The Blancpain Villeret collection takes its name from the village where the brand was founded, embodying the brand’s long-standing tradition of classical watchmaking. This neo-vintage chronograph example in 18k yellow gold offers a more substantial presence on the wrist than the ultra-thin dress variants, while still retaining the collection’s signature elegance through its double-stepped bezel.

The watch features a white tri-register dial with gold Roman numerals, pointed hands with luminous centers, a black outer minute track, and a date window neatly integrated within the continuous seconds sub-dial. Subtle, well-proportioned pushers and a crown signed with Blancpain’s “B” complete the case design.

Powered by the caliber 1185 automatic movement and fitted with a masculine brown leather strap, this Villeret represents a sportier interpretation of the classic model—successfully combining presence, functionality, and dressy elements.

Some wear shown: light scratches, small nicks and small patina.
