Blancpain Villeret Carrousel Répétition Minutes

Blancpain's Villeret Carrousel Répétition Minutes, reference 0235 3631 55B, comes in a 45 mm red gold case. The case measures 15.35 mm thick, with a lug width of 23 mm suited to its proportions. A sapphire crystal covers the white grand feu enamel dial. Inside is the self-winding calibre 235, with a power reserve of 65 hours. The watch pairs a minute repeater with a carrousel, a serious piece of horology rather than a simple time-only Villeret. The alligator leather strap closes with a folding clasp in matching red gold. Blancpain does not publish a water resistance figure for this reference, so treat it as a dry-wear piece only.
