My wrist is 17 cm big, and yes, due to the short curved lugs, it is big but it can be worn on my wrist.

Blancpain X Fathoms: The epitome of the Fifty Fathoms.

Which is not Fifty Fathoms anymore, as it is 300 meters water resistant. But we have, with the X Fathoms, the most technical diving watch, for sure. You immediately noticed that we have a mechanical depth gauge, here, and that it is not a first, as mechan...  

Superb lume shot!

Did you ever have a chance to try it in your own wrist, Henrik?

Did it work on your wrist?

And: how large is your wrist? Perhaps you remember that I am looking forward to look at some FF at my AD in order to - hopefully - pull the trigger. I’m especially fascinated by these two RG iterations: And this X Fathoms, which haunts me for years, could...  

Since we have the same wrist size.

Do you also have a wrist shot from this special “meeting” with the X? 🙏

Fantastic!

Aaaaaah! You were very fast with your post, mon ami! 😊

And very interesting details about watch history, too. I also think, that due its lug construction combined with the strap the „X Epithome“ is definitely wearable (we seem to have the same wrist size). Not in the office of course. But on summer holidays, ... 

Great post! 👍🏻

Best technical mechanical dive watch ever made. An engineering marvel that happens to look very good. I have seen it in the boutique and I have always loved that watch. Problem is I would have no where to wear it and I also don’t dive deeper than my pool.... 

For me, a diver's watch

is also a wonderful daily wearer, and I have the impression that it is generally more robust.

Same for me.

Your posts are pure evil...

Taking a second look at this ultimate diving watch. Considered the Panerai but it has...some electronic components. I understand this model has 100% fully functioning mechanical components - wonder if the dive master would allow this to be used over elect... 

On your list?
