I HAVE ONE WITH THE SAME MARKINGS ON THE SIDE AND BACK(DIFFERENT NUMBERS)  THAT I RECENTLY ACQUIRED IN AUSTRIA.  THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF QUESTION ABOUT THE MARKINGS.  HERE ARE SOME IMAGES.

WE ARE ASKING BLANCPAIN TO VERIFY THIS WATCH AS BEING GENUINE.  WILL ADVISE WHAT THEY SAY.
THEY MAY SAY THE WATCH IS CORRECT BUT THE MARKINGS????
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE YOU GET THE INFORMATION TO CONFIRM THIS AS BEING GENUINE?  ALSO STRANGE TWO SHOULD APPEAR IN VIRTUAL EXCELLENT CONDITION SO CLOSE TOGETHER.
I WOULD LIKE NOTHING BETTER THAN TO HAVE A GENUINE WATCH!

To be clear, Barakuda is not a watch, but a distributor.

Sorry to be a bit 'thick'. Are you saying there is a difference between Dr Strongs Barracuda and the one I posted? That his is genuine and mine is not? If so what is the difference please. Thanks

So if it was never in doubt that the Polish military or Navy used Blancpain watches why are the MW marked Fifty Fathoms so frowned upon ? Cheers

You mean the very same? Can you please post pics of the case back?

It is always interesting to see in what range the number is. Late 207 or early 208 xxx? Best, Nicolas
