Thanks for the kind words guys. The watch is mounted on a Apollo strap that Is not original to the watch. If you look at the 5th photo you will see a chunk of rubber that is melted to the box. I think it’s the remains of he original strap that somehow melted? Dr Strong I know that Blancpain made two different 3-6-9-12 dials. I think I have the earlier dial with triangle lume at the 3-6-9 position and the seconds marked at the 5-10 20-25 and so on. I cannot tell but it looks like the watch in the 1965 catalog might be a little later dial style. Maybe your eyes are better than mine. I really use the words Nos very carefully. The only real flaw on the watch is the minor standard crack in the insert at the 12 o’clock position that 95% of all inserts have. And yes I hope to discover the next Air Command. And yes i am afraid to wear the watch so its being stored in my safety deposit box. Brian
