HOROLOGY & WATCH PHOTOGRAPHY
Welcome to our dedicated space for Blancpain, the oldest surviving watchmaking brand in the world, founded by Jehan-Jacques Blancpain in 1735. Driven by an unwavering commitment to mechanical excellence—embodied by their famous motto that they have never made a quartz watch and never will—Blancpain represents the highest echelon of Swiss Haute Horlogerie, balancing legendary sports heritage with ultra-complex classic movements.
Here, you will find in-depth technical analyses, historical insights, and deep dives into the core of traditional Swiss horology.
Iconic Collections: From the Depths of the Ocean to Classical Elegance
Fifty Fathoms: The absolute legend. Launched in 1953, it is widely recognized as the first modern diver’s watch in history, setting the standard for military and professional diving timepieces.
Villeret: Named after the brand’s birthplace, this collection is the ultimate expression of classicism, featuring double-stepped bezels, grand feu enamel dials, and complex calendars.
Air Command: A rare and highly sought-after flyback chronograph line that pays tribute to Blancpain’s military aviation history from the 1950s.
Mastery of Complications From the complications created in their Le Brassus high-watchmaking workshop (like the traditional Carrousel and perpetual calendars) to their pioneering efforts in ocean conservation through the Blancpain Ocean Commitment, the brand seamlessly unites artistic craftsmanship with technical prowess.
Blancpain presents the Villeret Ultraplate in a new 38 mm size, combining its signature discreet proportions with an ultra-thin automatic movement.
