Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 5066F-1140-52B

The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Chronographe Flyback Quantième Complet, reference 5066F-1140-52B, is a highly complicated version of the iconic dive watch, introduced in 2010. This model combines the sporty, robust features of the Fifty Fathoms collection with the sophistication of a flyback chronograph and a complete calendar with moon phase. It was one of the first modern Fifty Fathoms models to feature a striking blue “Flinqué” dial. The watch features Blancpain’s patented under-lug correctors for adjusting the calendar functions, which allows for a clean case profile without the need for correction tools. The caliber 66BF8 is an automatic movement with a 40-hour power reserve. This reference is significant for successfully merging the utilitarian roots of the Fifty Fathoms with high horology, creating a versatile luxury sports watch.
