Fifty fathoms vs deep sea

Hi own the deep sea and love the watch in rotation with my others, and just last week ordered the FF the model listing for 13800 after the may 1 price hike. I love both for different reasonsb, like which car ibfeel like driving on weekends my M3 or my 911 cab, just take each day by how u feel and you won't go wrong with either, they both sing

Both are killer watches..

I both but decided to get rid of one...Sold the DSSD (never looked back) and went the BP FF, IMO its the most beautiful Dive watch out there with a refined yet durable movement ...it doesn't get better then the iconic Blancpain FF.
It's a billion times better looking in the flesh



The DSSD is a beast and is one killer watch also but just not as cool as the FF

Keep in mind that AD's will discount the FF pretty heavily, as much as 35% I think.

A Freudian typo, as people have been known to stroke their watches. :)
