Description
Introduced in 2015, the 500 Fathoms Limited Edition was created as a modern evolution of Blancpain’s legendary Fifty Fathoms line, first launched in 1953 as one of the world’s earliest true dive watches. The Fifty Fathoms became iconic through its use by naval divers and ocean explorers, and the 500 Fathoms pushed this legacy further with its oversized case, helium valve, and extreme depth rating. Limited in production, each piece carries a unique serial number — such as 81500 — underscoring its exclusivity. Today, the 500 Fathoms is celebrated among collectors as a rare and technically advanced continuation of Blancpain’s pioneering spirit in underwater horology, blending heritage with cutting‑edge engineering.
