Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 5015-1130-71S Description
The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique, reference 5015-1130-71S, is the archetypal version of the modern Fifty Fathoms launched in 2007. Its significance lies in being the direct descendant of the original 1953 model, re-imagined for contemporary tastes but retaining the core DNA of a professional diving instrument. This reference is distinguished by its fully polished stainless steel case paired with a meticulously engineered matching steel bracelet, giving it a substantial and luxurious feel on the wrist. Historically, it marked Blancpain’s confident return to the luxury sports watch arena, setting a new benchmark with its combination of high-end finishing, robust construction, and a high-performance movement. The watch features the iconic black dial with large, luminous markers and hands for maximum legibility, and the signature unidirectional sapphire crystal bezel, renowned for its durability and glossy depth. At the heart of the 5015-1130-71S is the in-house Caliber 1315, a self-winding movement featuring a remarkable 120-hour (5-day) power reserve thanks to its triple-barrel architecture. A silicon balance spring provides crucial anti-magnetic properties. This reference remains a cornerstone of the collection, representing the purest modern expression of the world’s first true diver’s watch.
