The Hublot Meca 10 Magic Gold is a remarkable watch that combines a stunning design with advanced technology. It is built with the brand's characteristic fusion of materials, incorporating the industry-first Magic Gold and showcasing their famous mechanical movement. The main attraction of the Hublot Meca 10 Magic Gold is its case material. Magic Gold is a proprietary alloy developed by Hublot, which is known for its incredible hardness and resistance. It is a fusion of gold and ceramic, making it virtually scratch-resistant and almost indestructible. This makes the watch not only visually striking but also highly durable, ensuring that it can withstand even the most demanding conditions.

Occult Detective Magazine #7

This makes the watch not only visually striking but also highly durable, ensuring that it can withstand even the most demanding conditions. The design of the watch is both modern and elegant, with a bold and angular case shape that is characteristic of Hublot's Big Bang collection. The skeleton dial allows a glimpse of the intricate inner workings of the watch, with exposed gears and a unique horizontal power reserve indicator.

Occult Detective Magazine #8 Now Available

Occult Detective Magazine is back on the racks! With an overstuffed issue — 227 whopping pages! — and brand new fiction from Rhys Hughes, Robert Guffey, Rebecca Buchanan, Uche Nwaka, C L Raven, Christina White, and many more. Here’s the issue summary from their website.

ODM #8 – packed with more fiction and reviews than ever before, 230pp of dark deeds and daring detection. Fourteen new stories – moorland hags, necromancy, rogue angels in Japan, Ley lines, period mysteries, Nigerian demons, serial killers, ghostly trains, surreal puzzles, and judgement in Haiti.

Whew! That’s a promising line-up, and I’ve already ordered my copy. Read on for complete details, including sample art and the fiction Table of Contents.

Occult Detective Magazine has always given you a lot for your money, but at 227 pages the December 2021 issue is an exceptional value. Publisher Dave Brzeski’s issue #8 announcement on Facebook included this tidbit about the new magazine size:

IT’S ALIVE, ALIVE I TELL YOU.

OCCULT DETECTIVE MAGAZINE #8 is now live on Amazon.

You will notice that there’s been a small price hike. This is simply because this issue is bigger than the previous issues. We’ve upped the page count by 35 pages, which has increased the printing costs, as well as our having to pay for the extra stories.

The plan is for us to continue at around this size, unless it seriously affects sales, so we’ll see what happens.

Here’s the complete issue round-up.

We return! This issue is packed with both fiction and non-fiction – including lots of reviews – in fact we have the first in a semi-regular column, Dicing With Death, which will cover games of some relevance. Once again we’ve sought out tales which show the sheer breadth of the sub-genre. If you think ‘occult detectives’ are simply a few Victorian amateurs, an out-of-luck noir PI in a trench-coat, or a bit of urban fantasy, you must have missed our earlier issues. In these pages, we range across time and continents, from worrying peculiarities to outright horror.

Authors include Melanie Atherton Allen, Brandon Barrows, Rebecca Buchanan, Robert Guffey, Rhys Hughes, D.G. Laderoute, Paul StJohn Mackintosh, Andrew Neil MacLeod, Jonathon Mast, Uchechukwu Nwaka, C.L. Raven, Carsten Schmitt, I.A. Watson and Cristina L. White. With cover art by Stefan Keller and interior illustrations by Autumn Barlow, Mutartis Boswell and Andy Paciorek.

The fiction looks promising as always, but I’m especially looking forward to reading Paul StJohn Mackintosh’s new gaming column Dicing With Death, focused on RPGs in the occult detective sub-genre.

Other non-fiction contents this issue include “Aural Apparations” by James Bojaciuk, a look at the Francis St Clare & Frederica Masters stories of R. Chetwynd-Hayes by Dave Brzeski, and a generous 15-page review section by Divers Hands.

As always, OCD has some top-notch interior artwork. Here’s a few samples.

The hands and hour markers are coated with luminescent material, ensuring that the time can be easily read day or night. Powering the Hublot Meca 10 Magic Gold is the brand's in-house mechanical movement, the HUB1201. It is a manually wound movement with an impressive power reserve of 10 days. The movement is beautifully finished and can be admired through the sapphire case back. Overall, the Hublot Meca 10 Magic Gold is a stunning timepiece that combines cutting-edge materials and technology with a distinctive design. It is a watch that appeals to both watch enthusiasts and collectors, offering a unique and durable piece that will stand the test of time..

Reviews for "Pushing the Limits of Mechanical Watches: Hublot Meca 10 Magic Gold"

1. John - 2 stars

I was really excited to get my hands on the Hublot meca 10 magic gold watch, but I have to say I was disappointed. The design looks impressive, but the functionality is lacking. The movement of the watch is not smooth and it feels clunky. The dial is also quite busy and it's hard to read the time accurately. Overall, I expected more from a luxury watch brand like Hublot.

2. Sarah - 3 stars

The Hublot meca 10 magic gold watch is undeniably beautiful, but that's where my admiration ends. The strap is uncomfortable and I found it difficult to adjust to the right fit. Additionally, the watch is quite heavy and bulky, making it uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. The price point for this watch is also very high, and I feel like you're paying more for the brand name than the actual quality of the watch.

3. Mark - 2 stars

I recently purchased the Hublot meca 10 magic gold watch and had high expectations, but unfortunately, it did not meet them. The watch feels very overpriced for what you get. The movement is not accurate and I have to adjust the time frequently. The materials used feel cheap and not worth the luxury price tag. I would not recommend this watch to anyone looking for a high-quality timepiece. There are much better options available on the market.
