Blancpain FF bezel font/color differ in batches?

[c888]

I noticed there are differences in the bezel font and color on Blancpain FF (noob).. i assume there were changes in batches.. I've been told the first batches had slimmer font and more yellow color and newer ones are now more white...

What's the correct to gen version? or are there variances in the gen too?

Hi c888,

about bezel font i have no clue, but the more yellow color is more genlike. Also the AR on the newer batches is less coloured. And so the earlier batches are more correct also. A friend of mine has a gen and I noticed the difference in bezel color immediately.

Thanks PAMaholic

so the color on new batches are off..
were there 2 or 3 batch variations? From looking at past pics.. first batch yellow slimmer font, newest batch has white fatter font. Was there a middle batch with fatter font, yellow font?

About bezel font. The one listed on PT has the slimmer font.. can tell by the '5'. but current new batches have a fatter font.

does gen FF has similar differences?

Don't believe so (just visit Blancpain section on watchprosite). Very noticeable in the straps photo thread. The latest lume are a bit too white.
