My new Hublot 4000m Carbon Blue

Please note the watch looks huge but in reality is not that big. For anyone wondering or would like a reference my wrist is 7.25 inches and the lugs do not overhang at all. Cheers

Damn dude. Sorry to break it to you, but it really is that big.

But if you love it, rock it. I got 6.5" wrists, and I was wearing around the Omega POC, PloProf, Panerai Subs...

I think it's a pretty unique Hublot. :thumbsup:

Hi Matt,

Yeah it looks huge in these pics but it isn't as large as it would seem even though the 4000m is of course a substantial watch. For some reason I love the Oceanographic series (well I better since I now own 3 of them) :) You're correct it is a pretty unique Hublot and if I may say so (super biased of course) it is badass.

"30ish years of martial arts and I've actually had the honor of training lots of LEO, spec ops and even SEAL team 6 on base, fitness training, not martial arts, but still the coolest thing I've done.

Full on egg head corporate job and I fly quite a bit so I'm really looking forward to adding to my collection of TSA friendly self defense tools. I have amcouple tactical pens, but I want to up the game and get into some custom stuff. Been watch obsessed for a while but this seems more fun.

Thanks for letting me play! "

Great thread! A lot of drooling over here...

To complete the box, there are a few pieces lacking. ;)

Image
Pre-Moon Speedy 105.012-66 on original 1039 bracelet ("essential")

Image
Breitling Co-pilot "Yachting" ref. 7650, ca. 1969 ("rare")

Image
Seamaster 300 165.024 on original 1535 bracelet ("grail")

This sums it up from the Norwegian jury... :popcorn:

Great watches Arne. Breitling is super cool.

Hi Mark :salute: Lovely Speedie..

My contribution.. the last Autavia GMT model Heuer made, a c1983 11063 GMT, Cal. 12.. the watch came from Dave form Cal.11. com, and has 'met' Jack Heuer. :dance: It's the biggest case Autavia made, 21mm lugs and chunky..

I probably would have posted my GMT, but it's a little too similar to Stewart's :lol:

Don't think I've seen a Caribbean, so here's my Philip 1500

Not the rarest I guess, neither is it the most expensive, but it is a watch I honestly have loads of fun with, my humble Monster, with some slight mods.

Normally on bracelet but...

Sometimes it's quite nice to have it on mesh too!
