Went ahead and indulged in exactly what I've been wanting; should arrive from my dealer next week

While I really enjoy the ceramic blue-dialed Bathyscaphe, the Sedna gold version released last year, with the striking brushed case, really floored me. I've thought it over since then, and finally decided the time is right. I'll certainly post my thoughts...  

Plan to give a review. The good news is that

I’ve already owned the steel and ceramic version, so have a baseline for comparison

Stunning! Congrats! Can’t wait to see more pictures

Beauty! I love blue dials set against colored gold.

Although I have not owned one, I do find them appealing.

I think blue against rose gold has become my

Congrats too

I like this piece too. It somehow says “captain of the ship”, in a classy way. I’m curious to know if you had other pieces in mind before deciding on this piece?

Thanks Cookies! I’ll feel like the captain, that’s for sure!

Just don’t ask my wife. I’ll share some decision points when it arrives this week

I admit I have problems whenever I purchase watches. I have to hide them sometimes.

I am a big fan of red gold combined with blue. Especially if it is a sports watch. And I am a fan of BP now. I can say just the best about my (first) FF which I have been wearing permanently the last weeks. Many congrats for your choice! Cheers Thomas

Hi Thomas!

Really enjoyed seeing your rose gold FF recently, such an incredibly stunning piece. I think BP has done a spectacular job with the Sedna Bathyscaphe and rose gold FF with that ceramic dial. Glad to hear you love it and look forward to seeing it again Dou... 

Hi Douglas! 😊

Yes, they did an amazing job with both iterations. Both have a blue ceramic dial. I am very curious to see, how the Sedna gold differs from the brushed rose gold. Please let your wrist shots come as soon as possible. Congrats once again! 😊 Thomas ...  

Hi Thomas! Thanks!

Happy to post my pictures when it arrives, which should be tomorrow. Your FF is so beautiful and radiates a sense of presence on the wrist! So pleased that you're so excited about your Blancpain, it certainly seems like it could be a lifelong companion fo...

I’ve seen it with the gold nato hardware and thought it looked outstanding.

I agree Miguel, it’s a striking piece. Part of

Me wishes I have the gold nato hardware too, but I’m sure they want an arm and leg for it.

A dream

That's really a dream watch in red gold case. I had the blue ceramic for 6 months before I sold it. It was a bit to big for my liking, what I regret a loooottt. 42mm and max. 12mm height are my limit for comfort as a main watch. Happy man who can say, tha...
