Offering my Blancpain Bathyscaphe 43mm in stainless steel with gray dial—the ultimate modern Fifty Fathoms! This is an early production piece (serial under 50, one of the very first sold), in outstanding overall condition. Selling because I’ve bought a few new watches and need to downsize! I am a private collector and not making any money on this sale.
