Secondary market on the Blancpain 70th in a few years should follow JLC resale imho. Swatch may be following Richemont's lead.
Plus the Omega Heritage Seamaster 300 with bronze / gold case with METAS certification offers much more for less than half the 'pain.

Haven’t seen it in daylight yet, so real color needs to be taken with the caveat of artificial light only. Cheers Henrik ...
Tout va bien. Enjoying the typical sunny "autmmer" late september day.
Have the best sunday.
Nope
I don’t like neither the hands nor the indices, as compared tk the regular production model. While the size of this limited model is excellent, the quality appeal is definitely lower than the standard FF .
The way I understand it Omega developed this metal to look mostly like bronze while being more stable than bronze and more durable than gold. If you're a fan of the way bronze
patinas it's not for you. For these reasons and the metal's color I like it. I also like the symmetry (no date) and the size. I'm not a NATO fan but that's an easy fix. Only thing I don't like is the price.
Well, I hate it.
I take it back. I don't hate watches (usually). But this is so lame and expensive. And the movement is so ordinary that it's almost unbelievable. Did Panerai ship BP some movements but withheld the casebacks?
Spectacular! I love everything about it
But the 32k retail is beyond justification. I was frankly shocked when I saw the price. IMHO should have been priced high teens low 20s max. But what do I know?
