Discovery of the 45 mm fifty Fathoms Tech
A muscular and refined aesthetic
The grade 23 brushed titanium housing 45 millimeters in diameter immediately claims the technical and resistant nature of the Fifty Fathoms Tech 45mm.
This highly efficient, light and biocompatible material is ideal for intensive use, especially in the marine environment.
Its 14.10mm thickness remains contained in view of its extreme capacities, in particular a watertightness guaranteed up to 300 meters deep (30 bar), provided among other things by the presence of a helium valve and a screwed winding crown.
The unidirectional rotating telescope, with 120 notches, was specially designed to offer an excellent grip, even with thick diving gloves.
The absolute black dial absorbs up to 97 % of the light, maximizing the readability in low light conditions.
The indexes in relief luminescent blocks, combined with needles covered with super-luminova, offer exceptional readability under water.
The Orange second needle – it is blue on the Fifty Fathoms Tech Boc IV and Black on the Fifty Fathoms Tech Gombessa – as well as the inscription Tech On the dial echoes one of the new bracelets offered, in a bright orange tone.
This assumed chromatic choice brings a touch of modernity and dynamism to the room.
The engine of this watch is none other than the whitepain caliber 1315A.
This automatic winding manufacturer movement, oscillating at 4Hz (28,800 alternations per hour), is recognized for its reliability, precision and robustness.
With a very impressive 120 -hour walking reserve (5 days) – I remind you that the market average is 42 hours and that the trend grows around 72 hours, it allows professionals of the sea and enthusiasts to rest on prolonged autonomy.
Visible through a sapphire glass background, the caliber also reveals neat finishes which attest to the commitment of Blanchepain towards the Haute Horlogerie, each component, including those hidden by others, being finished by hand.
