dorgenss Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 What is your opinion about Phong Blancpain ? The only Blancpain rep, but the price....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Beautiful piece, but the radiation emblem on the dial puts me off. There are other vintage models that are more subtle and I think he'd sell a lot more. This is a perpetual empty spot in the rep world, and people have been clamoring for years for a good Fifty Fathoms, at a price lower than Phong. Heck even a rep of the current retro model with the sapphire bezel insert... THAT would be hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgi Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have a feeling that a FF rep is going to come out eventually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt.watch.obsessive Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 The problem is that all the fakes use more or less the same aqua lung dial. I'm not sure why they don't do one of the more classic dials, especially since this is (I believe) a 41-42mm case. I have seen gens with no space between the "no" and the "radiations" but if I were making a fake, I would also put a space there so it doesn't look like an error. BTW, I contacted phong about buying just the case so I could put in a gen dial, but he would not sell anything but the whole watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
