Limited Edition of 250 Pieces
This exclusive series reinterprets a chapter of dive watch history. In 1959, six years after the release of the Fifty Fathoms by Blancpain, the first modern diver's watch, the now iconic MIL-SPEC was selected as the U.S. Navy dive watch after several rounds of testing alongside timepieces from other Swiss companies.
The U.S. Navy verdict after testing the Blancpain: "virtually complete satisfaction".
