To wear a Blancpain watch on a daily basis, or to add one to your collection of timepieces is a sure and unmistakable signifier of an individual of impeccable taste one who recognises and appreciates the twin values of tradition and innovation, and keeps them close at all times. Despite this, the company has remained a reliable vanguard in the watchmaking world, and never stops setting the standard for others to aspire to.
As a result, they’ve consistently defined, and then redefined, the watchmaking industry as a whole, turning it on its head with every age they stride through.Įver dedicated to the importance of the bespoke, the handmade, and the unique, Blancpain has never - and claims that it will never - produce either a digital or quartz timepiece. They have shown that tradition and a commitment to old-fashioned excellence can sit hand in hand with such values. For four centuries, Blancpain has shown mastery of innovation, experimentation and forethought.
Today, this unique Haute-Horlogerie company continues to capture the imagination, hopes, and dreams of fine watch fans and collectors across the globe, consistently producing watches which epitomise the finest points of the industry. Since 1735, the Swiss timepiece company Blancpain has shown the world a dedication to the very utmost in watch creation, surviving the ages to become the oldest watchmakers in the world. These, in turn, gave rise to mechanical timepieces of exquisite intricacy, before the electronic and digital ages brought about watches of ever-increasing accuracy and ease of use. We’ve erected stone circles, marking the solstices and equinoxes which were replaced by rudimentary candle clocks, sundials, and pendulums. Ever since our earliest ancestors watched the shadows lengthen and shorten across the day, we as a species have attempted to quantify the passing of one moment to the next. Measuring and marking the passage of time is part of what makes us human.
