The Villeret Tourbillon Carrousel adds an innovative edge to Blancpain's classic Villeret collection
Over the years Blancpain has preserved tradition but it is also an innovator, which is evident from the watchmaker’s Villeret Tourbillon Carrousel. This handsome model takes the aged aesthetic of the brand’s Villeret collection and adds two rotating escapements, a tourbillon at 12 o’clock and a carrousel at 6 o’clock—a combination that makes the watch the first of its kind. A red-gold case houses a grand feu enamel dial with rose-gold Roman numerals marking the hours. What more could you want from a seven-figure timepiece?
