This Fifty Fathsoms Bathyscaphe Titanium holds special significance as the first titanium-cased timepiece in Blancpain’s Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe line. The case is crafted from Grade 23 titanium, a titanium alloy containing trace amounts of aluminum and vanadium. This composition offers superior stability and toughness compared to standard Grade 5 titanium, while remaining exceptionally lightweight for comfortable wear.

The 43mm case features a satin-brushed finish. The unidirectional rotating bezel is fitted with a dark grey ceramic insert. The distinctive grey hue of titanium lends the entire watch a sense of precision and engineering professionalism, complemented by a military-style grey NATO strap. It maintains professional-grade 300-meter water resistance.

The dark grey dial follows the classic three-hand layout. The hour markers and hands are coated with beige Super-LumiNova for excellent legibility, and the date window is positioned between 4 and 5 o’clock. The dial itself is adorned with a vertical satin-brushing technique, offering a refined texture under light.

Power comes from the Caliber 1315 self-winding movement, operating at 28,800 vph. This movement is equipped with a silicon balance spring for effective resistance to strong magnetic fields. Its three series-coupled mainspring barrels provide an impressive 5-day (120-hour) power reserve. The fine decoration and beveling on the movement bridges can be admired through the sapphire crystal caseback.

The official price is €10,800.
