That is exciting news
Hi mrod1021,
Thanks for sharing the news about the new sister ship 'Anthem of the Seas'. Looks like Anthem will begin sailing in the Mediterranean soon and then transatlantic over to NJ in November. Very cool to hear that it will also have a Hublot Boutique.
What I would like to know if Anthem will have as many Hublot clocks displayed around the ship? I found three but heard there were nearly a dozen on the Quantum. Would be a lot of fun to have a scavenger hunt with watch enthusiasts to see who can find (and take pictures) of all the Hublot clocks.
This was our second cruise that we've taken (first was on the Allure last year) and we really enjoyed the Quantum of the Seas. It was really great to see how knowledgeable and friendly the Hublot Boutique staff was. And the onboard watchmaker display and demo was brilliant!
Regards,
ED-209
ps - Have we met before on the Quantum? 
pm or email me, would enjoy chatting with you.
The first Hublot at Sea (and surprise Watchmaker event) !
The First ever Hublot Boutique at Sea! I just wanted to share a few 'live' pics from my vacation. I'm currently sailing onboard the Quantum of the Seas cruise ship. Its the newest, most-technologically advanced ship in the Royal Caribbean Int'l fleet. Jus...
Wow, a boutique on the cruise? Great idea.....
... not having been on any extended period of time on the cruise, this must be so interesting (as I may get bored of the "activities" on it). Great idea, Hublot! Thanks for the report from your vacation, Ed! Ken
good exposure
Thanks Ken. I didn't think I would enjoy cruises (this is my second one). But these big ships have so many activities that I almost can do them all over 8 days. I agree with you, it's a great idea to have these as it exposes more people to the Hublot bran...
Not a bad idea. No where to run.
Just run to the Hublot boutique. Very cool. Thanks Bill
Some deserve a break
I hope Susanna the watchmaker is enjoying her cruise onboard. I didn't see her yesterday when I passed by the Hublot boutique. Maybe I'll try the beach LOL. Regards, ED-209
Wonderful post Ed!
The Quantum of the Seas looks amazing. It is the first of the 3 RC Quantum class ships. I had heard about some of the features but a Hublot Boutique tops the list! I saw the Allure docked in Cozumel, it also looked like a great innovative ship. Thanks for...
Thanks Michael, how was your trip?
Very cool, we were on the Allure last year. How did you enjoy your cruise? Regards, ED-209
Now that is a great idea!!
I had never even heard of them doing this before, but guess I shouldn't be surprised as the brand is always up to new things and ideas. Looks like a lot of fun! Cheers Andrew
fun so far
Thanks Andrew, it was cool to find out about this new concept of having the on board boutique. We're having a lot of fun on the ship. And thumbs up to the staff as they were very knowledgeable and friendly to the guests. Regards, ED-209
Cruise ships are an excellent place to engage collectors of all levels...
The demographic of the typical cruise wouldn't overlap with Hublot's, or so I thought. Of course the Quantum is large enough and more tech savvy, so we're getting closer to future Hublot collectors. I'm impressed at how Hublot has grown the brand out from...
Just like in the other post
Thanks for sharing your thoughts jmpTT. It's interesting about watches on board. This is my second cruise (first one was Allure of the Seas last year) and they also had a similar presentation about buying watches that MichaelC posted recently on our PPro ...
Nice report
That is so cool regarding a floating boutique. Thanks for the Hublot report. I have to ask-any Oceanographics for sale on board there? :)
Thanks, and about the Hublot Oceanographics
Thanks sschew, had one and they should have let a few us try out the Oceanographic 4000 in either the Bahamas or CocoCay Island! :) The watchmaking event was cool, I skipped lunch to attend it (not like there's not enough food places on a cruise ship LOL)...
Much appreciated report
Did the example watch still run after being dissembled and assembled so many times?
Will the watch still run?
Thanks kolosstt for reading the post. I'm sure Susanna the watchmaker is great at her job, so I'm confident that it will be assembled back in good working order and running fine So if you were on a cruise and saw the ad for the watchmaker event, how likel...
100% likelihood!
Sounds like an excellent idea. As watchmaking is in a certain way part of my daily routine. So why shouldn't it be exercised at such an event?! The Quantum class has something 4000 passenger capacity, so i think that it is a good idea to have some kind of...
large capacity
I'm hoping this extends out to other cruise ships. The new ship Anthem of the Seas will be taking over in Port Liberty while Quantum moves to Asia. I hope that the Allure and Oasis class ships (over 6000 passengers!) can have the Hublot boutiques on the n...
Wow Hublot event and boutique on the sea!
Really cool idea from Hublot! Thanks for sharing this event and your cruise experience with us! I was only on a Royal Caribbean cruise once and now I feel like doing another cruise after reading your post and Michael\'s Cheers Robin
I just returned from my cruise
We enjoyed our cruise especially the visit to CocoCay Island. Water was so tranquil and clear. Thanks for reading the post. I had a nice chat with the staff on my last night of the cruise and got some great feedback. Regards, ED-209
They had a watchmaker on board? How cool is that!
Sounds like a great concept. When on vacation, it is always cool to have some kind of momento to bring home and this seems perfect. Very cool to have an actual watchmaker on site, must have been a great experience for watch collectors and newbies. Thanks ...
Having the watchmaker was a great experience for everyone
I noticed that Susanna the Hublot watchmaker was in the main promenade on deck 4 on several days during the cruise presenting the demonstration of the watch case and movement disassembly. I saw families stopping by and shown interested in the watch moveme...
More to come!!
I just found out that the sister ship "Anthem of the Seas" will also have a Hublot Boutique. Hopefully they will do one of those events when I cruise this Winter!
