The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms collection was created in 1953 exclusively for the French elite divers unit. Since then it became to Blancpain what the Submariner is to Rolex, an exquisite dive watch which is elegant to be worn for almost any occasion and tough enough to withstand the depths of the ocean. The collection was recently relaunched with more models and a more advanced movement in the standard automatic version. The Fifty Fathoms collection is water resistant up until 300 meters and is available in automatic, Flyback Chronograph and Tourbillon versions in both steel, red gold and white gold.
