Confr��rie Horlog��re Hublot Presents “Liberty”
When formerly high-flying Swiss movement manufacturer BNB Concept sunk under the weight of its accounts receivable in January, Jean-Claude Biver swung into action, bringing BNB’s managing director Mathias Buttet and about 30 of his watchmakers to Hublot. Biver also acquired BNB’s entire machine base. These decisive steps place Hublot among the few brands that can independently design and produce even the most complex movements in-house. The group’s first new creation was shown at Baselworld. While at BNB, Buttet launched Confr��rie Horlog��re, a brand designed to allow talented young watchmakers to create the timepieces of their dreams. This concept will continue under the banner Confr��rie Horlog��re Hublot, and at Baselworld the group unveiled “Liberty” or Autant en emporte le temps, a reinterpretation of the pocket watch in the form of a gun cartridge, housing a tourbillon. The piece can be worn on a bracelet or as a pendent. Technical specifications appear

ETA black bay vs In-house
I was just wondering the other day what makes the ETA black bay in black so sought after. Is it that it looks very similar to a vintage black bay with its smiley text and all? More serviceable? More proven/ tried and true? Maybe it's that people hate the purely ornamental rivets on the new bracelet? Im just curious and I think these cover most of the reasons but maybe there are some ETA BB owners out there that have more to addSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
