , and do you know where can still get the 005 or 177 ? :thinking:

The 253 and similar looking Luminor Chrono with the domed crystal are the exceptions having mineral glass crystal. The manual wind 177L, 318L, 219L, 005K and others all have sapphire crystal.

It may be that current stocks are sold out.
A 177M is meant to be coming soon.

If 005K is sold out, the 318 is the same but with a Brooklyn caseback.

Most PAM reps have sapphire crystals - it's just the 44mm domed crystals that are usually mineral.

Some of our dealers should still have the 005. You might have to wait for the "new" 177 to be released, though. Both of those watches come with sapphire crystals.

new 177 are said to have some improvements from the last 177 run.
