Beautiful Nico, both of them :) I think the hands on your watch adds an extra something, maybe more definition or contrast ...:) [nt]

I would have hard time deciding which one is my favorite, here... [nt]

Plus - I don't think I have seen two examples with both bezels with no cracks... [nt]

Yes, quite rare, in this condition. Thanks, Will. [nt]

Original crown?

What would be the original crown for these Blancpain Fifty Fathoms? As I see that both have a different crown or are both crowns original to these type of watches?

That's a very good question. I would say the smaller one is the right one. [nt]

I agee with you. Small is correct. Brian [nt]

Thanks for the confirmation. [nt]

Do you have live pics of the Nageurs de Combat? [nt]

 
By: India Whiskey Charlie : September 15th, 2019-11:26

No, but I have this one, which has to be credited to Blancpain.

Merci [nt]

You see the inspiration and the differences... [nt]

 
By: amanico : September 15th, 2019-12:04

Yes!

Too bad it doesn't have the Rotomatic's wider and flat bezel and the no date dial.

And the size is a tad too big, too. [nt]

Yours is a dream watch

 
By: MTR : September 15th, 2019-13:59
and my personal favorite, Nico! It‘s refreshing without the date and with this special bezel. Best Thomas

Thanks, Thomas. [nt]

I think the simplicity of the dial is amazing. It has no numbers just cool shapes. Brian [nt]

 
By: Briandumais : September 16th, 2019-05:40

Yes, Brian. A very " peaceful " dial. [nt]

 
By: amanico : September 16th, 2019-05:44

Another dial with numbers
