Anyone own a rose gold Hublot?

mjr24 · 10-26-2018, 02:54 AM

Was looking at maybe picking up a Classic Fusion Chronograph in the ceramic black and rose gold.

I already have a Rolex GMT II and a Breitling Navitimer GMT and want something a bit different than those....

I am curious about how susceptible the gold is to scratching (meaning more so surface scratches as opposed to deep gashs). Obviously, if this happens on a stainless steel watch, you can take it in for a polish and it comes out looking like new.

I am a bit hard on my watches at times and very OCD and surface scratches on the gold part would bother me and shy me away from that altogether. Anyone here owned one?

Suggest going to TIMEZONE.COM they have a HUBLOT forum and I’m sure someone would post pictures for you.

I was just at Timezone researching your question and someone wrote that gold wouldn’t transmit shock to the movement like ss would, I don’t know if that’s true.

Also I notice on auction house watch sales scratched gold cases on desirable old models still fetch very good prices. I realize your ocd but like old cars and antique furniture, non abusive obvious wear is interesting - if I had to chose a good description.
