Explore five enchanting new Blancpain creations that celebrate vibrant colours and intricate textures

Since its debut in 1953, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms recently celebrated its 70th anniversary. The revolutionary diver's watch set the gold standard for the entire industry and have stood the test of time. For the momentous occasion, Blancpain introduced the 42 mm Fifty Fathoms 70th Anniversary Act 1, a limited edition that captured the hearts of watch enthusiasts worldwide. This year, the excitement continues with the launch of the new 42mm Fifty Fathoms Automatique models, also featuring the high-performance Calibre 1315. This automatic marvel boasts a robust and accurate five-day power reserve, thanks to its trio of series-coupled barrels.
Maintaining the timeless elegance of their predecessors, the new Fifty Fathoms Automatique comes in two stunning options - luxurious red gold and ultra-sleek grade 23 titanium. The red gold variant exudes sophistication and chic allure, while the grade 23 titanium version offers a sporty edge with its lightweight feel and exceptional resistance to scratches and corrosion. This top-quality titanium is also anti-allergenic, ensuring comfort for all wearers. Additionally, the collection&rsquo;s iconic sapphire-topped bezel not only adds to the watch's durability but also guarantees crystal-clear legibility at all times.

At the heart of these new Fifty Fathoms Automatique watches beats the remarkable Calibre 1315. This in-house designed, built, produced, assembled, and adjusted movement delivers unmatched chronometric precision, making it a true masterpiece of watchmaking. Equipped with a stop-seconds function, the watch allows for pinpoint precision when setting the time. The calibre, decorated to the highest haute horlogerie standards, boasts a luxurious red gold oscillating rotor, adorned with an NAC coating and inspired by the original 1953 rotor design.
These stunning timepieces are now available with either a blue or black dial, and both the red gold and titanium versions offer a fantastic array of strap options. Available are sail-canvas, NATO, or Tropic textured rubber straps that echo the vintage style of the 1953 model. Alternatively, for those who prefer metal bracelets instead, the titanium version includes a matching titanium bracelet, completing this elegant and versatile collection.
