Blancpain Villeret Calendrier Chinois Traditionnel

Blancpain's Villeret Calendrier Chinois Traditionnel, reference 0888 3432E 55B, comes in a 45.2 mm platinum case. The case measures 15.1 mm thick, with a lug width of 23 mm suited to its alligator leather strap. A sapphire crystal covers the salmon Grand Feu enamel dial. Inside is the self-winding calibre 3638, which stores 168 hours of power reserve, a full week. The watch combines a moon phase display with central seconds, date and month indications, all drawn from the traditional Chinese calendar. The strap closes with a folding clasp. Blancpain rates the case to 30 metres, modest for a piece built around calendar complexity rather than depth.
