I love BP, the standard Fifty Fathoms is my dream watch if my wrists were bigger. In this case, I prefer the Omega.

They made a 40 mm version, back in 2003, for an anniversary edition. They are available from time to time for sale online. https://blancpainblog.com/timepieces...niversary/amp/

Can’t say I’m a fan of the dial on the BP. Omega otherwise.

Omega. That BP dial is really not appealing at all. I really dislike the look of the entire Bathyscaphe line.

I prefer the Omega, just not the mesh looking strap.

Love Omega but the No Time to Die is everything Omega isn’t.

BP

Neither. The BP is cluttered, and the Omega has the dreaded Helium-escape valve (like I need one).

I am a huge fan of BP, but with these two options, I am going to vote on the Omega.

BP and I have owned the Omega before. Moved it along as it was not getting significant wrist time and I was into it for retail. Figure I might circle back around in a year or so when the prices are in the mid 6k's.

You get more of a watch with the BP but Omega simply looks better IMHO.
