Review-Blancpain: An in-depth review of Blancpain's Le Brassus Split Second Flyback Perpetual
So I've had this watch for over a month now and wanted to do more of an in depth review of this special piece made by Blancpain.........
Let’s start with the boxes, I've owned tons of watches over the last five years and nothing comes close to topping this one. I was even able to get the humidor set for it so this makes it the first watch box that I've ever actually used!
The cigars!
Here's an up close shot of the temperature gauge.
The main concern for me about getting this watch at first was the busy dial, there are numbers all over the place. I have to admit that it's kind of hard to follow everything going on here but I do have to say that the dial has really grown on me over the last month or so.
This is a watch that when the sunlight hits the dial at certain angles its the nicest looking piece that I've ever seen and at other angles the watch just looks good if you know what I mean. I wish that I was able to capture this in my pictures, Rob who owns this piece as well does. Maybe he can share some photos if he reads this.
Here are the chrono pushers, the center crown has an extra pusher in it that operates the split seconds function. The flyback function is operated by the bottom chrono pusher. The movement is an F. Piguet caliber I believe.
