Hublot Big Bang Black Magic

Was meaning to do this for a while now, but I couldn't take the picture I wanted without borrowing a buddy's extension tubes.

I have to say, setting up the lighting is extremely difficult and time consuming.

Anyways, this is my VERY FIRST replica watch: Hublot Big Bang Black Magic Full Ceramic Ultimate Edition.

I'm only happy with one picture out of the hundreds I must have taken.

Here it is... love the watch... I'll add more to this if I happen to take one that I love...



UPDATED NEW PICTURES!!
So I took more pictures of my Hublot, found the logo on some random website and incorporated it into my photo to make it look more like a product shot!!

Great Pic & great watch!

You might want to tighten those H screws a bit (as far as the one at 2)...

I've learnt the lesson the hard way :-)

Very nice! Great pic.

I think a similar HBB or King Power is on the cards for my next rep.

Is this accurate to the Gen with no carbon fiber effect on the dial?

I don't have a carbon fiber effect on mine, but I know there is one version that has the carbon fiber.

In terms of being accurate from the genuine, there are a few differences:

1) the crystal on the genuine is slightly raised from the bezel
2) the datewheel is sunken in too much on the replica.

Other than that on the front, it's pretty hard to tell it apart from the genuine, from what I've heard.

As for the back, the tells are a bit more obvious:

1) Rotor for the V1 versions are decals, not engraved.
2) Saw-like rotor on the rep, not on the gen
3) No Hublot logo on the bridge.
4) The adjustment for the movement on the gen is different from the rep.

Thanks for the advice, my buddy happened to have the H screw with him so I was able to tighten all my screws (I have them all lined up too, dunno if that is lame haha).

You're right, some of the screws were quite loose.... scary.

right i got all that.. order the crystal from txcollector and ur good... and i think it's just the date font that's off, not the position though i could be wrong. I think the new V1 rotors are engraved but it's incorrect (too think) and you can order a V2 rotor from replicamake for $20 or so. and you can get the correct movement from domi.

anyways what i'm asking is does the gen have a carbon effect on the dial or not?
