Rolex or Hublot watch?

Yonkers

Which watch do you think is more class/stylish/expensive and just well better? Which do you prefer and why?

Answer
Some answers here are too subjective and give no reasons for their choices. Let's look at these two brands as objectively as possible by comparing some data about them that I find in my many watch magazines and almanacs. You can then have some basis for forming your own opinion.
HISTORY
Hans Wilsdorf began making watches in 1905. In 1908, he began using the name Rolex on his watches. The derivation of that name is uncertain.
Carlo Crocco founded Hublot in 1980. "Hublot" is French for "porthole" that the bezel resembles with its screws. Jean-Claude Biver who revived Blancpain in 1982 moved to Hublot in 2004 to become CEO.
EMPLOYEES & PRODUCTION
Rolex has over 2000 workers who produce almost 1,000,000 watches each year lately.
Hublot has about 150 workers who make 24,000 watches annually.
COLLECTIONS
Rolex offers mainly "Oyster Perpetual" automatic water-resistant sports watches and some "Cellini" dress watches.
Hublot offers "Classic", "Big Bang" and "King" lines.
MONEY SPENT ON ADS IN THE USA IN 2007
Rolex spent much more than any other company, i.e. $47,100,000. Breitling was a not so close second with $27,070,000. Hublot was 18th with $5,280,000 spent.
BASIC SPORTS WATCHES
$6300Sb, $9950S&Rb Rolex "O.P. Datejust" 4fa
$6900S, $10,900S&R Hublot "Classic Fusion" 4fa
DEEP DIVING WATCHES
$10,650Sb Rolex "O.P. Sea Dweller Deep Sea" 4fa 3900 meter diver
$19,000T Hublot "King Power Diver" 4fa 4000 meter diver
GOLD CHRONOGRAPHS
$27,650R Rolex "O.P. Cosmograph Daytona" 3fa-C (also $34,700Rb)
$27,900R Hublot "Classic Fusion Chrono" 4fa-C
MOST COMPLICATED MODELS
$27,650R Rolex "O.P. Cosmograph Daytona" 3fa-C (listed under Chronographs)
$375,000R&CF Hublot "King Power" 3fm-MR-T-C
SECOND MOST COMPLICATED MODELS
$25,150S&Rb Rolex "O.P. Yacht-Master II" 3fa with yacht regatta countdown
$195,000Z Hublot "King Power" 3fm-T-C
Well, what do you think? I say that Rolex is "hyped". Everyone hears about about it, since it spends far more money on ads than any other brand. It's not the costliest nor the best brand. My Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin dress watches cost over 3.5 times as much as a comparable Rolex, and they're worth it. The production figures show Rolex is mass-produced with each employee making 500 watches per year. Each Hublot employee produces 160 watches per year and thus works 3.125 times as long on each watch. Patek and Vacheron spend even more time on each watch. Rolex is hardly a major brand when it makes no watch more complicated than a chronograph. The most complicated wriswatch of all is Franck Muller's "Aeternitas Mega 4" -GS-MR-T-PC-CR with 1483 parts that costs $2,666,700P in 2012. I have written five editions of a book about "THE COSTLIEST WATCH BRANDS". Rolex places 46th costliest in 2012. It seems that Rolex is vastly over-rated. The top watch aficianados aren't impressed by it. I bought two Rolexes soon after I graduated from college, but now, I wear Jaeger-LeCoultre, Piaget, Cartier, IWC, Patek and Vacheron more often.
EDIT: Hasan is wrong to say Rolex is the best watch. It's good but not great. I own two Rolexes, but some of my other watches I've listed are better by far. A Jeager-LeCoultre "Master" sports watch is severely tested for 1000 hours while 1.4 Rolexes are made each day. Rolex is what I consider a bottom line Luxury Brand, since it's so much cheaper than the costliest brands. Lee Cameron a San Francisco watch repairman I know well likes Omega better than Rolex. Repairman Rolf Klotz from Germany also likes Omega very well.

Is feminism a luxury afforded only the modern woman?

Alias

I've heard of no evidence that cave women (Stone Age) lobbied for equality or greater respect. Is that a luxury only modern, civilized women can afford?

