In recent days, Blancpain has released the permanent model of the Fifty Fathoms series. This watch not only has a superb appearance, but is also equipped with a top-notch movement developed by itself. It is really exciting! Do you want to know the status of this watch in the world of diving watches? What other design details make people fall in love with them? Read on to take you deeper into the charm of this watch!

Blancpain Fifty Fathoms series permanent model released

Recently, Blancpain, the top Swiss watch brand, officially released the Fifty Fathoms series permanent model (model: 501912B3064A). This watch is priced at RMB 179,000. As one of the earliest diving watch series in the world, the Fifty Fathoms has always been loved by watch fans for its exquisite watchmaking craftsmanship and technological innovation. The release of this permanent model shows us Blancpain’s determination to attract a wider range of daily wearers.

In terms of movement technology, the permanent model is equipped with Cal. 1315A self-winding movement developed by Blancpain itself, with a vibration frequency of 28800VPH and a power reserve of 120 hours, which is already a very good level among similar products. Moreover, the polishing of the movement is also first-class, which can even be said to be eye-catching. In comparison, Rolex’s deep-sea Ghost King and Ulysse Nardin’s Diver X are somewhat inferior in this regard.

Blancpain is also very ingenious in the design of the strap. The design of the quick-release strap allows the wearer to easily change the strap. There are three colors to choose from: black, orange and white. This humanized design concept undoubtedly greatly improves the wearer’s experience.

BOC Heart of the Ocean Limited Edition

However, it is worth mentioning that Blancpain canceled the 3-hour chronograph function in the BOC Ocean Heart Limited Edition released in 2024, which still makes many watch fans regret it. In the use of diving watches, the application of the 3-hour timing function has become an industry standard. Although the 60-minute timing is enough for most users, we still hope that Blancpain can take into account the needs of professional diving users.

In addition, the size of this limited edition has also been reduced, from the original 47 mm to 45 mm, making it more suitable for female users and male users with thinner wrists.

Conclusion

In short, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms series permanent model is undoubtedly a practical and beautiful diving watch, especially the design of the quick-release strap, which really takes the wearer into consideration. The lack of timing function in the BOC Heart of the Ocean Limited Edition is still a little disappointing. What do you think of Blancpain’s operation?
