I have had no issues with mine to date....
It was mfg in July of 2008 and hopefully quality control then was on their game 
Is there something wrong with my Fifty Fathoms bezel?
Bezel Hi Everyone, I suspect I have an issue and was wondering whether anyone else has experienced or seen this before. If you look around the bezel between the 3 and 7 markers from the dial there is a blemish which to me looks like delamination of the be...
Yes.
Whether it's delamination (or even air bubbles) I'm not sure, but definitely the enamel/paint Blancpain uses underneath the sapphire insert is coming off. Send it off for a replacement. Hopefully, it's still under warranty?
This is not okay...
... I have seen minor signs like that with a few FF Dark Knight models, even some new ones, but not to that extent. Clearly not the type of aging you want to see. Whether it’s under warranty or not, Blancpain should replace this as a courtesy. Cheers Henr...
Seems to be defective
Mine was not like this. I did sell the watch for other reasons however.

Had 2 Fifty Fathoms. First one, bezel came completely off in the swimming pool. Not good for a dive watch. Sent. Ack to factory for repair. Got it back and happened again. They gave me a new one. Second Fifty Fathoms stopped running. Sent back for factory...
Thats very bad...
...sometimes people write crazy things about the Blancpain quality, you are not the first one with problems. I hope that will not happen with my FF. But when they repair it and it happens again then i would question the service....That can not be in that ...

I've sent the watch to BP via my AD today....let's see how long and how much this turns out to be. [nt]
Just for reference. AD charged me $180 for shipping to and from and $150 for BP to evaluate the watch. The $150 will be refunded against the repair if I choose to go forward after the quote.
My estimate has come in.....
My AD just sent me their estimate. Complete service $785 USD Bezel replacement $1,375 USD Time frame for completion is 14-16 weeks after approval AND PAYMENT. Is that normal? I pay before they even start the service??
What I don’t find normal is paying in advance
Prices given for maintenance and bezel replacement are what they are..to
Yes almost the same thing just happened to mine...
More or less I have encountered the same things, the sapphire glass has detached from the enamel, but there is no play, i cannot feel any woble. On mine, it seems that also water has found its way in there and the lume is also affected in those areas. Min...
New Bezel...
Blancpain did a swift turnaround and after a month or so got the watch back with a new bezel, it rotates more firmly than the one that came with the watch, and the lume is as it should. Now, let's see if this is going to hold up to the brand name. ...
