Lip Blancpain on the left, Blancpain on the right. 





I should have NEVER let the one on the left go... 

I didn't imagine, at that time, how tough it would be to find another 3 / 6 / 9 / 12. And this one was all good! 

Nostalgia... 

Best,

Nicolas

Is the Milspec an AM? If yes, what number, if I may ask? [nt]

No AM

456x civilian Milspec, but first owner was an American Sergeant in heavy duty in Korea or Vietnam.

Very nice!!! New catch? [nt]
