Impressive collection of Blancpains. Which one is your favorite? I’ve been on the fence with the green flyback chrono for some time now.

Wow, thanks for the pics! The new bathyscaphe looks great but that mop FF is going to take some getting used to. I remember the first when the first shots of that came out and I was hoping it was a pre-production model and the final release would actually look.... not like that at all

Oh well, at least the new bathy and air command are awesome.

Thanks. Does the brushed (vs polished) bezel still reflect light similarly or is it noticeably less (or non-existant)?

I purchased a Fifty Fathoms Mil Spec in 40mm and while it's a really nice watch (I posted a thread on this) I ultimately realized that the original in 45mm is the one I like most.

A lot of times, certain watches look better in pictures then they do in person (some of you know what I mean). The Fifty Fathoms 5015 is the exact opposite. It's better in person and pics don't do it justice.

Do you prefer the 5015 on the strap or bracelet? Thanks

I like the 40 but I think the 45 is nicer too. I’ve owned both and regret selling them.
