Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe 43mm
5000-1110-B52A
How it wears
Wears true to its 43 mm case size
Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe 43mm measures 49.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 43 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.15 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 79% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 60% of the 68 Blancpain watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 55 mm (2.17 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 66 mm (2.60 in) it starts to look compact. Below 49.5 mm (1.95 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
At 13.4 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 69% of the watches with a listed thickness.

Fit reference
Fills most of the wrist for a bold, sporty fit; lug shape and end links matter.
