Blancpain Léman Owner Review : Graceful, refined and pleasant

Blancpain is a prestigious brand whose models have never really attracted me. The Fifty Fathoms that I found too large and the other collections a little too dressed for my taste kept me away from the brand until the discovery of this chronograph that immediately seduced me. This 40 mm diameter watch with its large date, its transparent caseback, its retro-style Arabic numeral indexes and its crocodile strap with folding clasp seduced me right away. I bought it about fifteen years ago by going back and forth to the AD to try it on and finally let myself be convinced when, on the eve of his retirement, he offered me an interesting discount. I replaced the strap that was too delicate for me with a rubber crocodile imitation from RubberB.
