Love the FF re-issue
This watch looks very cool. And IMHO very nice with the date, unlike other comments above.
But I am afraid to ask--is this 45mm? Hard to reconcile a vintage re-issue in a case oversized even by modern standards. Please tell me the case is smaller, and I will place my order..........
Baselworld 2010 : All Blancpain Novelties
1) Blancpain Carrousel Répétition Minute-Le Brassus. A huge year for Blancpain at Basel—4 new movements debut (and this is on top of the 7 new movements that were introduced in the two and a half previous years). At the top of the pyramid for 2010 is no l...
2 very nice pieces, Jeff...
The L Evo Caroussel is really superb! I love a lot the idea on this watch, the play of light, the transparency...Less is indeed more. Another " Less is more " watch is the new 8 Days using the 13 RO. Beautiful on the dial side, magnificiently understated,...
Add comment on the "no-Rad" FF
while the marker was purposedly made to give vintage look, it appears too small relative to dial and hands and do not bode well with the sapphire bezel. larger marker with WG fringe (like the 2007 model) would have been much better and of-course San date ...
Thank you....
for a great report.... Blancpain appears to be walking on a modern path since last year..... I find the no radiation FF interesting but I would prefer no date.... cheers

Thank you Jeff for the write up!
I hope to hear the Blancpain Carrousel Répétition Minute-Le Brassus someday soon. Your praise regarding this piece has me very keen to hear this loud and crisp minute repeater. A very nice year for Blancpain!
amazing
some of the pieces are to admire, the others to love, and some are ORDINARY. Thanks. Faisal
I don't like the FF...
the logo seems too small and out of place on this current reedition, like inconsistent with the watch finishing. Cheers Jeff
A good year for Blancpain.
Let's start with the ones I don't like: The L-Evolution Phase de lune and semainier with their huge figures and the Super Trofeo. I'm not over excited by the Villeret Moonphase, I already find them old-fashioned. BUT I really love the L-Evolution Carrouse...
I nearly died of dehydration...
cos I drooled too much!! My favourite out of these is the 13R0 movement... and that enamel dial.... Blancpain seems to be raising the bar for the game!!!
