Was thinking about getting a hublot classic fusion crono but couple my buddy say there kinda a bad investment wanted to see what you guys think

lig · 8 September 2015, 02:38 PM

Your buddy is 100% correct.

locutus49 · 8 September 2015, 02:54 PM

I'd get a G-Shock: they look kinda similar.

Fredrik · 8 September 2015, 04:57 PM

If you really like it, will wear it and have no plans of reselling then get one. But buy used! There is no investment value in modern watches with a few exceptions.

SpunkyQ8 · 8 September 2015, 06:08 PM

I'd have to agree with ur friends

PJ S · 8 September 2015, 06:10 PM

If you're worried about residual value, just buy whatever you fancy pre-owned, assuming you can't obtain a healthy discount on a new one.

Watches are not investments.

I do not care for any Hublot watch at all.

ceconomakis · 9 September 2015, 02:25 AM

The group LVMH and Mr. Biver have created a watch based on marketing. Now they are coming into their own with in-house movements, but to some it has no traditional and no depth but it is a good watch and it is building a strong following. That said, Compare to VC or AP or PP, and it is non existent.
No long term resell value.

Unless you are going to keep it forever, aim for a deep discount or buy used to minimise the resale hit.

Wacker23 · 11 November 2015, 02:27 AM

Overpriced

wayneside · 30 November 2015, 02:56 AM

Get a Big Bang Steel Ceramic

Definitely try to find a deal on a brand new one if possible!

If you really like it.. Then buy it! Your money, your watch. Period

I sold a 2014 Seamaster GMT to fund my new Rolex GMT2.. And I still miss that watch like a good old girlfriend that you let go. I wish I could keep them both.. Quality, time accuracy and depreciation wise the Rolex wins hands down but I still miss it =(

A guy from work has a Big Bang Ceramic and I have to confess that after having a good look at it... I found it to be not as ugly as I thought.

I'm a classic kind of guy: submariner, GMT2, navitimer, speedy professional and Portuguese and started thinking what is about the watch that I like... Probably the carbon fibre "bling"?

I love cars and one of my favourite previous cars was an AMG black series... Maybe that's why I like the watch.

I wouldn't buy one now, I'm searching for a limited edition Speedy, but could buy a second hand one but if I get it for a very good price.... Or I'd buy the omega Seamaster GMT again...

Mind you, Dwayne gets paid to wear Hublot.

Passionata · 30 November 2015, 06:12 AM

Biver is a great chap Hublot isn t a great watch.

jrs146 · 1 December 2015, 03:53 AM

I'd pass. If you like the look perhaps look at the AP ROO line.

There's a guy I see each summer in Ocean City, MD, his condo is right across the street. He wears his Hublot as his 'beach watch', has it on most days, and he's on the beach every day all summer long. Looks good, big, chunky, tech-y. If you like that, get one.

Gasoil4ever · 2 January 2016, 04:17 AM

Not being rude to anyone it is for me the quintessential watch of "new rich with no watch culture"

I see them often on people who made their money quickly... Rappers, soccer players, etc.

For that kind of money I would buy anything else but Hublot, unless it is s deal you can not pass (price of a G Shock or Hamilton Khaki).
