Sell it.


P.S. I'll say also that a person can love a watch, but wear it rarely. In that case, the answer would be different.

That’s a really good observation and point. I do think the Bathyscaphe is a stunning watch, especially this version. The depth of darkness with the dial contrasting against the matte case is beautiful. I love the way the indices have a subtle pop of bling when caught by light. In general, Blancpain is one of my favorite watch brands. I think the main reason I don’t wear it often is that it’s a tad bigger than I like, specifically the lug to lug length. I go through cycles where I love it and wear it, then where I think it’s too big and don’t wear it for extended periods. As I’m cleaning up my watch collection, I’m trying to decide what stays and what goes. This one causes me to struggle with a decision.
