Blancpain Fifty Fathoms “No Radiation” Bundeswehr, with Blancpain Heritage service papers.<\/p>\n

A magnificent watch that could tell us a story or two. It certainly shows the signs of that history\u2014specifically, the wear and tear from rigorous diving operations by the German Navy\u2019s combat swimmers.<\/p>\n

The case clearly reflects this history of active use, yet impresses overall with its excellent condition and appears to be unpolished. The caseback features a perfectly preserved Bundeswehr engraving. I have had the privilege of offering three of these watches previously and the engraving on this particular piece is the best yet. Definitely untouched!<\/p>\n

The “No Radiation” dial is a visual beauty,with minor imperfections. The “No Radiation” symbol stands out beautifully with sharp print and excellent color. The zinc sulfide lume material is fully intact and displays a lovely patina.<\/p>\n

As is common with these dials, the minute track between the 8 and 9 o’clock positions show some wear, and the “SWISS” print has faded slightly.<\/p>\n

The set of hands is, of course, original to the dial and in excellent condition for its age.<\/p>\n

The bezel is superb\u2014specifically the original early version featuring darker numerals and 5-minute markers. This is exceptional, as many bezels were replaced over time due to cracking. This example is wonderfully preserved and enhances the watch’s immense charm.<\/p>\n

This Blancpain “Bund” comes with comprehensive service documentation from Blancpain dated 2024. A full service costing over \u20ac4,000 was performed and documented. This provides the assurance that the watch requires no maintenance for the foreseeable future and confirms that all components are authentic.<\/p>\n

Conclusion: Character, history, and a comprehensive service from the manufacturer. This is what makes a vintage \u00a0watch a true joy to own.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
