I don't know much about either one, but the BP 50th anniversary edition really caught my eyes for some reasons. Anyway, how does the 50 Fathoms in general comparing to Rolex? It's prob more expensive, right? But how about actual performance and quality? History wise, I think they are about the same, right?

thx

Rolex is more like a daily wear watch/cloth..
50 Fathoms or other hign end diver watch is like Tuxedo.
You can only wear in the party. You won't want to wear tuxedo every day.
Unless you are 許純美!
(Rolex cal 3135 is very reliable plus the Oyster case, triple lock crown...a very perfect diver watch )
If you want a Rolex don't buy from US dealer.
Ask some one from HK to bring you one.
At least when you want to sell it you can get at least 90% of money back.

Actually French Navy used Tudor as their standard issued military diver watch. (It's kind of collectable in the market.)

BB, thx for your response. I thought French Navy used 50 fathoms, no?

I always thought a diver watch is supposed to be an everyday watch, so I thought 50 fathoms can be one too. Not that I have that kinda of money to get one anyway.. 眨眼

軍隊實際大量配發應該是Tudor
50 fathoms 可能是實驗品
實際狀況我也不知道
法軍Tudor的時針造型很特殊
通常品相良好的可以賣到1500美金以上

還有看照片不是很準
實際試戴才知道
勞力士潛水錶是古典設計
要戴上才能知道差距

好多次都是看到實物後
才發現差很多

至於機心比較
要看50 fathoms 用那個機心
日常配帶那些高檔機心不是很好用
(大多是中看不中用...防水防震不好)
勞力士3135實際驗證十幾年以上

你看到50 fathoms 的錶沒?
後殼設計如何
還有龍頭部份?

Blancpain 出名(比較有名)的應該是另一隻法國空軍錶
剛才又看了一下簡介
這隻50 fathoms 是限量錶
從投資眼光來看應該比日常配帶要好
話又反過來說
限量錶還買得到就是市場反應不好
不然老早賣光光市場上老早就炒翻天
那隻綠色SUB 16610我同事問Alpha Omega的小印度
小印度跟他開價5900美金(訂價4200)
夠離職啦
所以全球限量150隻的50 fathoms 還可以買得到
你最好想清楚

有可能是我記錯?
這裡是"正港"50 fathoms (真正的)

BB, I didn't see it in the store. The first time I saw it was on Next Magazine. They had a special on 50 fathoms. There are 2 different kinds of 50 fathoms. They have the regular line, and the anniversary line. I've never tried looking for either one. I just saw them online, and just want to see how it's being compared to Rolex since both of them have been around for many years.

In terms of the crown and the case back, I'm not sure how to judge, b/c I've never owned any military or diver watch. The pictures look pretty sturdy though. It has a metal case back, but I'm not sure it's as good as the Rolex one. That's why I hope someone can tell me more about it.

I'll try to find out more about the movement.

Sorry I thought you were looking for the Ltd one...
Just found the information:
http://www.blancpain.com/fifty_fathoms/the_collection/01_fifty_fathoms/steel/

I don't think I will like the "extra-slim" 1151 selfwinding movement
EXTRA SLIM....sounds not strong enough for a sporty watch!
Calibre: 1151
Thickness: 3.25 mm
Case material: Steel
Thickness: 13.00 mm
3.25 VS 13.00 is kind of weird?
Why they want to put a slim movement inside a sporty watch?
Any hand movement will cause BIG shock to the watch?


Ref. 2200-1130-71
Fifty Fathoms diver's watch, date and second-hand
Complication: Ultra-Slim
Self-winding: Yes
Case material: Steel
Thickness: 13.00 mm
Diameter: 40.50 mm
Water-resistance: 300 m
Between horns: 20.00 mm
Sapphire back: No
Dial: Black
Bracelet: Steel
Calibre: 1151
Thickness: 3.25 mm
Diameter: 26.20 mm
Power reserve in hours: 100
Jewels: 28
Components: 210
Limited edition: No
