Hublot Watches Is Growing Up + Video
Jean-Claude Biver speaks like a proud father discussing his baby Hublot. He remarks on how the brand has acquired more space, and is only getting more in the future. Biver isn't on everyone's "I love this guy" list, but he is a really good? watch company head, and he gets how to run a European luxury watch company. If LVMH is smart, they just leave him to do what he wants to do. Oh, and in the video, is it just me or does Biver look and sound genuinely annoyed at the questions and/or the interviewer?I've said both good things and bad things in the past about Hublot. While I really most of their watches, they are on a long easy ride on the derivative train. Everything basically looks a like with color changes. "Hey, let's make this watch black and nowgreen! We will call it something that reminds people of other things they like! Like apples, or The Big Apple! Cause its the Big Bang - Genius!"

Seamaster thoughts
As you may know, I recently sent off my favourite speedmaster pro for a service, and I've been left with my seamaster as a daily wearer. It's the first time in a while I've just worn one watch. And I'm impressed I've worn it for just over a month, which included gym sessions, swimming, running, moving twice (business and home!) and pretty everything else I threw at it.... including a few collisions with doors And it still looks and feels great.I'm happy with the accuracy too, just over 30sec fast since I set it over a month ago.Now, I must admit.... I still prefer the looks of the speedy, and the fact that it wears a bit bigger is a big plus (no guesses what my next watch will be ) However, the bracelet on this one is solid as a rock. Apart from the clasp, which is somewhat of a scratch magnet, it wears great, is comfortable and never too heavy.So, overall, very happy! If anyone is considering one of these, go for it.
