That might be the one Hublot I've ever seen that I've actually liked...
That being said, yes it is too flashy. You don't want to be wearing a $10k watch as an analyst.
I think you should get this one. Come on, for the 100+ hours you will put in, you deserve it.

while some Hublot watches are very nice I have only ever once seen a person wear one in Finance, and yes way too flashy for a first year, they just jump into your eye (even the classic fusion is very shiny, quite massive etc.)
Hublots are tacky as hell
Spend your money wisely
Don't overspend on a watch. Save for a rainy day.
God, I hate Hublots.
Regardless, if you like it then just get it. It's not up to us to tell you whether you should spend $10,000 on that ugly thing or whether it's flashy.
It really depends on who is looking, I appreciate a nice watch on someone because I'm an avid watch connoisseur. Someone like @"Slash-Finance" might perceive it differently.
What are you rocking most at the moment?
Tag Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph, great for the price
Have had a Rolex Explorer II white dial and Rolex Sub Hulk which I was lending from friends. Basically paid them like a rental.
Shopping for an IWC Portuguese Automatic Chronograph now. I have two friends that are major gray market dealers so trying to get one for under $4500, which is basically like 60% off. If I can't get one by late Fall I might just go for a nodate Sub
I'm with yeahright on this one. If you like the watch, go ahead and get it. Its your money, so spend it how you want.
That said, I think it is a gaudy watch and it really does draw unnecessary attention, particularly as a first year analyst. If you want to drop 10k on a watch for the sake of wearing an expensive watch, find something that draws less attention to the fact that your wearing an expensive watch. You really don't know who you are going to meet/work with and they make take offense to the fact that you are wearing a Hublot as a 1st year analyst and think you're a spoiled kid whose daddy got him the job or they may be a watch collector and be impressed by it. It's a tradeoff that you need to decide about - how do you want to be perceived wearing that watch. Personally, I don't care, but then again, your colleagues may think your a jerk for it. That's my two cents.
Personally: that watch is tacky as shit. Tag Heuer Aquaracer FTW. But if you really like the watch, get it and rock the look. Confidence over style.
Its definitely nice.. but I dont think its Automatic movement, is it?
Personally, that watch looks really tacky and is way overpriced. It's totally your call though, worst case scenario is that you get some shit for it at work and if it gets too bad then you don't wear it to the office, or you sell it and buy something more conservative. I don't see how you can cause major damage by wearing a watch that some people might not find appealing.
Damn, now im looking up Hublots. for the 5k-7k price range you can really find something nice. Seems more fitting for a younger guy than the typical Rolex
I would get a baume and mercier capeland or clifton for about 2k. Not a rolex or hublot.
Hows this look?

How about the Patek Philip Caltrava 5196G....Yes its like 2-3x more but I think its beautiful and more subtle.

As nice as that is, you are going to get a lot of shit for wearing it. A lot of people think a 22 year old shouldn't own a $30k watch.
Renaissance man Jack Baruth had this to say about Hublot as a brand: http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2012/10/avoidable-contact-the-watery-b… (it starts further down, but the whole article is good)
This perfectly sums up my opinion on Hublot. They're gaudy, overpriced and derive all of their value from the fact that they cost too much. In the same way that Paris Hilton is "famous for being famous", Hublot watches are "expensive because they're expensive"
If a rap star wears it, you probably shouldn't.
This is true. In the R&B world (music industry in general) it's ok. If you're a label owner, fine. If you're an analyst, I would move towards a Baume & Mercier, Tag Aquaracer, Omega Speedmaster Chrono.
