BLANCPAIN HAS TAKEN ITS LEGENDARY DIVER’S WATCH and turned up the volume. The new Fifty Fathoms Tech 45 mm joins the permanent collection, fusing serious diving pedigree with a fresh, lifestyle-driven edge.

Built from Grade 23 brushed titanium, the Tech is every bit the professional instrument: a 300-metre depth rating, a helium escape valve and a black dial that absorbs up to 97% of light for legibility in even the murkiest conditions.

Its oversized unidirectional ceramic bezel and 120-hour power reserve make it just as comfortable on a deep-sea mission as it is on dry land.

What’s new? A tool-free interchangeable strap system that makes switching between straps fast and fuss-free – ideal for divers adjusting for wetsuits or urban wearers who want to change their look on the go.

For 2025, Blancpain introduces not just classic black rubber, but bold white and vivid orange options that echo the watch’s orange seconds hand and dial detailing.

Inside, the in-house Calibre 1315A continues to impress collectors with its precision, reliability and five-day power reserve. The sapphire case back puts the movement on full display, highlighting Blancpain’s commitment to high watchmaking, even in its most robust designs.

This isn’t just a watch for divers; it’s a statement for anyone looking for high-performance watchmaking with personality. Whether over a wetsuit, at the office or on a weekend city break, the Fifty Fathoms Tech proves a true all-terrain companion – a serious tool with a lifestyle twist.

The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Tech 45 mm is available now from Blancpain boutiques, priced at $34,600 locally.
