A magnificent watch. The size is a close to perfection as you can get.
It’s a really good looking dial also. It looks more retro than the full size Fifty Fathoms with the metal surrounds for the hour markers

This is amazing, what a magnificent watch, indeed! This one is even more special for obvious reasons. Dive watches are incredibly fascinating. Congrats, enjoy in good health.

If they don’t make 40-42mm FF as their standard model line, I don’t know how much longer this brand will live on… Btw, I have a black ceramic Bathyscaphe and I actually like this brand.

If the new 42 mm release is coming, let's hope Blancpain will not disappoint us and will fit the appraised 1315 caliber in the regular edition watch. Looking at the act 3, which houses the lower esteemed 1154 caliber, I am worried that my expectations might not be met.
