Title: Coming full circle: Blancpain Fifty Fathoms
Post by: mikeylacroix on February 22, 2016, 05:24:21 PM

It was one of those pieces that just seemed a bit out of my league when I first got infected...
got a chance to get one at a good price.
Loving it.

comfy caseback...I can imagine if its a seethru caseback would make a thick watch already thicker?

lots of depth in the dial

the domed crystal is both stunning and hard to photograph
