Founded in 1735 by Jehan-Jacques Blancpain in the Swiss Jura, Blancpain is known as the world’s oldest watch Brand. Loyal to its tradition of innovation and confirmed by countless horological complications invented over the years, the Manufacture is constantly pushing the boundaries of watchmaking to take this art to places where it has never been before.
Innovative and state-of-the-art mechanisms within the pureness of refined cases embody the sophistication of Blancpain’s timepieces. Each of the Brand’s collection is faithful to the authentic values of the Manufacture and expresses its horological mastery.
Throughout the more than 65-year history of the Fifty Fathoms diving watch, Blancpain has woven close ties with the explorers, photographers, scientists, and environmentalists who treasure the world’s oceans. These affinities have inspired the Manufacture to support important activities and initiatives dedicated to these precious resources.
