Verdict:

Blancpain comes with no nonsense packaging material. Instead of using typical wood as material, BP FF comes with an innovative idea:Pelican case. It reflects the character of Fifty Fathoms: strong and sturdy.
Omega has improved the material for the packaging. Comparing it to the typical Omega packaging, red box coated with synthetic leather, the usage of foam as packaging material is beneficial for long term storage.
Overall, Blancpain packaging appears to be more professional, more innovative, better looking and higher quality than Omega PloProf.
