From Blancpain’s Instagram account…
A new FF line is making its way to the surface…
Looks awesome and Blancpain is sure to score a slam dunk on these…
Congratulations to Miss Capozzola for her recognition.
Eager to learn more, and see what else will be released.
Great weekend to all,
Alex

I'm amazed that they still had to cram in the date (window). Just leave it out. Especially with so many numerals already on the dial.
Bravo, I am with you. Let's create the Zapata Fan Club " Death to the date on a Fifty Fathoms ". :)))))
The lifebuoy bazel
Always look good.
It remembers me about the bakelite Rolex bazel’s, albeit that look different.
Both worth to collect and to enjoy.

That is honest
Taste can differ.
Such a nice watch.
Better than any cold watch.
But ok, i am a typical guy that loves everything that have it’s roots from Villeret.
A Swatch group fan either.
A barok guy. History lover.
A Fifty Fathoms lover.

It can be an overkill, but as a women’s watch, I think it works. Not an overly technical look, casual enough for daily wear
I think the dial has too many numerals, which is not really necessary for a diver IMO
Anyway i hope they start to make medium sized fifty fathom (37-40 mm) which is NOT a limited edition.
The bathyscaphe 38 mm was the only regular production in that size range, if i am not mistaken

That’s the silver lining for me as well… Makes me wonder if a revamp of the entire collection could happen starting from this women’s version… 42mm with the curves of the 5015 case would be cherry!
Love the popping blue color. But Franck Muller numerals on a Fifty Fathoms, not my cup of tea. Leave the date, just have the straight 12-3-6-9 numerals in a 40-42 mm case (end whining)
Good eye! I thought more like the Rendezvous Collection from JLC, but Frank Muller is spot on, as well.
Magical BP
More than only one model.
I put one specific BP on my wishlist.
A 41,5 FF. The desert diver.
After viewing the watch on the BP website.
Good news for the readers,
the dial is without the flamboyant numerals.

Exactly, Weems…
I think it is good news in the end because it shows Blancpain reaching for a wider audience (women with this specific watch), but alongside that premise, a 41-42mm non limited could not be too far away….
Having said that, as the proud owner of a 5015, one cannot but be happy and wish success to Blancpain on this release.
Cheers,
Alex

Good luck BP
Great reply Alex.
I said i have the ff desert on the eye.
The watch is almost ok.
The rough polishing and sharp edges is i think part of the watch.
Should divers prefer that kind of sharpness?
Be honest i not wore a wetsuit, but i can imagine a dive watch must be smooth.
I dived, but i a comfort pool.
Even my own Omega Seamaster is smooth enough to meet my requirement.
My knowledge of the ff is poor.

A feminine Fifty Fathoms…
… looks to me like an iteration of the 40mm FF with a dial that might be blue colorised Mother of Pearl?
Eager to learn more about what seems to be a new standard collection model.
