Swatch x Blancpain Atlantic Ocean Automatic Watch Bioceramic Scuba Fifty Fathoms Collection

This model by Blancpain in collaboration with Swatch pays tribute to the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, the first true diving watch. The case and crown are made of Bioceramic in a deep blue shade. The word “Swatch” is clearly visible on the left outer side of the case. The metal dial is printed in several layers of colour that create a soft gradient. The hour indices, hour and minute hands and the bezel scale are treated with premium Grade A Super-LumiNova®, ensuring excellent legibility in the dark. The unidirectional rotating bezel in ocean-blue Bioceramic and the bio-sourced crystal have a protective coating against scratches.

The mechanical SISTEM51 movement is visible through the transparent sapphire crystal and shows illustrations of the Atlantic Ocean as well as a digital print of the sea slug Glaucus Atlanticus. Five inspiring inscriptions can be found on the back of the watch: “PASSION FOR DIVING – LICENCE TO EXPLORE – OCEAN BREATH – PROTECT WHAT YOU LOVE and IMMERSE YOURSELF”.

The NATO strap is made from recycled fishing nets removed from the sea, while the pin buckle and loops are made of Bioceramic.
