42mm of pure dive watch goodness.
Blancpain is perhaps most renowned for its iconic diver, the Fifty Fathoms, has just unveiled the latest addition to this esteemed collection: the 42 mm-diameter Fifty Fathoms Automatique. Slightly smaller, but still standing tall, these legendary divers are offered in red gold and titanium.
While the Fifty Fathoms charts its origins back to 1953, this most recent model goes back to 2007 when Blancpain launched the 45 mm Fifty Fathoms Automatique, powered by the specially developed Calibre 1315. This bold new take on the old formula heralded a new era for the Fifty Fathoms series.
Now, in response to popular demand, Blancpain introduces a model powered by the Calibre 1315 in a sleek 42 mm diameter, promising uncompromising performance and reliability.
The allure of the new Fifty Fathoms Automatique models lies not only in their impeccable craftsmanship but also in the choice of materials. Available in red gold and grade 23 titanium, these timepieces exude elegance and sportiness in equal measure. The grade 23 titanium,is lightweight yet durable, while the timeless allure of red gold adds a hefty sophistication.
On top of this, there’s plenty of options that allow you to wear the Fifty Fathoms your way. Blancpain offers a variety of customization options, including blue or black dials and a range of matching straps crafted from sail-canvas, NATO, or Tropic textured rubber. A titanium bracelet option is also available.
With its long-awaited smaller diameter and a myriad of combinations to choose from, the new Fifty Fathoms Automatique models show that the storied diver has a bright future.
