 By: whichwatch : June 28th, 2005-07:07
The Blancpain 50 Fathoms Anniversary watch was released in a LE of three sets of 50 each (total 150 pieces) in late 2003/early 2004. The watch sold out extremely quickly. It took quite a while for the first units to reach the United States, and it appears...

The mother of all sport watches ...

. . .an extraordinarily lovely watch, which I think is very hard to give an impression of in pictures. You've done a fantastic job on a great piece; congratulations, and may you have much joy of it! Jack

Better buy a Seadweller then!

This watch is horribly over-rated.

I already have a Sea Dweller. That's why

I bought this. Different strokes for different folks, but in my opinion it is no contest!...

Great side by side picture. I wish that. . .

Your pictures captured and amplified your feelings on the vintage look of this watch very well. I especially like the look of the bezel and curved crystal...two things which remind me of dive watches of the past. Wishing you many years of enjoyment. Thank...

Thanks Paul. Glad you enjoyed it. The bezel
