A Timepiece Combining Multiple Complications with Skill
Since the debut of its first model in 2002, the "Complete Calendar GMT" has established an important position as a representative manufacture item for BLANCPAIN.
And now, in 2018, the Villeret Complete Calendar GMT, a reinterpretation of complication design, appears in BLANCPAIN's most classical Villeret collection and will be exhibited at Baselworld.
The "Villeret Complete Calendar GMT" further enhances its complexity with a 24-hour GMT function, added to the classical design of a small window displaying the month, a blue serpent hand indicating the date via the chapter ring numerals, and a moon phase at 6 o'clock. The home time is indicated by a red-tipped hand, while the main hands show the local time.
The calendar and moon phase can be adjusted with fingertips, without tools, thanks to BLANCPAIN's proprietary under-lug correctors. These correctors are discreetly placed and the absence of any indentations on the case band ensures a smooth profile. Meanwhile, the local time can be easily adjusted in one-hour increments using the crown.
This latest Villeret model, embodying BLANCPAIN's elegance, is designed for jet-setters and travel enthusiasts exploring the world.
