After years of self questioning and cheapness just bought "My Grail"

Yes yes we all know there are mega buck Big Three watches out there but for pure simplicity, reliability, and daily wear bulletproofness I'm going with a Blancpain 50 fathoms in stainless.
This purchase process has taken a few years. I tend to overanalyze.
Its all about the hunt. That's the fun.

So being patient got a great deal on a NIB watch for < half price.

The BP 50 fathoms is truly THE iconic dive watch. Which means its way OK for normal daily wear and abuse.
Which fits me to a T.
I'm a landscape lighting designer / installer that actually digs trenches and puts his paws in the dirt or up in the trees.
I have pretty much destroyed any value to a Ball Trieste worn over the years. Destroyed Casio G shocks.
.

Going to test the 50 fathoms.
