The screw alignment is not why Hublot is disliked by WIS! However, to be fair, I dislike the Royal Oak and RM as well. Still, I can understand the Royal Oak and possibly RM, even though I'd never personally buy any of them. The Santos isn't my thing either but I appreciate the history.

I'd debate that. Look at any Hublot review article or video and there are people in the comments upset about the screws not aligning and with comments along the lines of "why can't they even align the screws on such an expensive watch". But you never see the same on Cartier articles

Cartier has so much more going for it than Hublot. Cartier is class.

.. 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.
