A no date 43mm Bathyscaphe...
... was introduced today by Blancpain: the Bathyscaphe Mokarran Limited Edition, 50 pieces exclusively for the New York and Las Vegas Boutiques.
The watch features a black ceramic case, a green sunburst dial, a green ceramic bezel and it is powered by cal 1318, the no date version of cal 1315.
It is not an official Ocean Commitment watch, but it is linked to a Blancpain Ocean Commitment project, so 1000$ of each watch are donated to the project with the Mokarran Protection Society to measure and identify great hammerhead sharks in French Polynesia. A lot more information can be found at WatchTime.
Cheers
Henrik

Nice looking...a bit big for me but size-appropriate for a dive watch. [nt]

Thanks for sharing dear Henrik - I think I prefer the metal Nato hardware on the 1st Bathyscaphes in this series. The watch looks great with no date window - I wonder if I could live with
colour - maybe I like it - I think I will give it some time to sink in 
Best Will.

I'm digging all the green dials!
This isn't the one for me, but if the brand's continue bringing out green dials, it will just be a matter of time before I take the plunge.
Thanks for posting.

That looks amazing. I wish it had a date, just a small one at 5! [nt]

Not sure whether the green dial fits the (rather austere) personality of the watch.
But as usual would need to be seen for a fair judgement.
Full deposit down, i'll take a look at it at the boutique and see if I want to keep it. [nt]

I half-like it
Like the dial and bezel colours. But the price is too steep for the tech involved, and there is no bracelet in the package.
For the same amount, one can get more tech from other brands, and a much needed bracelet.
But luxury purchases are illogical. I kinda like the look of it, but just cannot get over the price of this which is too much for what is intrinsic.
And $1000 goes to the foundation. To me it is not even 7% of the selling price, which is not sincerity especially since Hayek is a diver. In charity auctions we go by thousands, millions and not by mickey mouse $1k by a Hayek. Gosh!
Hmm... I want to see some of your photos of this watch!
The "press" photos look lifeless to me. Your photographs look so much better!
This is the one! 🙏
Finally without this „...“ 04:30 date I could never get used to!! 🥰

I love the symmetry of the dial without the date window. I definitely have to try this on 😉 [nt]
