Nice post! Out of the three watches, what is your favorite?
I have yet to try on the BP FF in person, but I plan to visit a boutique sometime this year to see it in person -- it (or maybe the SubC, I have yet to decide) might become my every day watch. Thanks again. |

Blancpain was first to show the FF, in 1953, with the Sub coming the following year.

Great pics. The FF looks nice but it's not even close...the sub looks way better.

I really like the Bathyscape, strongly considering one at the moment. You cannot argue with the Sub, but I am just over looking the same as everyone else, I had one for years and loved it but I want a change.....

The sub is an amazing piece but the FF surpasses it by a mile. The quality and detail it has makes the FF compensate for the difference in prices. Rolex is more inpress the non wis people while Blancpain is more to impress yourself.
