Vintage Blancpain Fifty Fathoms

Nice! But I cannot help noticing the BP is running fast compared to the 5514. Simply unforgivable! I don't know how you can bear it. Please send it to me (either one) and I'll eliminate the concerns for you.

Speaking of fake Blancpains, there's a listing for a Fifty Fathoms (#140455836081) that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Precista PRS-50. If that isn't sufficiently suspicious, there's also the infamous "MW7705" caseback engraving, which is akin to the "A/254/67" commonly found on fake RN Seamasters. Interesting story in the description, though, about why everything looks so new!

Well, I had a chance to exchange some emails with the owner previous to the one I purchased this Fifty Fathoms from; rather interesting story actually. The watch was discovered 3 years ago at a vendor that sells vintage gens of all things. So, no real lead or clues on where the watch originated, but still rather odd :)
