Looking to add a Blainpain to my collection, love the plain simple dial & undeniable quality
Does anyone have experience of these beautiful watches, don't care for the 50 fathoms but am drawn to the dress watches

You should also look at the Bathyscaphe, a much more elegant dive watch.

Not keen on that one, look at the date window position and the case back, large case small movement syndrome

Blancpain is up there with the very best. Big in Europe but less loved in the UK. The Villeret line is very cool. No one does white space like Blancpain.

There is a simplicity to these watches that is beautiful and at the right used market price they make a great dress/otherwise watch
I also want a different watch &, also blaincpain have a legacy and history that is up there with the best
I like also the moonphase date apertures - leman collection - simple but stunning
This will defo be an addition to the sub & roo as its also radically different to those 2
