Wanted a “factory fresh, never touched by sweaty hands” example and finally picked it up today.

It doesn't get any better, beside my awful pictures at the AD.

How some of you can take beautiful pictures at the jeweler is beyond me.

Why? Because for years and years I liked this watch but was thrown off by the size, although the closeup pictures might suggest otherwise this watch wears much smaller and feels like a 42.

I am happy to add this icon to my collection. I couldn't wait any longer as I wanted a brand new one and reading here and there something new might be coming I jumped.

Nice!

I have a fifty fathoms as well and it is way nicer than a lot of my well known watch brands!

I just got it back from service too a few weeks ago and is now my daily.

Enjoy that watch!

Congratulations. I love BP but just too big for me.

Huge congrats...it's my grail diver. Such an amazing piece; it really looks great on your wrist too

Thanks !

I really have grown to love it in a short amount of time.

Congrats, Denis! This is a very nice watch, I've got a great deal of respect for it and the brand. I'm a huge fan of the fact it's more of an enthusiast brand vs. something everyone is talking about. Enjoy in good health.

How big is it?

Beautiful!

Congrats! Good choice. If they discontinue the 5015 in the next release I'm buying all the FF variants, such a great watch and killer value.

The bezel protrudes the case quite much. All in all it's a very comfortable watch to wear and feels great on my wrist. (17.5cm)

Thanks everyone else for the well wishes, it's appreciated!

This in on my target list, but unfortunately for me, I'm becoming flat broke from my watch purchases. I need to start off-loading to make room for this.

But my watches are like my children......so hard to let go.

Congrats on the new FF !
Curious to hear your thoughts as to how it compares with your GO
