 I don't know about the rest of you but this watch is not for me, even if it was only $50......but $5 million??? Looks like something that came from a shopping mall kiosk!

"It took 17 people 14 months to set the more than 140 carats of diamonds on the watch’s white gold bracelet....."

 I'm not a fan of Hublot, so if you take all those diamonds and stick em on an Invicta or a Timex it would be just as impressive

Yes I did. The other link had a few pop ups coming up so I added a different link and the pictures.

Thanks for posting the info!


Ahhhh...ok..I didn't know that. I almost always post via my iPad 2 so I didn't see the pop ups....sorry bout that.

Thanks for fixing it!

 If you add enough diamonds to it any watch can be ultra expensive, and IMO in atrocious taste. Unless worn by someone who you know has more money than sense most people are going to presume that such a ridiculous display is CZ and are not going to be impressed by anything but the wearers poor taste.:BE

 I think that's cheating. Show me the worlds most expensive watch without any diamonds then I'd be impressed.

Those $5 million dollars bras.... They don't hold anything.

 Watch is not itself expensive but the diamonds, not fair. Mostly when we heard world most expensive, why is there be always the involvement of diamonds.

 I love Hublot Watches I have one and it will probably be the only one I ever own. This one is just not my thing either. & Will it ever keep it's value?


Reminds me of the Croton I was given last Christmas!



Again not my thing but it was a gift from some one I am very close to.

 I've know a doctor who has 3 Rolex watches with diamond, diamond and ruby, and diamond and emerald bezels. I couldn't wear one, even if I got it as a gift. I'd definitely sell it and pay off some bills and make a donation to my favorite charity. Stuff like that doesn't do anything for me.
