Just found this Blancpain section of the forum - great stuff. I am a Blancpain fan from Norway with 3 BP watches in my collection (purchase year in certificate in brackets):
Two of my three BPs
- Bathyscaphe 38 Blue (2026)
- Fifty Fathoms Tribute to Milspec (2017)
- Léman Aqua Lung Grande Date (2016)
The Bathyscaphe is currently being serviced by BP due to some transportation damage. A picture of the orher two is attached.
I think BP is one of the most fascinating watch brands out there, and the Blancpain Blog is a great source of diving into the history and the wonderful timepieces through the years.
Two of my three BPs
Welcome here! Your BPs look fantastic . . . we'll be looking for a lot of photos :-)
Hope your newest watch gets back in your hands quickly.
Again, welcome!

Thanks! The Bathyscaphe has been away for approx. 3 months, so I hope it is back soon…

Welcome, Norw80!
Great trio of Blancpain’s you have assembled!
Hopefully you’ll get your 5100 back in no time.
Here’s a photo of mine to help make the wait a little easier.
Looking forward to seeing you in the forums,
Have a great Sunday,
Alex

A warm welcome!
That's a nice set you have there! Although my first love is dive watches I have always had a soft spot for the Aqualung, big or small date. We're all patiently waiting for an Aqualung reissue!

That would be something! It is a great mix or sporty and elegant.

Thanks! The strap is a little bit too long, so I have ordered a shorter from Delugs. Looking forward to receiving it.

Thanks. For completeness, here is a picture of my Bathyscaphe before it went to Switzerland…

Welcome!
The Leman is a great watch. I consider it for myself. As an owner of a Bathyscaphe 43 I like the 38, too. Maybe the one with the better proportions. Wish they did a 40mm Bathyscaphe
