    Looks like a 50 euro watch you would pick up at the airport.

    I like it, quite a bold move for them.
    It's just a matter of time...

    Me too... it is quite bold... as you may remember I'm a sucker for Blue watches anyway as my short term goal is to 're obtain a 2531.80 Seamaster that dopey me sold rashly.....

    Love the blue case....

    don't like the word limited on sub dial rather irrationally and to be very very picky but it wouldn't bother me day to day I would certainly enjoy wearing it....

    I prefer bracelets normally but can see that on a black Brady sailcloth strap with blue stitching... or a blue one with white stitching.....

    My thought too. They do a couple of watches I love, but this ain't one of them!

    Blancpain has been on a long, slippery slope since Jean-Claude Biver left in the early 2000s.

    His successor, Marc Hayek, has overseen some appallingly bad designs ...

    If the word Blancpain was removed these look like something from the Invicta stable.
