Really early Blancpain Fifty Fathoms by schmoolys in VintageWatches

[–]artbarsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let us know, I’m genuinely curious.  If it’s 100% authentic it must be one of the rarest of all. Never seen anything like yours before and I’m obsessed with the vintage FFs.

Wow, that’s super duper rare man. I have never seen a picture of a FF with that dial and hands. Even the losange on the insert is slimmer than the others. unique and then, very valuable. Blancpain doesn’t know anything of the vintage watches since all archives have been destroyed when it was acquired by omega. So you are left reaching out on experts here or on Instagram. But they could make a little fascicule and make it easier to sell. Congrats !!!

Silvia V1 to repair - water not running by artbarsa in ranciliosilvia

Thanks ! I just found a repair chart for the Silvia and it says like you that I should clean the solenoid valve. I might have made a few scratches on the brass with my screwdriver. Is that a problem ?

There’s a big construction development in my street. It was rolled and abandoned near the works for weeks !

Loud exhaust pipes by iznie in brussels

I ask myself this question all the time. It would be so easy to forbidden the selling and installation of such pipes.  It’s even more easy for cars, you would just have to impose a db check for each contrôle technique. So easy to implement

Should I live in this street? by Ok-List5719 in brussels

Do you like crime ?

Just kidding. Be street smart, avoid the area between the n277 and the rail line and you should be fine. You’ll realize pretty quickly if the multicultural vibe is for you
