Pre-Owned Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe — Ref. 5000-0130-B52A

Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe — Ref. 5000-0130-B52A

The Fifty Fathoms established the modern dive watch in 1953. The Bathyscaphe is its everyday expression — slimmer, more wearable, but carrying the same 300m water resistance and genuine dive credentials without compromise. The grey ceramic and black dial configuration is the most understated pairing in the current lineup. No color, no contrast, no ornamentation. Just a serious dive watch that wears like anything but.

The 43.6mm satin-brushed grey ceramic case pairs with a matching black ceramic unidirectional rotating bezel and black dial — a monochromatic palette that reads differently depending on the light. Presented on the original black sailcloth strap, a signature Blancpain detail that gives the watch a texture and character no rubber or leather can replicate.

This example has been pressure and vacuum tested and passed both — documented confidence for a watch built to perform underwater.

Condition: Very Good. Dated 2021. Full set with box and papers. Note: inner box travel case shows flaking on the interior lining.
