[f]New Branpine 50 Fathom Automatic 38mm

Don’t call it a size reduction. A completely reworked design for a perfectly balanced proportion. Introducing two new Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique 38mm models for women. Yes, Blancpain explicitly informs that these new “FF” models are for women only. It’s not that much 2025, but in the brand’s defense, these watches pay tribute to women who are taking action as part of their Blancpine Ocean Commitment, through the Ocean Photographer of the Year Competition, particularly the Women’s 50 Fathom Awards. So that’s solved, but let’s take a look at the watch again. The 38mm case size is also perfect for men!

Now, the new Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique 38mm features a white NATO style strap and a shiny pink bezel, showing pink stripes of electricity and petals that match the pink mother-of-pearl dial with decorative effects (see 5007-12B44R-NAFA). I’m not against pink colours or mother-of-pearl, but the way Blanpine presents this combination probably won’t attract many men. The watch also has many similarities to the Blancpain x Swatch Scuba Fifty Fathoms pink ocean. Anyway, take a look at the bracelet version. 5007 12b44r. The fully brushed grade 23 Titanium 3 Link bracelet perfectly matches the brushed 38.2mm grade 23 Titanium case, so the watch undergoes a metamorphosis that will give you imagination.

Two new Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Automatique 38mm models

References basics. The 5007 12b44r is a traditionally sized brush grade 23 titanium case with a bracelet that matches a subtle grayish shade. With that foundation, it’s not difficult to imagine a more practical dive watch that is less glamorous. Maybe it has a matte black dial and anthracite one-way dive bezel?

The second newcomer is the red gold case version with a black bezel. ref. 5007 3644a is one of the black tropical elastic straps. 5007- 3644a-B52 has a Sailcloth strap and a reference. 5007-3644a-naba has a NATO strap made of black fabric. The refined 18ct red gold has a fierce shade. Blanpine calls it red gold instead of pink gold for reasons. That dial also works with “FF” with a brushed titanium case and matching bracelet.

Remember the limited edition of the black sinnU50 mother-of-pearl with a sparkling light blue dial? i will do it. And very clear. We found a contrast between dark hardened submarine steel and the shiny mother-of-pearl dial that is incredibly appealing.

Returning to reality and the future

The two new 38mm 50 Fathom watches feature a case with a water resistance rating of 300 meters. Inside the case there is an internal caliber 1153. This automatic 3Hz movement of 186 components has a 100-hour power reserve and a silicon balance spring. This is a standard FF movement and you can see it works through a see-through caseback.

Prices for the 18ct red gold version range from CHF 26,100 to CHF 29,000 to CHF 29,000, depending on the buckle, with red gold pin buckles and folding grips available. The titanium version of the white NATO style strap is 15,500 times higher, and the reference for the 3-link titanium bracelet is 18,200 chf.

What makes the 38mm model fantasy and hopes are a bit more straightforward, along with the functional history of the 50 Fathoms, and not a waste of time. In a press release with the two newcomers, Branpine wrote: You can start holding your breath now.
