Blancpain 1953 Fifty Fathom

Jun 26, 2014,18:30 PM
 

Hello,


I was wondering what people think of this piece?


This is my concern. This version of the dial seems very rare online in pictures, especially aged. In fact, I can only find newer looking versions of this dial without much aging unless it is a LIP version. I'm wondering if this is a later service replacement dial.

Does anyone have information on this? My only clue for making this assumption is because of this thread where the owner mentions that his milspec dial was replaced by Blancpain  to a RI dial during a service in 2006.

Thanks!

Crud, I don't post here often (well, ever really), so I didn't see the thing about not posting links to sites that sell things. If someone could edit out the first two links in the post above, everyone can see the same dial in the second thread that shows... 

I edited as per our forum rules: No links on commercial websites. BUT.

I can tell you that the dial is a service dial. Like the one on the TZ link you posted. Best, Nicolas

Thanks! [nt]
