BLANCPAIN × SWATCH FIFTY FATHOMS ATLANTIC OCEAN

The Blancpain Swatch is a canvas of elegance, bathed in a captivating smoked fume-style blue. This unique colouration transitions from a deep, dark shade at the edges to a lighter, more ethereal hue at the centre. Featuring a groundbreaking Sistem 51, this Blancpain Swatch Watch boasts an automatic movement distinguished by a patented configuration of 51 intricately designed parts secured by a single central screw, setting it apart from the ordinary. The inaugural release of this timepiece occurred on September 9, 2023, unveiling five distinctive variations, each possessing a unique and individualized charm.

Noteworthy features of FIFTY FATHOMS ATLANTIC OCEAN include signature crown guards, a bio-sourced scratch-resistant crystal display, and a discreet yet distinctive date window. The meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful design details transform it into a premium fashion statement, setting it apart from the Swatch X Omega Moonswatch, each possessing its own captivating allure.

Numerals at '12,' '3,' '6,' and '9,' are observed on the looped-faced watch. The watch's lugs bear the mark of precision, taking inspiration from the Blancpain x Swatch Atlantic Ocean design. Fastened to NATO-styled straps these straps go beyond function by being crafted from recycled fishing nets. Adorning these straps is a buckle featuring the distinctive fifty fathoms insignia, adding both flair and functionality.

Flipping the watch unveils an intriguing laser-printed depiction of a sea creature called Nudibranch, a creature known for its "naked gill" and exposed toxin extremities. Below this marine-inspired artwork, a laser imprint of sea waves ties the thematic elements together seamlessly.

The infusion of modern branding elements, including Blancpain and Swatch logos, the fifty fathoms script, and the Swatch Scuba emblem, adds a contemporary touch to the timeless design.
