From a modern take on the world's first commercially available purpose-built dive watch to the Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe with a complete calendar and moon phase, there’s something for everyone. Shop Blancpain Learn More About The Brand BLANCPAIN FIFTY FATHOMS Hodinkee Shop WHY WE LOVE IT The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms held a pivotal role in the early years of underwater exploration, and its contemporary collection pays tribute to the original in a number of ways. Where the Fifty Fathoms operated as a straightforward tool watch in the 1950s, Blancpain is able to apply its haute horlogerie expertise to the watch today, resulting in the use of precious and unconventional metals, fine complications, and a level of handcraft that sets it apart from any other dive watch maker on the market.

Alongside a similar design in the greater Fifty Fathoms collection, this is the only dive watch in history to feature a triple calendar moon phase complication, as this has been a Blancpain specialty since the late 1980s. In fact, it was the aesthetic strength and technical complexity of the complete calendar with moon-phase display that Blancpain was able to build up a substantial following while the rest of the Swiss watch industry was still suffering from the aftereffects of the Quartz Crisis. Now, Blancpain reimagines one of its most complexly elegant dive watches complete with the lightness and rugged resistance of titanium and the luxuriousness of 18K red gold.
