Blancpain

Here is a couple photos of my vintage Blancpain collection.  Brian

An impressive, breathless FF Family you have here!

It is always interesting and enjoying to see such are birds as the Baraccuda and the Michanny, while we often mention the other myths such as the Milspec and the Tornek.

Your bases are pretty well covered, maybe an early FF Rotomatic Incabloc or a 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 ( but I will never forgive you to not have contacted me before selling yours ).  

Isn't that cool to know that the way to end this thema is much shorter, with all these beauties in your collection?

I knew you had several, but this family pic speaks very loud.

Thanks for the share, my friend.

Nicolas.

 

I think you are correct on needing a early 1st period Blancpain for my collection.  I owned the 3-6-9-12 and it was just too civilized for me. And i want to thank you for all your help and advice you have given me over the years to acquire these beauties.  FYI i really love your Pakistanese!   Brian

Seems that some FFs are easier to catch on the US Ground, while others are much more European.

Let's hope that our journey will still be rich and pleasant, Brian.

Best,

Nicolas.

Very nice Brian,

Congrats on the 3H - looking very good.

A nice all round collection - Milspec, No Rad, the very rare...

and I like the Baracuda too. Recent addition?

 

cheers Tony

 

Tony the baracuda was purchased on ebay 5 months ago but had it serviced at Jacks and replaced the crystal.  So she is running in top shape.  The bund came in a couple weeks ago with the advice of you(thanks).  You are my resident expert on the Bund 3h?  Thanks Brian

Beautiful collection of FF, Brian

Alain,  Thanks.  That bronze case went to another member here on the forum.  Brian

...Brian, keep up the hunt

You will need to buy two more Blancpains to keep the next collection picture well balanced.

Stunning collection all in wonderful condition.

But the real question is which two watches?  Any suggestion would be greatly  appreciated!  Brian

they only get rarer and harder to find!

I'm partial to the gilt dials without numbers

3/6/9/12 and Rotomatic Incabloc...

Or US Navy and Pakistanese?



Best,

Nicolas.

i was thinking of a chronograph and a Pakistanese.  Both are equally hard to locate!
