Blancpain FF vs Bathyscape
Hi all. What you guys think between the original FF or modern Bathyscape? . I have a blue FF Chrono flyback and love it so much, also the dial texture. This time I want to get something simple from FF collection add to my gail list. I have been calling around to check for the limited edition of the FF no radiation and Aqualung, luckily they're still carry some. Which one would you pick? Between vintage and modern.
AQUALUNG and Bathyscape are brushed finish and beautiful case back) No Radiation and normal FF black dial (polished finish, close case back). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I'd go with modern FF, normal face. Not a fan of the Bathyscape.

No radiations fan for as long as I can remember studying vintage divers.
The bathescaps is a cool watch but only the new chrono IMHO. |

That FF Tribute to Aqua Lung is just ridiculously gorgeous
![]() The Bathy is a very nice watch - one that really needs to be seen for real to appreciate

I love the Tribute to Aqualung and the Bathyscape Chrono of the models I do not own. I also love the look of the classic FF, but that one I have.

I like the No Radiation a lot. The hands on the Bathyscape drive me nuts.

I love the look and feel of the classic FF especially curve sapphire bezel. 80% lean towards to the classic and 20‰ for the Bathyscape because of the unusual vintage and modern design + open case back is what I want.
