Blancpain has already presented us with a 500 Fathoms watch several months ago but this time, they are once again presenting this model in a different version. They are calling this new version as the Blancpain Sport Collection 500 Fathoms.This Blancpain Sport Collection 500 Fathoms is a sporty yet elegant looking timepiece that is especially made to endure any harsh conditions from any environment. This watch is made of titanium metal which makes it very strong and at the same time lightweight. This watch also includes a black bezel with luminescent coated 60 minute scale on it. The sporty look of this watch is matched with a black canvas strap making it comfortable to wear. This watch also includes a black dial with bold luminescent coated hour markers and hands which make it legible even under water. This timepiece is also suitable for diving especially with is 1000 meters water resistance. This watch also includes a date indicator found on the small window at 3 o'clock.This new Blancpain Sport Collection 500 Fathoms is indeed a great sports watch for 2009. Keep in touch for its official release date and pricing.

Thankfully we are no where near Valentine’s day – yet. The oft-hyped holiday strikes fear into the hearts of many men poised with the daunting task of offering their mate not only the perfect gift, but the perfect day. Swiss Blancpain gives men another reason to worry with the 2011 version of their “Saint Valentin” watch for Valentine’s day. The 2011 watch is very classic in style, and even the iconic Blancpain features are subdued. The watch is a triple calendar style with moon phase. Meaning it has an annual calendar complication, the time with a subsidiary seconds dial, and a smiling moon phase indicator.The watch is mostly white in tone, with a 35mm wide steel case, bezel lined with 49 diamonds, more diamonds on the mother-of-pearl dial, and two hearts. No Valentine’s day watch can resist the inclusion of red hearts! The first is used as the hand on the date indicator dial on the watch face, and other other is a bit higher-end on the luxury scale being a heart-shaped ruby located on the bezel at the 12 o’clock position.Blancpain includes their in-house made Calibre 6763 automatic movement that is visible through the sapphire caseback window. A watch like this feels like a men’s model turned femme – which inherently it is. The watch doesn’t exclude girliness, but it rather a stately gift for a mature and sophisticated woman (that has a penchant for fine mechanical watches). Blancpain will make only 99 pieces of this 2011 Saint Valentin watch and it should be available early next year. Interestingly enough, it comes in a box that is little locked treasure chest. There is an accompanying white gold heart (wearing a corset) that is opened to reveal the key. Personally I would want a written letter from her saying that whatever is in the box will satisfy her Valentine’s day expectations.
