5015 is not a brand new reference within the legendary Fifty Fathoms model family. But the matt finished titanium case and the black dial is new and they both highlight the series’ tool watch character nicely.

The new model comes in a lightweight titanium case with full matt finish measuring 45mm in diameter and 15.4mm in height. Equipped with scratch resistant sapphire crystals on both sides and the signature sapphire insert uni-directional diver’s bezel, the case is water resistant to 300 meters / 30 bars like a proper professional dive watch should be.

The dial of the new model is also arranged according to the classic Fifty Fathoms style. Accompanied with triangle and large Arabic numeral applique indexes and sword shape hands, the dial is designed in sector style with two different surface forms. All accents are Super LumiNOVA phosphor material applied for optimal legibility under darker conditions. Date display window is located between 4 and 5 o’clock while the center second hand’s tip is finished in bright red.
