The special features of the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique Reference 5015-1130-52B:
- Iconic Design in a Contemporary Guise: Reference 5015-1130-52B retains the essential design characteristics of the original Fifty Fathoms – the large, clear dial, the prominent bezel, and the robust construction. At the same time, it is presented in a modern 45mm stainless steel case that makes an impressive statement both on the wrist and underwater.
- Highly Functional Unidirectional Sapphire Bezel: One of the most recognizable features of the Fifty Fathoms is its diving bezel. In this reference, the unidirectional rotating bezel is fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire insert, which gives it unparalleled depth and a luxurious sheen. The clear markings ensure precise and safe measurement of dive time.
- Impressive Water Resistance for Professional Demands: True to the legacy of the Fifty Fathoms, this model offers outstanding water resistance of up to 30 Bar (approx. 300 meters). This makes it a reliable companion for challenging dives and all maritime activities.
- Excellent Legibility in All Situations: The deep, often black dial features large, luminescent Arabic numerals and indices, which, along with the broad, also luminescent hands, ensure optimal legibility in all lighting conditions, especially underwater.
- Exclusive Manufacture Movement Blancpain Caliber 1315: At the heart of reference 5015-1130-52B beats the highly precise and robust Blancpain Manufacture Caliber 1315. This automatic movement is specifically designed for dive watches and is characterized by an impressive power reserve of 120 hours (5 days), three mainspring barrels, and an extremely reliable construction. The elaborate finishing of the movement can often be admired through the sapphire case back.
- Comfortable and Durable Sailcloth Strap (Ref. 52B): This reference typically comes with a high-quality black sailcloth strap (code 52B). This strap is not only extremely resistant to water and saltwater but also offers high wearing comfort and lends the watch a sporty yet elegant look.
- Sapphire Case Back for Movement Observation: A sapphire case back provides a view into the finely decorated manufacture caliber 1315, a rarity in dive watches of this category and further testament to Blancpain's watchmaking mastery.
