When you spend enough time with a group collectors, you will more than likely hear them talk about "The Set" and "The Full Set". This is something that people who collect early Hublot Replica Watches watches find very attractive when they are looking to purchase an example. It can be useful to know the accessories that should accompany these early Hublot Replica Watches timepieces for those who are looking to acquire one.
The "Set" includes a closed caseback with each of the early Hublot Replica Watches models. The watches came with sapphire backs, but you can ask a watchmaker for a different one if you don't want the movement to be visible. We have not yet handled any models that had the sapphire caseback fitted when they arrived at our shop. You can't blame the previous owner for that, can you? Patek Philippe was the only brand that did this at the same time. Although it's not confirmed why, many believe that it was to pay homage to great watches from the past where the beauty of the movements was hidden. There is an elegance in hiding such fine craftsmanship and finesse. The satisfaction comes from just knowing that it exists.
The original box came with a variety of paperwork, including the caseback. Included in the paperwork should be an Observatory Certificate from the Besancon Observatory. A small Certificate of Origin will display the Poincon de Geneve. And a slightly bigger Certificate of Guarantee that contains all the details about the piece. Include the case number, the movement number (which must match the stamp on the watch), and the original sale date along with an image of your watch.www.okreplicas.com
A leather folio and instruction book should be included, as well as a small blue brochure with Dubuis’ portrait. This booklet will provide some background information on the company. Along with the paperwork, you should find a Geneva Seal metal hang tag as well as a small leather tag. The leather tag may have a label attached to it that indicates the model number. Even if your leather strap is not original, you should still look for an original folding clasp or pin buckle attached to it. Here's what it looks like.
The Besancon Observatory certification is much larger than other paperwork included with the watch. This shows how difficult it was to obtain such accreditation. The Besancon Observatory has much higher standards than the COSC, and still requires the same ISO 3159 standards that other chronometers must meet. However, it also insists that watches are fully-cased,Breitling Replica in their final state, when they arrive at the Besancon Observatory for testing. They are then tested for 16 consecutive days in three temperatures, ranging from 8degC up to 23degC. Finally they are tested at 38degC.
