WAKE UP!!! ZF FF Blue dial is out!!!
- Thread starter dadog13
- Start date
The white gold FF has a blue bezel and a blue strap, they're just very dark....
I would "imagine" that the regular blue steel version shares the same dark blue strap and bezel...Again, you absolutely cannot trust the color rendition of internet pics, on your computer, to be accurate.
I'm ordering one regardless, as history has taught us, the V2 may not be at all better...
note also the slightly ropey application of Gen lume in the 2nd pic...

Comparison from intime pics
The new ZF vs the old noob.
It looks like that the blue 'flinqué' dial is more refined in the new one, More detail, But it also looks like the new one colour of the flinque is not as shimmering as the old one.
Still... Need to see it in person and in the good lighting.

Gents, I've been to some ADs selling Blancpain and asked many times about the blue FF and they never have it. So chances of seeing a gen and getting upset with the wrong rep color are quite low.

Well here is a thing I have just been on BP site and the blue version no longer has the flinque dial.
Check it out.

The centre of the dial is now sunburst, so the watch we are all discussing is out of date.

The sunburst blue dial is an additional new model, it's brushed titanium, not steel....the steel flinque dial version is still available:

FWIW I really like the blue sunburst on the Nato....
I like it so much that I'm thinking of pulling the trigger as soon as I see more real-life pics and reviews. Pam 690 and AP 15400 need a blue brother
QC in, and I've just approved.
Guys, I'm buying this shit

So so tempted
Is there a mistake with the lume around the 45 marker or a bit of fluff

Based upon every picture and video I have seen of it so far.
It's on puretime now as well.
Maybe, maybe not. I'm hoping that ZF ( or a Japanese magazine), will do some side by sides of rep next to the gen watch used. I know from trying to take pics of my JF blue 15400, it's very difficult to capture the real base shade of the dial, let alone how it appears under multiple different lighting scenarios.
I'm pretty certain the color is good..there is no way they got the correct shade of the strap without having the gen...
I owned the noob blue fifty fathoms..and the shading to me isn't as nice as this one...based on pictures anyway..

You mean "soon" is side by side between ZF rep vs Gen by the factory ?
Or side by side between ZF vs Noob by you ?
I also very curious want to see it side by side with the gen.
