They aren't the Rolex for a new generation. I'm sure that quote works well on people interested in Hublots when they are at his store.

almost everyone i have seen or have known with a Hublot are not watch people to begin with. I tried to talk to a Hublot owner on an airplane once about his watch, he knew nothing about it or watches in general. Since the brand doesn't really appeal to the WIS crowd it also explains why so many of us are turned off by them. There are a lot of rolex owners like that as well but there are also many WIS Rolex fans too. Not a knock on Rolex at all, but they at least have the WIS following to legitimize the brand and keep it away from a fashion or "look at me" status type brand.
