·I recently acquired this 260th Anniversary model. Although I don't need a dress watch, I wanted the Moon-Phase complication and my wife liked the guilloche dial. The wife liked part made this all possible. I've since ordered new Blancpain strap in brown to go with the Rose Gold case.

Wow Wow! this is amazing, looks very classic. Is this the one with annual calendar?

·I'd love a Fifty Fathoms, new or vintage.
A bit concerned about the size versus my wrist, but...

·Having just read a great write-up on a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe, I was inspired to post a picture of my Blancpain Rattrapante (Cal. 1186). I'm a big fan of BP.
And so i thought: are there other Blancpain fans on this forum? Post pictures of your BP, please.
PS. I am also an Omega fan, obviously.
Very cool piece. What year/vintage is that one? I was not familiar with their rattrapante.

·They are making pieces for god fearing people as well 😁 !
Their model at this link shows a Hindu god Ganesha - https://www.blancpain.com/en/villeret/shakudo-6615-3615-55b

I am a God fearing person! The watch looks beautiful. We workship Ganesh before initiating an important task. They have capture Ganesh beautifully in the watch.

Have never seen this before but looks quite nice. Reminds me of the vintage enamel dials.

·Tomorrow is the moment of truth. Will it indicate Monday April 1? On April 5, will it indicate a New Moon?
These are the questions that keep me up at night...😉

·The Blancpain Rattrapante (Cal. 1186) in the initial post is from the 1990s. It is small by today’s standards at 34mm. However, I find that for dress watches 33 - 36 mm work for me.
Thanks for sharing so many great pictures of BP watches. They are all beautiful time pieces. The moon phase immediately preceding this post, for example, is drop-dead gorgeous. Thanks again.

·Newest acquisition. One problem the bezel needs to be put on it’s at the watch maker now. The inner groove has worn quite a bit so the clip is having a hard time holding the bezel on. But with fingers crossed I’m hoping for some magic to happen. But anyway here is a few pics. Please let me know what y’all think. TY
