Blancpain Villeret Ultraplate

Blancpain's Villeret Ultraplate, reference 6224 4628 55B, measures 38 mm across in steel. The case is 8.35 mm thick, with a lug width of 20 mm. A self-winding calibre 1150 drives the watch and stores 100 hours of power reserve. The white dial sits under a sapphire crystal and is set with diamonds. Central seconds and a date function share the layout, kept clean in the usual Villeret style. An alligator leather strap closes with a folding clasp. Water resistance is rated to 30 metres, modest for a dress watch of this style.
