Guys does this model really exist`?

It did but not made anymore I believe and even if it was it wouldn't be as good as the V1 watches. The v2 of the black dial ones got the lume wrong, bezel numbers and the crystal "wrong" whereas they were all pretty much perfect on the V1

And if you were referring to it existing as a gen, yes, there is a gen blue fifty fathoms.

The lume on the v2 bezel is the wrong shade and not bright enough, the AR is a more purple-tint than blue, the crystal is cloudier although this can be fixed with custom AR (even without it isn't too bad it's just not as good as v1)

 

The bezel numbers, well neither are perfect. IMO the 5's on the v2 are better but the other numbers are a little closer on the v1.

 

V2 is still pretty much a super rep and the build quality is outstanding on both models. Both suffered a little with QC (wonky dial numbers and misaligned bezels mostly) but a trip to the watchsmith and they are truly a magnificent replica, both models.

 

There were variations in production from Blancpain and I've never met anyone who owns a Blancpain watch anyway let alone this model. Chances of being called out - very slim.

 

There are cheaper 21j etc versions out there, these are not noob reps and are garbage.

If your looking at AliExpress a word of warning on this one - they advertised auto but sent me quartz. Win some lose some I suppose!
