For sale: an excellent condition Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscape Jour Date 70s, reference 5052 1110 63A.

The watch features the same famous manufacture caliber 1315 found in both the Fifty Fathoms and Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe watches with the addition of a day wheel. As such, it has a high beat (28,800) rate, a long five day power reserve, and silicon hairspring.
