This
Blancpain X Swatch watch honors Blancpain’s Fifty Fathoms, the first true
diver’s watch. Its blue case and crown are made of Bioceramic material. The
word “Swatch” is inscribed on the outer left side of the case. The metal
dial is printed in several layers of color for a gradient effect. The hour
indexes, hour, and minute hands, as well as the scale on the bezel, are
enriched with Grade A Super-LumiNova® for outstanding legibility in the
dark. The one-direction rotating ocean blue-colored Bioceramic bezel, and
biosourced glass are treated with an anti-scratch coating. The SISTEM51
mechanical movement is visible thanks to a transparent sapphire glass and
features an illustration of the Atlantic Ocean and the Glaucus Atlanticus nudibranch in digital
print. Five inspirational 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 of recycled fishing
nets that were removed from the sea. The pin buckle and loops are made of
Bioceramic material.
