Commentaire : Dטs son lancement en 1953, la Fifty Fathoms s'impose comme la montre de plongיe la plus fiable du marchי. Si א l'origine il s'agit d'une montre militaire dיveloppיe pour la Marine franחaise, le modטle est rapidement dיclinי en version civile afin d'ךtre accessible aux plongeurs non-professionnels. . Toutes les sociיtיs spיcialisיes dans la vente d'יquipements de plongיe souhaitent pouvoir proposer cette montre rיvolutionnaire א leurs clients. Or Blancpain ne travaillant qu'avec deux distributeurs officiels : la Spirotechnique et Lip. La Spirotechnique, connue commercialement sous le nom d'Aqua Lung, est le fournisseur officiel des יquipements de plongיe de la Marine nationale. Ces partenariats commerciaux expliquent la prיsence sur le marchי d'exemplaires portant la double signature "Blancpain / Aqua Lung" ou "Blancpain / Lip". Si Aqua Lung et Lip sont les deux revendeurs agrייs de Blancpain les plus cיlטbres, le revendeur italien Technisub, spיcialisי dans la fabrication d'יquipement de plongיe et basי א Gךnes, reste l'un des moins connus. Fondיe en 1962 par Luigi Ferraro, ancien plongeur de combat du cיlטbre groupe Gamma de la Marine italienne, Technisub entretient des relations commerciales fortes avec la Spirotechnique. C'est d'ailleurs grגce א ce partenaire privilיgiי que la firme italienne va obtenir de Blancpain la livraison d'une petite sיrie de montres Fifty Fathoms. Ces exemplaires, reconnaissables grגce א leur cadran "Blancpain / Technisub", sont aujourd'hui les doubles signatures les plus rares sur le marchי. . Cette montre, une version civile יquipיe d'un cadran noir extrךmement dיsirable "No Radiations" א 6h, est particuliטrement difficile א trouver sur le marchי aujourd'hui. L'יtat du cadran et de la lunette en bakיlite est exceptionnel compte tenu de l'usage pour lequel cette montre fut produite. . ----. Since its launch in 1953, the Fifty Fathoms has established itself as the most reliable diving watch on the market. Although it was originally a military watch developed for the French Navy, the model was quickly adapted to a civilian version in order to be accessible to non-professional divers. . All companies specialising in the sale of diving equipment wanted to be able to offer this revolutionary watch to their customers. However, Blancpain only worked with two official distributors: Spirotechnique and Lip. Spirotechnique, known commercially as Aqua Lung, is the official supplier of diving equipment to the French Navy. These commercial partnerships explain the presence on the market of watches bearing the double signature "Blancpain / Aqua Lung" or "Blancpain / Lip". Apart from these two authorised dealers, Blancpain did not work with any other retailer, except for an Italian dealer specialising in the manufacture of diving equipment and based in Genoa: Technisub. . Founded in 1962 by Luigi Ferraro, a former combat diver with the Italian Navy's famous Gamma group, Technisub has a strong commercial relationship with Spirotechnica. It was thanks to this privileged partner that the Italian firm obtained from Blancpain the delivery of a small series of Fifty Fathoms watches. These watches, recognisable by their "Blancpain / Technisub" dial, are today the rarest double signatures on the market. . This watch, a civilian version with a highly desirable black "No Radiations" dial at 6 o'clock, is particularly difficult to find on the market today. The condition of the bakelite dial and bezel is exceptional considering the purpose for which this watch was produced.
