Looks like the first batch was released and sold out. Priced at 395BP= $650US I think.

Yep! And I ordered mine immediately!   I wonder how many he has this time?

I've already gotten a "dispatch" that it is ON ITS WAY!! 

I have to say: I've looked and looked at the original PR-50, and the MK II series, and finally came to believe that THIS one looks like nothing I already have.  That domed crystal is a beauty!  And the NOS movement, for me, is a plus, also.

I've got an Omega Mesh waiting for it!!

I have looked and looked and looked at this watch...and while I find it very attractive, I can see absolutely no difference between it and the original other than a reworkd dial, a dome crystal and a new bezel insert.  I could be wrong!

there are many versions by year of the vintage Blancpain Fifty Fathoms...below are 2 links that can help identify them and Eddie has done a great job recreating two of them in homage imho...so although they may look similar they are different ..I prefer the latest model by Eddiehand6.gif

I do like this version very much (and I really like the NOS AS movement) and will probably end up with one, but I still only see the differences mentioned....from Eddie's site  description of the 50-B...

"The manufacturing drawing for the case and movement detail is identical to the PRS-50 shown further down this page, the only differences are the detail for the domed acrylic crystal on this version. "
