to me your comment sounds too much like a simple hearsay statement. Many owners have different experience with Blancpain service - I for my part cannot complain at all. But I live in a country with a boutique and service centre, so it may be a totally dif...

... yesterday my friend told me Blancpain service regrets for long waiting (over 8 month now) , the watch is on the run now to Germany and service is for free !!!! I think this is more than O.K. ! Best Stephan

other brands are much slower
