A new Sedna® gold Bathyscaphe
Blancpain’s Bathyscaphe diver’s watches were introduced in the late 1950s as models for both men and women. Imbued with the spirit of these historical models, the new Bathyscaphe offers a reinterpretation of these models featuring the integration of the latest technical innovations.
The contours are as sharply defined as those of their predecessors. The hands feature the traditional look of the vintage watches. Loyal to the original Bathyscaphe version, the luminescent dot on the bezel serves to ensure the permanent readability of diving times.
Testifying to the past while looking firmly to the future, the new models incorporate modern Blancpain calibres renowned for their robustness and reliability. Driven by a constant concern to improve these calibres, a nonmagnetic silicon balance-spring may be admire through a sapphire crystal case-back.
Another novel feature for Blancpain is the case in Sedna gold® with also a unidirectional Sedna® gold bezel with ceramic insert and Ceragold® hour-markers.
