Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe

This is the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe ref. 5000-0240-O52A. The best all-around, pound-for-pound dive watch on the market, and this is the most desirable version of it. It's a ceramic-cased piece on an indestructible sailcloth textile strap - perfectly balanced for the 43mm case size. Beautiful blue sunburst, ultra-legible dial with thick lume bars on the hands. A wearable, lightweight, out-of-the-ordinary dive piece with just the right amount of color. This particular example shows only a few signs of wear - some minor surface scratching with no dings, dents, or deep scratches. The strap is in good preowned condition and shows minor creases. Includes the original double box with Pelican box and travel case, booklets, and the original warranty card. Keeping perfect time and functioning to spec.
