Blancpain is pushing the boundaries of diving instrumentation with the release of the X Fathoms. Launched at the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, this derivative of the Fifty Fathoms series is a powerhouse of engineering, designed to track both real-time and peak depth.
Built for durability and performance, the X Fathoms utilizes a satin-brushed titanium case and a cutting-edge injected rubber strap. Powering the timepiece is the in-house Caliber 9918B automatic movement, offering a massive 120-hour power reserve for those who demand reliability in the deep.
