I wouldn't call my "reissue" wish a real reissue:
I like a lot the size ans shape of the Air Command Chronograph and would love the reissue in the same size (cca. 40 mm), with lunette, dial color and calender/moonphase functions of the now introduced FF Chrono Calender and minutely lunette division of the (also new) reissue.
Best, Robertus

What would you like to see reissued?
We have seen the "No rad" fifty fathom that Blancpain with mixed reviews.I am exited that they made the effort. Lets list below what Blancpain should reissue along with specifications. I think they should make the classic milspec. Should be 41 mm, no date...

Blancpain Air Command
I would be very interested in the reissue of the original Air Command model. The current modern version of this chronograph has a very large bezel and is tri-compax. A reissue closer to the original model could be very attractive. credit : Joel de Toulous...
Interesting post, Brian.
In my case, my wish list is: - TR-900, or - US Navy, or - Milspec, or - No Rad (without date), or - A first version FF (with 3, 6, 9, 12 dial) I want them closely to the original one... I want a red-ed of this one... Or one like this one... Best Emilio...
Right Said Fred - I'm Too Sexy
and these old Fifties are to sexy for Blancpain of today ! I would preferr a Milspec or a 3-6-9 Fifty not oversiced, no date , high domed ... but this will be a dream... but no worry - I have these nice ... best regards Stephan...
A....
no rad but without a date.... also slightly smaller... 39...40 or 41mm but that would not happen as they have t develop a new case... very expensive for a small market of the re-issue.... all of them, if they are made would be 45mm.... cheers
Some great idea's!
I think that they could design one classic shape case that could be used to make a limited addition run. Could be a matt case and a plexi crystal (like the pam 249) and have the on a manageable size (41mm). 250 3-6-9-12 250 Air Command (i have a photo of ...
That is a pretty good idear Brian...!
... I think we should write to Blancpain and as to take us sereious here..! BTW, please post the photo of the rare Air Command Best Hans
Air Command
Hans I am getting a small website with some of my watches. It will have some photo of this very rare Air Command. I will have it ready next week and i will post a link. Brian
Are you saying that you just found and added in your collection
THIS Air Command??? Brian, please, tell me all! Best, Nicolas
not my Air Command
Nicholas That watch is made of unobtainium and as the name implies is unable to be purchased. Brian
Doesn't matter which one ....
...... as long if it's true to the original and the case is NOT 45 but maximum 42 mm ... . eerrr, shouldn't i first dream of the real deal ??? F
I hate.....
to be the cynic here.... but I doubt it that Blancpain will see it this way.... cheers
