Blancpain re-introduced the legendary Blancpain Fifty Fathoms in 2007. Among the many available models are also several versions featuring gold cases (pictured here, Ref. 5015-3630-52 in rose gold). The big, 45-mm-diameter watch is water resistant to 300 meters and powered by Caliber 1315. And if that’s too much bling for you, there is also a brushed case available (Ref. 5015A-3630-63B).

Graham has recently extended its Prodive range with a “Black and Gold” version, limited to 250 pieces (Ref. 2CDAZ.B04A). The 600-meter water-resistant case measures 45 mm and is coated with black DLC. The hands, crown and chronograph trigger are made of rose gold and the movement, Caliber G1750, is based on a Valjoux 7750. At around $18,000, it is most likely the least expensive choice of all the watches shown here.
