I thought the whole point of this blue release was that is wasn’t to be limited lol.

Limited to how many they sell I guess.

Navy blue, very Halloween ………………………………………………..

Where is that image from? I'm not seeing it on Spinnaker's site and there is no mention of only 670 watches for the Blue.

It's an open pre-order for 50 hours. Once pre-order closes, no more can be ordered. So it's limited in that way, but they aren't artificially setting a limit. They are letting the market decide during the order window the size of the production run.

This is one of their ad’s on instagram

Looks like they fixed it.

Probably used the template from the original launch, forgetting to remove the part about it being limited.

I ordered one as well. Handsome and whimsical piece. Should be a real conversation starter. I love how each of the phantoms appears to be individually applied to the dial. Gives a rich three dimensional quality to the dial.

I wonder if the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms will see an upsurge in interest and sales? After the dramatic Swatch x Blancpain release and now this, might Blancpain enter the consciousness of more buyers who might otherwise go the Rolex Submariner route? Interesting to watch. Thoughts?

I wanted this watch in black, but it just does not work for me in blue.

Do the ghosts glow in the dark as well?

Juuust preordered, I cannot wait for it😁

I've preordered( and posted on it). Like the blue luckily as I was too late for the black or grey

Hallowe'en is over, and so is this watch now. A blue one makes no sense anyway because it's only the black which makes it look good, because it's like night when ghosties come out, and night is dark and black...

Maybe they are trying to emulate the AliExpress "water ghost" translations for Submariners. I expect there'll be an "Oxblood red" version too if you give them time. I'm so done with seeing this watch. You can get a "normal" Fleuss for half the price all day every day, so it's a lot of money for an amusing dial.

And amusing rotor!

They admitted to completely borking the release and coupons etc and decided to be nice. I got no prob with that as I only learned of the Fifty Phantoms a day after it sold out

Me too. Saw at and thought it's a must have

Whats next, Omega Aqua terror, with monsters on the dial and a t rex rotor…… only Joshing, I actually came close to ordering the black , think its a bit of fun and the fathoms/phantoms word play is just the kind of silly dad joke I love.
