Product Description

Crafted in 2019, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 'Nageurs de Combat' stands as a tribute to the storied legacy of the French Combat Swimmers unit. This exclusive timepiece, limited to a production run of 2019 pieces, honors the pioneering spirit of the unit that first tested the iconic 1953 Fifty Fathoms dive watch. In a unique collaboration, the French army granted Blancpain the privilege to intricately engrave the Combat Diver Qualification Badge on the caseback. This emblem, featuring a central anchor flanked by winged seahorses, pays homage to both sailors and parachutists, symbolizing the dual realms of the sea and the sky. The dial discreetly showcases the number 7, a significant symbol within the commando frogmen community. Representing the maximum depth achievable by these elite divers using pure oxygen, the number 7 holds a profound meaning, as oxygen turns toxic at 1.7 bar pressure. Imbued with history and expertise, this timepiece seamlessly marries tradition with innovation, embodying the spirit of courage and exploration that defines the world of professional diving.
