New Blancpain Villeret Demi-Fuseau Horaire GMT Automatic Watches

Blancpain can’t wait until BaselWorld 2011 to present this new Villeret Demi-Fuseau Horaire GMT automatic watch, an update or reinterpretation of its earlier Villeret model launched in 2010. Featuring a second time zone that can be adjusted in half-hour increments, the new Villeret watch makes it possible to be punctual for travellers to countries with half-hour time-zone differences, such as India, Australia, and even Canada.

While driving a remarkable second time zone at 12 o’clock, the watch’s heart, a self-winding calibre BP 5254DF movement, also brings forth an impressive array of functions, including the date/night indication for the reference time appears in the counter at 9 o’clock, the date aperture at 6 o’clock, and the Date Change (D) or Time-Zone (F) indication at 4 o’clock. Composed of 321 individual parts, the mechanism incorporates a rose gold winding rotor and offers a power reserve of 72 hours.

As the inside mechanism performs a further demonstration of Blancpain’s incredible spirit of innovation, the exterior design illustrates an exquisitely balanced presentation of Blancpain’s pursuit for beauty and elegance. Embraced by a sophisticated round-shaped case in rose gold, the guilloched opaline dial exposes Roman numerals on its extremity. Rotating gracefully over them are centralized gold hands, supported by a slender seconds hand. The case boasts a top sapphire crystal, elegant lugs and an appealing crown at 3 o’clock. The button on the crown’s tip is meant for adjusting the second time-zone, which can be also used for setting the date. The rose gold case-back cover protects the transparent sapphire crystal, ensuring a lossless view of the intricate workings of the inside mechanism.

The new fake Blancpain timepiece embraces its wearer’s wrist with a alvazel-lined leather strap. I must admit that this novelty is one of the most refined and elegant watch with sophisticated complications. No wonder it will be the highlight for the brand in 2011.
