Stuhrling Original Men's 160.33461 Sports Series 'Apocalypse' Swiss Chronograph Watch Review
I LOVE Hublot's Big Bang design. I have been in love with it since I first saw it on the magazine. Very disappointed when I found out that Hublot is actually a expensive brand and it cost the same (or more) than, now my second favorite design, Daytona by Rolex.
I was thrilled when I found out this watch... comes closest to the Big Bang's design. Bought it with one day shipping in a heart beat.
Sob, sob...
If your wrist is small, don't consider this (I'm 5.9 tall and relatively girly wirst). The face is just too big (check out the spec on the case diameter). It just is not porpotional to my wrist, killing any aesthetic. If the diameter was, say around 40~43 mm, it might actually be looking good... sob, sob...
So think of a porpotion (of your wrist v.s. case diameter).
If you have a big wrist, I guess It might look good on you.
Nevertheless, looking at the small details...it still is far from Big Bang.
Nothing much to say in regards to functionality, durability etc...
I will update on that later since I just got it today and adjusted the band to my wrist size.
K, Update on this.
I've checked out the actual Hublot Big Bang.
Big Bang is same size, but actually looks bigger!
Of course, design is fantastic and more sophisticated then this watch, but...not worth paying 10ks of dollars for a rubber strap watch.
Stuhrling watch is actually good as a watch, but I guess my only complain now is, it looks cheap (maybe I guess with my rose gold color). It just looks cheap...
