good suggestions!!
thanks for your suggestion. think i will stop at these 6 first, before proceding. quickie question, whats with the radiation logo at 6 for some 70s FFs? which FF is the most "collectable" and what sort of price range?
thanks again, btw turning in now...its 5am in singapore!!!
Fifty Fathom Concept 2000???
can some kind soul enlightened me on the above? which year production is this? the strap is rubber/steel combo. thks in advance
As well as the bezel
Now, that is a thread for Oliver ( Sall Luxury World ), as he's the proud owner of this watch! Best, Nicolas
howdy
seems like you are the authority on the FF, can you shed any light on this watch??
I'm far from being an Authority on FF, my friend
Just a passionate guy who learns... Before Oliver answers, you may do a search, and for a first look on this watch, here's a link: blancpain.watchprosite.com By the way, the bezel doesn't have rubber, but the crown, I think... Best, Nicolas
Now tell us more, khips
Are you considering it? At the moment, circa year 2000, it was a surprising and very original watch! Then came the 50 th Anniversary, and the FF in 2007... Another chapter, indeed. Best, Nicolas
prob some silly collecting idea
spent the better part of whole year buying chronos...PP 5070, which i sold to finance purchase of a JLC doumetre and a VC Malte chrono, plus GO panograph and several other chronos like Chronoswiss monopusher etc. now i have shifted to diver's watches. thi...
I love that " game ", Khips
I play a lot, too, as I love making links between Present and Past... I did and still do it with Vintage JLC diving watches, with the FFs, the Longines, and Rolex, too. Therefore, the diving thema is a stroy without end, as you will always find a watch yo...
true true
yeah, truth be told. there is some thematic thing to the whole excercise. and also reality is divers watches are on a relative scale more affordable then collecting chronos or calenders etc. not to mention, with some military exposure, and thus tons of re...
There are so many possibilities, khips
If you don't want to psend that much money, go and have an eye on the super compressor watches, lie the Longines Diver, for example, or the Universal Geneve Polerouter sub... If you can spend more, you may also consider other FFs Vintage, they are so dang...

The most collectible FF
Without any doubt: The Air Command ( around 30 000 USD ) The Tornek Rayville ( TR 900 ), around 23 000 USD. These are 2 Cult Watches! But you also have sme very strong and exciting whoices among the Milspecs, the Lip Blancpain, or the Early FFs... Have a ...
2 Good mates eh ........
Nico, thanks for the education and assisting Khips. Told him you'd be the first to reply when it comes to vintage FFs. Cheers and HAGWE !!
Most certainly !
Thanks for sharing. Seen em watches, dun even know these were the Concept 2000s !
Flamenco - thks
yes...you know you are one of the two "mates"!!!! Nicolas, i actually asked Flamy before i turned to the forum, and its him and another who owns the FF that ignited my initial interest, but as always with grand ideas(or in some illusions of granduer...), ...
Flamenco is indeed a dangerous friend! :)))
Once you're into the Vintage Bug...It is difficult to resist! Yuo should make a comparative pic of the Vintage and the modern Ploprof, as Bill did. Best, Nicolas
yeah...Flamy is dangerous
thats part of the plan. but really wanna do the comparison between the 70s vintages, follow by their modern counterparts....thats i guess is the end game, and also scratch the collecting itch.
thks luxury world
thanks, that clarifies alot. was confused for two days, and when i googled, mostly its sales website that pops up.