Answer
"Feminists donât build anythingâ¦
Feminism is merely about trying to cash in
on the achievements and institutions built by men.
âLook around youâ, where ever you are, where ever you go,
men have imagined, conceived, designed and created practically
everything that existsâ¦everything!!!
The male mind is uniquely suited to visualize abstract concepts
and then make them a reality. Females know this innately.
This is the unspoken reality of our existence on this earth."

Is there an advertising technique that sells better than sex, if so we do we keep resorting to sex appeal?

luxury watches for women brands image

boldas.lov

Is sex appeal even currently the most popular advertising technique?

Answer
The advertisement being used in any case has a specific aim for a specific brand/product. So depending on that specific purpose, a medium and message is chosen, which may or may not involve sexual appeal.

When you watch TV next time, take note of the vehicle most advertisements are using. It will change over the course of the day. Early morning children's programs will have ads that appeal to mum's emotional side - through her children, like a mum serving a certain jam for breakfast and her kids looking at her with loving grins as they eat it - and the kids' need for excitement and socialisation.

Sex appeal works if it is for the right product. You don't see world vision and other charities trying to gain income through sex appeal. Nor are calls for blood donations using it. And, think of political advertising before elections - do they use scantily clad bikini models next to their candidate?

The premise usually used behind sex appeal is that, by using or buying an offering, you will be able to attract the person depicted in the ad and for lack of better words, 'get laid'. The product becomes associated with sex. Think of 'The Lynx Effect' and so on.

It is great for products that communicate power, status and luxury goods. High-powered cars, expensive clothes, and as seen nearly all the time, for things like cologne, aftershave and so on. Fragrances are used to attract the opposite sex as one of if not the main purpose for using them, so sex appeal is a perfect tool for them. You will notice these products are typically aimed at men... If you are selling a product to retired women, sex appeal may not work so well!

So to conclude on your question - how well an advertising tool or technique works depend on the product and the target market. You cannot call sex appeal the 'best' tool. But it certainly has its place among the myriad of other tools for promoting a product.

Im thinking of getting a movado watch for my wife's b-day is that a good present? is it a luxury watch?

tommy

I would spend up to $1000 or a little more if nesscesary

Answer
Does she like expensive jewelry??? Does she wear a watch??? Personally, I wouldn't find value in a $1K watch (the one I got for $18 tells time just fine, and is real cute) so it wouldn't suit just any woman...you know her, so you should know what she likes...I've never heard of that brand, so can't say if it's a good brand or not (but IMO, no watch is worth that much)...

I am interested in getting a luxury watch and need help?

luxury watches by brand image

lucinda

I am just now getting into the watch game and I do not want to spend a lot of money on a bs watch. I want to spend around $1000-$1500 on a nice luxury watch with diamonds and at least 18k gold. I'm looking at Movado, but I do not know if they are a good brand or not. I know Rolex is the best but I do not have the cash flow for that. If you guys could fill me in on anything it would be appreciated! I'm looking for well known respected brands that are not all show, but have some quality to them also, Thanks again

Answer
Movado is an excellent watch brand. Rolex is a better watch brand. If you want to talk about "the best," though, you're looking at Patek Phillippe and similar brands--some of these watches go for millions.

The bottom of this website includes rankings of major watch brands: http://www.chronocentric.com/watches/brands.shtml. Besides Movado, you may want to look at Baume & Mercier. Movado's really a very unique look, though, so if you like Movado, I'm not sure you'll like the other luxury watch brands at a similar level.

What will be a good woman watch for Valentine day present?

saalanghae

I'm looking to buy my wife a new watch for upcoming Valentines day. She already have few luxury watches (Omega w/ diamonds, Fendy, Gucci, Rolex SS.. etc). She is in mid 30s and don't like it too flashy. I'm somewhat interested in Technomarine Ceramique watch but open for anyother recommendations. What are popular brands nowadays anyway?

Thank you in advance.

Answer
She really want another watch? Since she had already had so many of it. I found some silver bracelets are really amazing. The one named "butterfly loves flowers forever" is best to express your love to your real soul mate at that special day.
