Although I don't wear it that often anymore it's still a beauty. Tony ...

I can understand why this is one of your favorite Blancpains. Personally I find the dial a little bit to cluttered for my taste but that Villeret case is so good. Those double lines are typical and on most if not all Villeret variations. You wrote this is... 

I've owned many Blancpain's over the years......

This piece is the only one that I have left standing. Although I always have my eye out for a Fifty Fathoms 50th anniversary to add to the collection. This piece was from the Le Brassus collection BTW. It is the perpetual calendar split-second flyback chr...

It's such a beautiful watch and it's a great size!

That makes it a very special watch

Didn’t realize the split second Chrono. Hope you don’t mind me asking but why did you sold all the blancpains you owned? If that’s an inappropriate question please don’t be offended as it’s sincere interest why I’m asking

Love the blancpain perpetual

this has most complications too! For me I'd choose the 8 day perpetual with less on the dial, however, also less movement complications so there is a trade off. Thanks for sharing.

It’s a classic [nt]

Thanks! A see though case back would have made this watch nearly perfect to me......

I still wonder why Blancpain used a solid case back on this piece. Tony

Likewise...I bought one new many years ago.

Lovely watch in terms of complications. Hard to make a split second chrono perpetual and the only one I own. DAve ...
