It would be easy to lose track of time, but our underwater regimen includes regularly glancing at our pressure gauge, which shows how much pressurized air remains in our tanks, and at our watch, where we can check the dive time. After 40 minutes, the pressure gauge reminded us to begin our ascent to the surface. A problem cropped up during our first dive: both watches’ straps were too short to fit comfortably over the sleeves of our 7-mm-thick diving suits.

  • CLOSE-UP Blancpain X Fathoms
    92 WatchTime February 2012 Blancpain took dive-watch techno- logy to a new level in 1953 with the Fifty Fathoms. Now it intends to do so again with its new “extreme” concept watch, the X Fathoms. BY MARK BERNARDO GENERATION CLOSE-UP Blancpain X Fathoms here are watch executives who do most of their business behind the scenes in boardrooms and office suites. Then there is Blanc- pain chairman and CEO Marc Hayek, who has, over the course of his career inside and outside the watch business, become a poster boy for mixing business with pleasure. He is a gourmand who opened a restaurant, a wine lover who distributed wines, a cigar enthusiast who ran a cigar lounge. When Blancpain, the Swiss watch firm he took over in 2002, partnered with Lam- borghini to create a limited-edition, racing-inspired timepiece, Hayek didn’t just issue press releases and run ads; he got behind the wheel of a Lambo Gallardo racing machine with the watch strapped to his wrist, winning the GT Masters Amateur Cham- pionship last fall. When it comes to promoting his products, he’s not known for doing things small. The latest evidence came in October, when a group of jour- nalists gathered in front of the Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo at the Dubai Mall to witness the introduction of Blancpain’s new concept watch, an “extreme” divers’ model called the X Fathoms. Hayek, an avid deep-sea diver as well as motorsports enthusiast, plunged into the water and settled next to a sub- merged watchmaker’s workbench, surrounded by sharks, stingrays and other undersea fauna, after which Italian free diver Gianluca Genoni joined him in the aquarium, paddling down to the workbench to present him with the X Fathoms prototype.

    NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR SALE The following pages are a preview for a forthcoming book and are for review purposes. They contain images which will not be included in the final manuscript but are being used as indications of subject matter. It is therefore declared that presentation of all herein constitutes “fair use” of any copyrighted material as provided for in section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Law. © Dr. Peter McClean Millar – January 2008 AUTHORS NOTE This book started out life as a chapter for an update to the book I wrote on the history of the Doxa dive watch. As I started to research it and compile the information, it became apparent that a single chapter would not do justice to the wealth of information that was being given to me. Because you are now holding a separate book rather than an update to the Doxa book, the focus of the information contained herein has changed. Certainly it includes many photos of Doxa watches, both vintage and modern, but primarily it is about the people who made the development of diving and dive watches possible. Once again I owe tremendous gratitude to Rick Marei and Doxa watches for giving me a canvas on which to develop my creativity and just like my last book, Greg Bottle took words and photos and made them come alive with his artistry. Doxa wanted to put something back into the diving world and help keep alive the memories and achievements of the pioneers of the sport which made them famous. This book is a small part of that plan.
