This is another case that I went to Hublot at IFC last Wednesday 19 Oct for this repair.

She took me two minutes to fill in some of the apps. and they took my watch. I asked how much.

They told me is about HK$5,000 to $6,000!

Their staff's professionalism proven today when the official invoice came indicating that service charge is $4,800 and replacement of hour and minutes hands is $625, crystal change is $1,430.

Total charges is $6,855. 

Hands and crystal changes is subject to me... I will change them.

This is another 5 stars super good service. 

They are efficient, 10 minutes to check the watch, 3 days to send me official quotation and the price is sweet!!

Hublot is getting very popular and gaining more market share in Asia Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore...

Thank you Hublot and your friendly staff!

Hublot Boutique 2017 Novetly Event



Invited by Maxime, the Boutique manager of Hublot Hong Kong to have a wonderful tour to the watches at Hublot Today.

Me, being a watch lover and Blogger have brought some of the members of HKWF Club there.

MP-05 "LaFerrari




Hublot defied every convention in 1980, when Carlo Crocco created the gold Hublot watch with the first natural black rubber bracelet in the history of watch making. It has now become the inspiration for a watch making style famous everywhere.

Started with Classic (37mm), migrating to Big Bang (44mm),
Classic Fusion (45mm), transforming into larger format of King Power (48mm), then Big Bang Unico (45mm).
There are all the series created by Hublot, the art of Fusion!



First unveiled Hublot LaFerrari in Sapphire 

Unveiled in 2013, the MP-05 "LaFerrari", created as a tribute to the eponymous supercar, showcased its unique and ultra-complex architecture. The lines of the MP-05 LaFerrari are the result of close collaboration between the designers and watchmakers working on the Hublot movement and Ferrari's design director, Flavio Manzoni. The movement itself was fully designed, developed and produced by the Hublot Manufacture engineers and watchmakers.




A record-breaking technical feat. Its tourbillon boasts an impressive 50-day power reserve – thanks to its 11 series-coupled barrels set in a spine formation down the centre of the watch. Its movement broke the record for the highest number of components for a Hublot movement to date – 637 in all. Boasting a futuristic design, the construction showed off the bold shape of its movement, even in its original version.

While the original design of the MP-05 “LaFerrari” was created to show off the beauty of its movement, its alter ego – with its case carved out of sapphire – is a movement which appears to be literally suspended in mid-air. All the details of this record-breaking movement can be admired from all angles. With the MP-05 “LaFerrari” Sapphire, Hublot takes us into a supernatural world. A material presence which is almost intangible.










With the MP-05 “LaFerrari” Sapphire, Hublot is writing a new chapter in the history of the brand. The three-dimensional construction of the case middle, in sapphire, provides an exceptional setting for the movement. The movement can now be admired from every angle. It appears to be suspended in mid-air in this bespoke setting carved from sapphire.

In fact, this movement finally has the sculptured bodywork it deserves! An ambitious project. The sapphire case middle is composed of 7 components machined from 7 blocks of sapphire and involved over 600 hours work. Carving the case's ultra-complex architecture out of sapphire using 3D machining presented a further challenge. The result of 18 months' development weighs, a 53.5 grams case on the wrist.









Only Limited to 10 pieces, this is No. 09, the only piece happened to be seen in Hong Kong Today. Those lines on the case is actually the transparent tape that was used to protect the watch.
Price is HK$3,970,000  approx.





Special mini electrical winder for wind up the 50 days power at the end of the watch! Amazing tool! I believe it is a free accessory when you buy the "LaFerrari" as it may take you half an hour to wind up the power plant of the watch by hand manually.

 


With its new Manufacture Piece (MP), Hublot is pushing back the boundaries in terms of multi-axis tourbillons. The MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis is thus the result of a powerful idea: to provide a maximum of visibility on the tourbillon—and its fascinating double rotation—by designing a fine watchmaking movement devoted to this objective, and then creating an original case that highlights the 100% manufacture calibre. Here, the function defines the form. This perfectly reflects the prevailing philosophy in the design of all of Hublot’s “MPs”, namely to develop an exclusive movement dedicated to a function and to design specific external parts to highlight this motor.
“With our Manufacture Pieces, we are taking the expression of our watchmaking savoir-faire very far and making the most of it to give each watch a specific aesthetic”
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot

This Hublot is paved with a lot of diamonds, and I am sure you don't need to tell the time as no one will really need to read the time.  HK$3,950,000.





This is something I like and I am thinking that the price is also very affordable for a working class like I. Very heavy piece of solid gold to house the beautiful movement. It tells you the Month, Day, Date and the Moonphase, a very Classical approach of an contemporary brand of Hublot!





A collaboration between Pied De Poule, Rubinacci (Italian Tailor) and Hublot to create this authentic fabic "Rubinacci "Prince of Wales" suit.... a very unique and beautiful piece like no others.  A typical vibrant yet classic dress watch.

Just reached HK yesterday after BaselWorld. New Hublot with the case made of Sapphire! In Blue


In Red

Thanks for the invitation and we are really open eyes to see so many glamorous luxury watches like the MP-09. And MP-05 with sophisticated design by adopting new Swiss watch manufacturing technique with innovative technologic achievement.

Sometimes it is needed to consider to change, by wearing watch of the contemporary design on the alternate days!
Probably it will make my life more interesting and less boring!

Hublot made its name 30 years ago when it became the first Swiss watch luxury brand to fuse precious metals with functional rubber, sparking a revolution for material innovation and aesthetics.
In 2004, Mr Jean-Claude Biver - gave Hublot a great new boost and revolutionized watchmaking with the creation of the "Big Bang", the multiple award winning chronograph with a contemporary and elegant design, which marked the start of the spectacular success of the brand.
Big Bang Gold

Geneve Super Rare Limited Edition Stainless Steel Automatic Mens Watch with hand crafted of Emblem of the United Arab Emirates
Today, we have a Mint Unused stainless Steel Automatic Men’s Watch with a hand craft Emblem for the United Arab Emirates. Believe this is a special gift for those Celebrity visit The Country.
The emblem of the United Arab Emirates (Arabic: شعار الإمارات العربية المتحدة‎) was officially adopted in 1973. It is similar to the coats of arms and emblems of other Arab states. It consists of a golden falcon (Hawk of Quraish). The falcon had a red disk which shows an Arab sailboat in its interior. The disk is surrounded by a chain. The falcon holds with its talons a red parchment bearing the name of the federation in Kufic script.
On March 22, 2008, the emblem was modified. The main change was that the Arab sailboat was replaced by the UAE flag and seven stars representing the seven Emirates of the federation.
Press a switch at the snug of the watch will release the spring loaded Cover OPEN to display the beautiful dial, with a sweeping second hand, Date at 3 o’clock potion and MDM automatic at 6 o’clock position. There is a sapphire on top of the watch proof case to ensure the water resistant to 3 ATM. Automatic movement with final adjustment done by Hublot.
This is a watch of Mystery as everyone would Wait to see what is inside the watch, and The Emblem would tell you are special agent of the Arab Army official.  
A rare Watch that would not have more than 50 pieces made. And This is a Mint one that you will admire, who would be resist to have the hand crafted Emblem on top of this Swiss great Watch.

From the Emblem. this watch was dated 2008, and butterfly buckle on special silicone rubber which would  not cause any skin allegry. An Extra brand new Silicone strap is included.
Now I offer only HKD$18,000 to the one who is interested in this watch.
