GREAT Opening Day Pickup, Swatch x Blancpain SCUBA FIFTY FATHOMS Watch Unboxing and Review!

Opening day worldwide and I managed to get a hold of the Blancpain x Swatch Bioceramic Scuba Fifty Fathoms watch, easily one of the more anticipated watch releases of 2021. I picked mine up at the Swatch store on 5th avenue in New York City. The watch is similar in dimensions to the MoonSwatch in diameter and lug to lug with both at around 42mm and 48mm respectively. However the dive watch has is much thicker at about 14.4mm and that is exacerbated by the NATO strap. The watch is an automatic watch featuring the decorated Sistem 51 movement, each one done for a specific ocean, Arctic, Antarctic, Pacific, Atlantic and Indian. The watch comes in a carrying case in nylon similar in material to a Doxa dive watch which is an upgrade over a MoonSwatch which has none. The dial of the India Ocean model also has a green fume dial with a date window between the 4 and 5 o'clock dials. The price of this watch is $400 in USD which is a significant increase of $130 over a MoonSwatch but the automatic movement with the decoration, the water resistance of 91m or Fifty Fathoms or 300m, the carry case and the more prestigious name of Blancpain justify that price hike.
