Blancpain 5066F-1140-52B Moon Phase Watch
Overview
The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 5066F-1140-52B is a 45mm men's automatic watch with a stainless steel case and a blue analog dial protected by sapphire crystal. It uses a 66BF8 caliber self-winding mechanical movement that can be manually wound and hacked (the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out). It ticks 6 times per second which gives the second hand a smoother movement than quartz watches which tick once per second. The watch should run for up to 40 hours when fully wound and will self-wind when moved.
