This new line up would have appealed to me a decade ago in my wilder days. Reminds of a the Cvstos Challenge Jet-Liner series on steroids.
And on your question as to why not use Unico as opposed to the El Primero, well I guess the main reason is that this is a mutually beneficial relationship where Zenith movements are showcased in a brand loved by the rich and famous whilst Hublot benefits from having a movement with pedigree and historical significance. And besides, Unico is a terrible name for a movement.

There is a lot to like in this collection. It seem like as usual they are targeting a broad range of ages ataste. There really is something for everyone for the elegant to the sports models. The Blackout look to the rich gold and striking dials. I need to...
