Things have been a little slow around here so i thought we could see everyone first bp. And if you don't own one yet please post a photo of whats on the top of your list. Here is my first from a guy in Iowa. Brian...  

Still with you, Brian? [nt]

My first Blancpain FF.... No Rad Bund.

 
 By: amanico : November 12th, 2014-12:13
I sold it to get an AM, the Nr 103. Now, I am hunting another one. I sold a total of 3 vintage Fifty Fathoms, and I regret all of them. This one, a civilian Milspec, a Lip Blancpain. Golden rule: Do never sell a Vintage Fifty, or you will regret it! Best...  

Nice bund

I sold that tr-900 a few years ago with only slight regret. But i was able to find a few since than and i have kept the Marine Tr-900. Here is a photo from 1973. Brian ...  

Top, with its original strap! [nt]

My first BP

 
 By: Tick Talk : November 13th, 2014-08:14
just couldn't resist the military dial :-) Definitely has sporty intentions and I just love it. To be completely accurate, my first experience with BP was a dealer's loaner while my Rolex was in for servicing some 20+ years ago. He was trying to tempt me ...  

Very nice QP Chrono. I had a WG one, with the blue dial.

Loved it.... Best, Nicolas

Nicolas, can you post a picture

 
 By: Tick Talk : November 14th, 2014-13:27
of the QP Chrono with blue dial? That color dial on white metal is a gorgeous combination!

Sadly, not. I sold it in 2006. I didn't take pictures, at this moment. :(

It was gorgeous, but I had several issues with hands " walking " in the dial.... Several times. Best, Nicolas

Glad you still have that bp

Sound as a very good plan!

 
 By: levelero : November 16th, 2014-04:34

Well, here my humble first .. And only one so far ;)

 
 By: hs111 : November 17th, 2014-02:55
Had been looking for a FF already for some time, but in vain.. it has been some 3-4 years ago, when I had the chance to find one, from a fellow Purist, owning several, who parted from this one.. As I had to work with imaging techniques, using isotopes as ...  

Ohhh.. Here comes the FF- Master.. Maybe 3-4 ( knowing you there will be more) ;))

 
 By: hs111 : November 17th, 2014-04:14
.. And that is without counting the TR's, I suppose ! Let me quickly count: Early Rotobloc Incablock, early Milspec, Milspec 1 (the same ?), Milspec AM, Milspec Pakistani.. Etc etc - and then the Tornek Rayvilles ( I can think of 2, I guess to have seen, ... 

My first one..bought on ebay 10 years ago...

good old days... ...  

Cool watch!

 
 By: Briandumais : November 19th, 2014-17:21
Looks like a great first watch. The wabi look wonderful and it has paper. Its funny that they scratched out the generic federal stock number on case back and left the serial number. I really love the bund no rad with its flat black dial. This was my secon...  

My first and second...
