Another quirk in the system! Weird.....

I also noticed that new Breitling which looks like a Patek homage gets a hell of a lot of love compared to Hublot which is supposedly a copy cat. I think it's perhaps just a good demonstration of the selectiveness of the WIS community and herd thinking

I've been looking at a few of the Skeleton Dial options lately, feel like that would fill a gap in my collection.

May I ask which model yours is?
Hublot Big Bang Unico Perpetual calendar Reference number 406.CI.0170.RX that I absolutely love it, you relay need to see this watch in person to appreciate every detail in it - and I do own PP, AP, Rolex and many other watches.

.. and don’t forget to check out Hublot’s sapphire series of watches! They are uber cool in person. You have to check them out to see for yourself.

The screws are not ideal, considering the price difference between a Cartier and the Big Bang. But the worst thing about Hublot is HOW MANY GOD DAMN LIMITED EDITION RELEASE are they gonna launch each year? Almost every release is a limited edition.
