Blancpain has been making high-end mechanical watches that set standards of excellence since 1735. A custodian of the watchmaking tradition, Blancpain nevertheless seeks to surprise with its spirit of innovation and taste for the provocative. Blancpain has a taste for boldness and provocation which finds expression in the latest creations of the brand. It is conceived from the start as an object of grace – a moment of pure emotion. Whether destined for the first Traditional Chinese Calendar wristwatch, a Split-Seconds Flyback Chronograph or the Carrousel Minute Repeater with automata, every component of their movements, even if hidden, is hand-decorated by their artist engravers employing traditional skills.
