    Blancpain: 50 Fathoms

    I think I have been bitten by this bug. I haven't seen the real piece yet, but it looks pretty cool in picture

    How do you like it?

        I had the priviledge of handling it, and I must say, its a damm nice watch. One unique feature was the bezel. Its a layer of sapphire bonded to the bezel, rendering it scratch-resistant. Overall, a nice size & heft to it.

            it's not bad a choice....... the non-dlc version i think list is 17 plus...... dunno got price increase or not i cant rem....

            like the fact it's a inhouse movement with 5 days power reserve.........

            however, i less keen on the shape of the hour markers and hands.....

            usually i buy watches mainly for looks....

            and so i pass..... hehe

            but dont let this deter u..... it's still a very nice watch ...
            the hype is true. listen at your own risk.

              Thanks. I checked at T3 Tourbillon Boutique, the non DLC list is 17K. No stock for DLC and non DLC. Looks like stock is quite low, couldn't find it in HK either, found only the pink gold one.

                      Anway, was at Raffles Hotel on Saturday. They have a single pc, full gold in stock, listed at 30K. There have not been a single SS pc into SGP the past 3-4mths now.

                      Demand is absoultely mind boggling !!!

                      Not seen the PVD one shown here. Does the hands and markers lume ?

                          Agree, nice alternative, but to me somehow the BP FF gives more kick

                            Thanks Hary.

                            Was at T3 this morning, poped into Tourbillon Watches ......... low and behold, they have a pc of SS 50 Fathoms (leather strap) and another pc of rose gold Chrono 50 Fathoms (leather strap).

                            Sleepless in Tokyo now......... and I have to go back the way I came ....

                              i had been eyeing on the vintage Blancpain AquaLung for ages,
                              but everytime when i am about to buy, it always gets sold

                              guess i got no "yuan" with that one

                              the 50 fathoms looks fabulous. pricewise i think also very "fabulous"

                                Bro, be careful about vintage BP, a lot of fakes out there. Buy from reliable source. Good luck
