Hublot Classic Fusion Watches
How do you create a classic? The statement in and of itself shouldn't make sense as classic things develop over long periods of time. Such "instant classics" are merely good designs that appeal to many people. What I am talking about is literally making a bona fide classic in the time it takes most people to simply develop a product. I can't say I fully understand how, but Jean-Claude Biver at Hublot has turned the Big Bang watch line into a classic over the period of just a few years - but he did.In 2004 almost nobody had heard of Hublot.

Sky Dweller potential issue, owners chime in
