Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 5100B-1110-B52A

This reference is the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Barakuda, a 500-piece limited edition released in 2019. Its significance lies in its faithful tribute to a cult-classic civilian diver’s watch from the late 1960s. It is distinguished by its highly wearable 38mm stainless steel case and its unique dial, which features large rectangular hour markers with red accents and “old radium” colored Super-LumiNova®, just like the historic model. The watch is powered by the Caliber 1151, an automatic movement with a 100-hour power reserve. The Barakuda is highly sought after for its direct historical lineage, distinctive aesthetic, and limited availability, representing a key heritage piece in the modern collection. This reference is delivered on a tropic-style rubber strap.
