We know that Hublot would never give admit to "stealing" Gerald Genta designs for their Big Bang...

But this is the limit!

It was introduces early this year but it just got my attention;

the original

Hublot SUCKS!!!!

dddrees · 6 October 2011, 08:31 PM

They got the sub dials wrong.

capote · 6 October 2011, 08:37 PM

And the people who buy Hublot should be prosecuted for bad taste.

Darlinboy · 6 October 2011, 08:37 PM

That is one fugly watch.

mikkolopez · 6 October 2011, 08:40 PM

Chris B · 6 October 2011, 08:41 PM

x2!! I don't dislike the look of many watches, but the Hublots just don't do anything for me....to me they look like unrefined AP ROO's...at almost the same price....

Horses for courses I guess....

SkyKing31 · 6 October 2011, 09:39 PM

I have never cared for Hublot

Keeperoftime · 6 October 2011, 10:46 PM

Hublot is an awesome brand. BUT The rolex version of this is horrific as is the Hublot.

No, that's not really a good excuse.

Watch Professor · 6 October 2011, 11:11 PM

The Hublot makes the Daytona look good.

Shelby-villian · 6 October 2011, 11:24 PM

Imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.

Check out the Baume & Mercier Riviera. Looks like a familiar design?

Things that make you go.....yeeeessshhh...

The one that should get prosecuted is the buyer.

RRGHOST1 · 7 October 2011, 02:39 AM

Hublot sponsor my team Manchester United,but i do not like their designs one bit,as nice as they are supposed to be.

gwalker · 7 October 2011, 04:05 AM

Some of their SS models are very nice IMO. If they are going to seal a Rolex design why not be the ugliest one Rolex makes...

x2... the Big Bang ceramic/steel and black magic chronos are very nice, but a bit too steep for modified ETA, in my opinion. I think they are more derivative of the Royal Oak Offshores (which I guess are also derivative of Genta) than Rolex.

Hublot and Rolex are tied at the ugly garish end of the line IMO.

scrog10 · 7 October 2011, 04:14 AM

I agree it looks like Hublot have copied Rolex hideous furry watch.
But why have they put up a mirror image. Are they suggesting they have left and right handed models. The writing and numbers are reversed.

Snowbound · 7 October 2011, 04:26 AM

if you steal something nobody wants, is it still stealing?

Captain Kirkwood · 7 October 2011, 04:31 AM

How dare they copy such an iconic and tasteful design as the Leopard Daytona!
