Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatic 42mm 5010 1130 71S
A category-defining steel dive watch, now in 42mm
Launched in 1953, the Fifty Fathoms is the first true diver's watch. Created by a diver to meet the needs of underwater exploration, it was chosen by diving pioneers and combat diver corps around the world as a professional timekeeping instrument. With its water resistance, robust doubled-sealed crown, self-winding movement, contrasting dark dial with luminescent indications, lockable rotating bezel and anti-magnetic protection, the Fifty Fathoms has become an indispensable instrument for divers on their underwater missions. These key signature elements that established the Fifty Fathoms as the archetypal diver's watch continue to define the identity of such timepieces for the entire watch industry. This year, Blancpain has expanded the best-selling 42.3mm Fifty Fathoms collection to now include a stainless steel case for the first time. Housing powerful calibre 1315, this timepiece will provide watch lovers with precision, reliability, and performance, in a different size.
