The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 70th Anniversary Act 3

[kempoman]

Perhaps is the pricing that nobody mentioned this in the forum,

For that price it should be gold, not a bronze-gold alloy.

$150

^^^Yeah it looks like some Helson micro. WTF Blancpain
People have been begging for years to make a smaller non-LE size of a regular current BPFF 5015 and this is is what they dig up from archives? lol

Looks like a BP. Gold is a non starter, as is the price for me. Size is good though, wish they would make their non-LE models to fit more average wrists.

Exactly. Not at retail price, but I would absolutely consider a FF in some varietal if they sized the non-LE's below 45mm.

The timefactoers PRS-50 I had back in the day was kind of cool.
It was the no-rad homage of the FF.
I would never buy an actual Blancpain though unless at a hefty discount.

Honestly never want to look at the pricing on most watches Kempo.
It often takes away a lot of the magic of watches for me because I
don’t often get the whole thing. So I will just enjoy the news, as
well as look at this new marvel sir.

I mean it is seriously a gorgeous looking watch, yowza ! Thank you
so so much for the report !!!

Everytime I see something come out like this no matter how big a raise, bonus, or how well my investments are doing I just realize how much of a cheap ass I've become.

I'm wearing a $150 G-Shock right now.
