Hublot Limited Edition Supports Medical Research
Hublot has teamed with the oldest automobile club in the world – the Automobile Club de France (ACF) – to create a limited edition timepiece to benefit the Fondation ICM (Institute for Cerebral and Medullary Disorders). This is the first partnership with a major brand for the ACF, which was founded in 1895. One of the founding members of the Fondation ICM is Jean Todt – a name well known to auto racing enthusiasts. Mr. Todt is the president of the FIA (F��d��ration Internationale de l'Automobile) – the governing body for Formula 1. The FIA is headquartered at the Automobile Club de France. Together, Hublot and the ACF developed the Aero Bang Drive ACF, a black chronograph with the ACF’s colors. A black ceramic case and bezel surround a skeleton dial, through which one can glimpse the movement beneath. A contribution from each watch sold will be donated to the fundamental and clinical research carried out by the ICM. The edition is limited to 250 pieces.Techn
As an investment is a new Diver okay?
I don't know much about the serial numbers for AP divers but I am about to close on a new AP Diver. Do I need to ask what the serial number is or anything like that or will this new watch be fine? I don't think I'm going to be trading and selling any time soon or buying for an investment. I just like the watch but of course I want to get a watch with a story if possible.Let me know your thoughts.
42mm ROO with ceramic bezel
It does exist apparently! Doha edition in titanium 100 pieces. Anyone any details?
LOVE mine
What a beast! As much as I wanted to like the watch the exhibition case back ruins the fit imho. It could have been sooo perfect at ~42mm and with a solid case back!Why Omega!? You managed to stuff that 9300 into the less-cumbersome '57 speedy (41.5mm). Speaking of, I like the '57 speedy but not the PCLs and again with the bubble exhibition case back! That being said it does wear better than the 9300.At first I tried to convince myself that the size was okay and then glaced back into the case to see old reliable 3570.50 in all its warm hesalite glory... All of the sudden the 9300s weren't acceptable anymore.My love for the 3570.50 was rekindled and should be back on my wrist within the next two weeks. In a sense it was a blessing as I’ll be saving enough to buy the 3570.5 outright again. Just have to find that right one at a good price now.
Does two tone work in gym shorts?
I'm on the hunt for my next watch. So far I've had a datejust 116234 but it was too small, a bluesey 16613 which I really liked but prefer the newer model, and a BLNR which I really liked but have an itch for two tone. My main issue is that I primarily wear gym shorts but I really enjoy a two tone watch. Is it strange to wear a two tone with gym shorts? If so, what is a good watch to wear? I've sold all my watches and I'm beginning to think my only solution is to have two watches as I may never be happy with just one. I'm currently eyeing a 116613 and 126331.
