Brand vibe
The French know diving watches and Jacques Bianch, a Marseille dive-watch house with an unusually literal claim to throne, has a pretty cool story. The original Bianchi workshop opened in 1982, serviced Rolex and Breitling, and provided divers to French Navy. It was reluanched in 2021 by Fabrice Pougez (of MATWatches, also in the Atlas) and Simo Tber via Kickstarter (which I guess is also "Kickstarter" in French) and they build one silhouette repeatedly rather than sprawling it out. I'm quite partial to the Aquastrike myself.

Not enough information for a duty figure
The fields above are reported facts. None of them establishes customs origin: that depends on the watch's tariff classification and a substantial-transformation analysis, and what you actually pay also depends on the seller's shipping and duty-payment terms. Ask the seller for the country of origin and whether duties are collected at checkout, and confirm rates against official sources.
