A me risulta che il primo Fifty Fathoms sia nato nel '53 e il Submariner nel '52 ....
quindi ...o impari la storia o vai a parlare con altri ..... 
The 50 Fathoms was born in 1953 from the encounter in between Blancpain and two officers – Captain Robert “Bob” Maloubier and Lieutenant Claude Riffaud – who were entrusted from the French Ministry of Defence with producing an elite “Combat Divers” unit. The unit proved its worth by successfully facing up to your extreme conditions characteristic of underwater missions. The h2o resistance with the original unit, guaranteed to a depth of 50 fathoms (equivalent to 91.forty five metres) and outfittedthat has aexceptional one-way rotating bezel system, gave its name to this mechanical masterpiece that rapidly asserted itselfas the archetypal modern, dependable and sturdy diver’s observe.
sì? pensa che io ho questo articolo che dice il contrario, spero che ciò mi renda degno di continuare questo scambio di battute con te.
In 1953 Lip-
Blancpain's
Fifty Fathoms waterproof watch came on the market in
France. Various models were issued by Blancpain in small quantities to the military in several countries, including
US and
French Navy
combat diver teams. The fifty fathoms was worn by
Jacques Cousteau and his divers during the underwater film "Le monde du silence", which won the
Palme d'or at the
Cannes film festival in 1956, and in the US when TV star
Lloyd Bridges wore a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms dive watch in a photo that appeared on the cover of the February 1962 edition of
Skin Diver Magazine.
[3]The
Rolex Submariner was introduced at the
Basel Watch Fair in 1954 which coincided with the development of self-contained underwater breathing apparatus, known as
scuba. In 1961 Rolex began to include a
skindiver handbook with the Submariner, then available in two models, one water resistant to 200 meters/660 feet, the other, less expensive version, to 100 meters/330 feet. It was the choice of watch for the character of
007 in the first ten
James Bond films, causing the "Sub" to achieve an iconic status.
[4]comunque caro, ho visto che ti sei fossilizzato sul sub e hai VOLUTAMENTE glissato sul daytona...
allora, cosa mi dici, li buttiamo tutti a mare visto che ci son stati altri cronografi da polso prima?
