In this 18k red gold case, Hublot http://www.modserap.com/ offers the Big Bang with either this "silver-plated" dial or a slate-colored dial. We prefer the lighter tone given that it feels more "classic." The watch is available with the same two dial colors in a steel case as well. The dial details are well done, but we've come to expect that from Hublot http://www.modserap.com/breitling-replica-australia-for-sale.html. Note the slightly recessed sub dials and beveled edge around the date window. These little elements are extremely important because these days it isn't enough to have a nice dial, but you have to have a multi-level dial. Even with applied hour markers, the dial would be too flat, so brands need to look for clever ways of adding depth to a dial, but not disturbing legibility or calling too much attention to the various layers on a dial.
Over the case is a sapphire crystal meant to look like vintage acrylic crystals. This means that the top is mostly flat, but the edges are softly curved down. It does help make the hublot replica watch look a bit more "classic," but still extremely modern when it comes to materials. While we like vintage watches, it is difficult to recommend vintage watches in a lot of instances because many of them simply were not made as well as watches today, this is especially the case when it comes to cases, crystals, and dials. Then again, new watches are often much more expensive.
To many 'non watch' people, the Big Bang looks like an ordinary gold or steel watch with a conservative character. You can show them otherwise by turning the watch over and showing them the movement that is visible through the sapphire exhibition window. The movement in the Big Bang is great looking, but has a unique visual style that in our opinion sits somewhere between Swiss and German mechanical movements. That shouldn't be a surprise though as Hublot is located in Schaffhausen, which is in Switzerland, but near Germany. It is a unique location for Swiss watch making as most of the Swiss watch industry is located in the French, versus German-speaking parts of the country.
The Hublot caliber 89361 is an automatic chronograph movement that contains some interesting points of interest to movement lovers. The movement itself has a high-end industrial feels that appears more machine-like than decorative. I actually like the finishing on the movement and the prominent use of large gears and machined surfaces. You certainly get a confident feel looking at it, and the level of detail is intriguing to say the least. The movement operates at a modern 4Hz and has 68 hours of power reserve coupled with the Pellaton winding system in the automatic rotor.
