Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 70th Anniversary

Blancpain's Act 3 for the 70th anniversary of their Fifty Fathoms dive watch in Cannes unveils a limited edition tribute, the Fifty Fathoms 70th Anniversary Act 3. Crafted in vintage-inspired Bronze Gold, the reference number 5901-5630-NANA showcases a 41.3mm satin-brushed case with a black dial and a grey-white moisture indicator. The black ceramic bezel insert and vintage Super-LumiNova complement its aesthetics.

The automatic Blancpain 1154.P2 movement, a no-date variant of the 1151, operates at 3 Hz with a 100-hour power reserve. Limited to 555 pieces, embodying the spirit of the original Mil-Spec Fifty Fathoms in both design and size. This anniversary trilogy from Blancpain reveals their dive watch lineage, featuring modern, toolish designs and a nostalgic nod to the past. A striking contrast of black against Bronze Gold, paired with a nylon NATO-style strap, accentuates the watch's allure. Act 3 adds to the legacy, beautifully encapsulating seven decades of the iconic Fifty Fathoms.
