The round case is made from stainless steel, measuring 34 mm in diameter. The timekeeping instrument is submersible to 50 meters. An elegant winding crown is traditionally located at 3 o’clock. Furthermore, the graceful lugs offer an amazing look to the timekeeper.

To accompany with the case, the bezel is also made in the same material and it is decorated with numerous sparkling diamonds as well as a gorgeous heart-shaped ruby at 12 o’clock. At the same time, the second hand is also ornamented with a heart-shaped ruby on the tip. So, when you read time, it is quite pleasant to appreciate the lovely second hand. Additionally, the minute and hour hands are perfectly treated with luminescent substance so that they can offer optimal legibility in the dark.

The mother-of-pearl dial is equipped with nine stunning diamonds to stand as the hour markers and other parts are adorned with Roman numerals. Meanwhile, the dial is well protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal on both sides. The moon-phase is presented by an indicator at 6 o’clock.

Blancpain Saint-Valentin 2011 Complete Calendar Lady’s Watch

2010 witnesses an amzing and stunning debut from Blancpain which is specially handbcrafted drawing inspirations from the original Fifty Fathoms watches in the 1950s. This is not surprising news to avid watch connoisseurs who are quite familiar with the original version since the two versions boast almost the same characteristics.

Almost as identical as the original models, the Tribute to Fifty Fathoms Watch features a special “re-issue” dial, which contributes to its uniqueness. Other outstanding features that it shares with the original version might be the atomic label on the watch case, as an indication of its free radiation abilities. For a long time it was believed by many that luminant is radiocative, and people began to dig into non harmful material as alternative since they realized it. As a result, the original Fifty Fathoms watch introduced in the 1950s proudly engraved right on the dial that it had “No Radiations”.

The flagship timepiece from Blancpain can be regarded as a 50-year celebration of the colletion’s success and change. During its long course of development, over 20 variations of the Fifty Fathoms watches were created basing on the original models which were manufactured for the combat divers of the French Navy. The lated launched Tribute to Fifty Fathoms watch pays special homage to its long and enriching history with a total of 500 pieces.

It houses a steel case which is exactly identical to the original watch model. Beating inside the timepiece is its signature calibre 1315 automatic movement, boasting high excellent accuracy as well as a power reserve ability of 5 days. The minimalist dial adds a strand of retro feel to the timepiece. As far as I am concerned, it is a uinque dial version of the Fifty Fathoms rather than a brand new model. And now the watch is obtainable at approximately $10, 000.
