Any news on Act 2?

[GS719691]

A previous poster in this thread said they heard Act 2 may be in February. I myself haven’t heard or read anything.

Might be dropping Act 1 soon...On Jan 19th I put the full deposit and today I got my preorder certificate. I saw others got their certificate earlier, just thought I would share an update.

That's cool that you could get one 9 days after the release date. Did you get it from the Boutique? By deposit you mean you paid in full? I ordered mine within 15 minutes of release but still haven't received the "certificate"

Act 2 launch is Feb 13th, pricing will be available 16th. I got invited to the launch, but unfortunately couldn’t make it. I really hope it’s something good as I would love to make BP the next addition.

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to the release of the 2nd act. for a no date FF

[GB-man]

So they are going to launch it online tomorrow but not tell us the price for 3 more days?!

That’s a helium escape valve on the IG teaser.. so maybe something more like a compact 500 Fathoms that’s more heritage like in looks?

Either way if it has a HE valve, it’s gonna be likely too big for my wrist

[bobernet]

If it’s a more manageable sized 500F, I will absolutely be buying one. The 500F is an amazing piece of mechanical dive watch innovation.

Was anything announced today?

IG teaser clip

Ok so they have a link in their IG story that leads to a landing page on their website and I then used every setting on my iPhone to lighten the image (exposure etc)

Looks like a new technical dive watch

[Aferrariguy]

If they found a way to put a mechanical depth gauge (like from the x fathoms) on a more regular sized FF it would be insane

Looks like a professional instrument for serious divers. Rumors of FF500 seem to be true

Nice sleuthing! It’s probably gonna be pricier as well compared to Act 1..

I’m hoping that Act 3 is more of a “heritage” release and a closer homage to the OG fifty fathoms. Now I think that would really cause some massive waves

I was invited, participated in the event, saw the watch, put it on my wrist, and took some photos of the new Fifty Fathoms Tech.

Dont have high hope for BP. They dont seem to hear or understand or care about what we want.

[CharlesN]

I was invited to one of the new watch launch locations.

It was a very pleasant evening, Thank you Blancpain.

I was lucky to be able to see, touch and even wear the new model.

It looks good on my wrist, It looked good on other peoples wrists also.

It certainly has some interesting features.

Blancpain, without doubt, have listened to some people and produced an innovative watch which shows how they have understood the needs of some divers.

Did you have an opportunity to see or try Act 1?

Blancpain, Correctly in my opinion, have asked those present at the launch to refrain from posting pictures or giving out too much detail on the new release.

They would like to give everybody the same great suprise at the same time via their website and social media channels.

I will, of course, abide by Blancpains request.

Lucky for you to see it first Charles

Well, if you and others have seen it that's not fair to everybody else. In fact, you make it more fair when you share.

But this has nothing to do with the new Act.

[GB-man]

Alrighty then
