Must admit, I find that a very pleasing-looking thing, and not absurdly priced.
Nice dial, case is very Overseas-ish however the bracelet in the pics looks not the greatest fit and finish IMHOMust admit, I find that a very pleasing-looking thing, and not absurdly priced.
I can't see much wrong with the bracelet but would be nice to try it first. I contacted them today and they say they are working on a micro adjust system as well.

Just browsed their website, thanks for the link. If the quality in person matches that in the pictures, then they make a very nice watch imo.
The choice to stick with an ‘in-house’ upgraded ETA copy and soft iron antimagnetic inner core makes the Ingenieur a sort semi-historical reproduction or re-issue. A few of the best recent refinements have been maintained, with the modern bracelet and crown guards, while other parts feel bit closer to the Genta version. No doubt they would be encouraged by VC’s very faithful 222 reissue and perhaps even GS’s heritage collection reissues. But it’s not quite a living modern watch in terms of the movement, when Omega and now Tudor and others are making genuinely anti-magnetic METAS certified watches for less. It becomes a (rather expensive) souvenir of how anti-magnetism used to be achieved in the old days.
FWIW I quite like it if money was no object, though the crown guards might push the dimensions slightly beyond my comfort zone. They did with the slim but slab-like previous version where they seemed to blend into the case from some angles. They may have fixed that on this one though, they’re certainly redesigned and we’re assured it wears well for its size.

While I don’t actually want one and I’m not 100% sure I like it, I feel Hublot deserve some credit for making a watch that actually looks like something modern, and not a reconstituted mishmash of vintage ideas. And also for having a somewhat Royal Oak bezel, but on a watch that looks nothing like one.
