500 FATHOMS BENEATH THE SEA

On the eve of the Baselworld 2009 watch show, Blancpain presents the "big sister" of its now famous Fifty Fathoms watch: the brand-new 500 Fathoms. More high-performance and high-tech than ever, the brand's latest diver's watch displays an uncompromisingly sporting design. Water-resistant to 1000 metres, it is equipped with a helium decompression valve that is vital when diving in a closed environment. The ultra-virile 500 Fathoms is fitted with a 48 mm-diameter titanium case - an unusual size for Blancpain.
