Actually, I really think that the Antikythera is the most impressive by far MP watches. A big step ahead when compared with the others. Thanks for the post! Fx
I was very impressed, too!

Yes, he was really charming personality and can't believe he broke his nose numerous times from fencing..... :-) Ken
Incredibly personal interview
By: Ophiuchus : November 7th, 2012-21:12
I'm really stunned at how open and frank Mr. Buttet was in this interview, about his past and his aims. To have a child at 14! What enormous pressure. I always knew there was a class of "watchmakers" that were the all encompassing "conceptuer" I had imagi...
Thank you, you view echoes mine...

... He and Hublot is a bit under appreciated in certain aspects, but addition of Mathias would enormously give Hublot advantage in R&D. I would keep by both eyes on them, where they go, what they do, etc. Thanks, Ophiuchus! Ken
Two things

One--congratulations on not copying AP on this model. Two: has the world gone insane or is no one looking at how this watch REALLY looks on the wrist? Guys: please. ...

This is sort of a scientific experiment to see how small a case the Antikythera Mechanism function + watch can be put in, in cooperation with the actual scientists who have been researching this important ancient artifact, to which Hublot has been funding...
Sorry

I will do so. I should not post on the Hublot forum. Because I don't think highly of the brand. To each his own, and I will be more courteous.
Interesting pieces...

I actually like the bullet-shaped piece. Those are some really funky pieces, definitely very interesting. Thanks for sharing this interesting interview with these watches that I haven't seen anywhere else!
