Owner Review: Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe

Think of the first dive watch designed expressly for use by the military. A design so forward in thought, that even today, much of the criteria that officially defines the dive watch (ISO 6425 for those playing the home game), could be found on this very early timepiece.
