Blancpain Celebrate 275 Years With a New Villeret

Blancpain is one of the most prestigious and oldest brands in the world, easily recognisable for the beautiful classic look of the watches.

It is 275 years since Jehan-Jacques Blancpain secured his name as a watchmaker. To mark the anniversary, Blancpain has given its Villeret collection an innovated new look and finish. The complications and the details of Villeret collection have been at Blancpain’s core since the early 1980s.

The new Villeret series features a classic day-date complete calendar moon-phase model with a fully secure calendar mechanism and under-lug correctors. The Villeret's serpent date indicator features a new rose-gold case and the watch back has a half-hunter rose-gold case.

The complete calendar moon-phase has always be the most signature look of Blancpain Villeret series. The exclusive in-house movement of Blancpain is fitted with a balance oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with an antimagnetic index assembly, and it comes with two guaranteeing it a 72-hour power reserve.

Blancpain’s signature combination of look, style, the complication of the movement, the original idea of watch-making and the appreciation of the historical hand craft technique has long been the mark of the watchmaker's pedigree.

This new Villeret series continues that tradition of fine craftmanship.
