Complications

Flying Carrousel

A flying carrousel is a complex watch mechanism that counters gravity’s effect on timekeeping. Unlike a tourbillon, it uses two gear trains—one for the escapement and one for carriage rotation. "Flying" refers to the lack of an upper bridge, giving it a floating look.

Secured movement

A secured movement is a watchmaking innovation designed to protect delicate mechanisms and ensure lasting precision. By preventing accidental damage when setting the watch, it enhances reliability over time. At Blancpain, secured movements are a hallmark of our craftsmanship.

Minute Repeater

A minute repeater is a prestigious watch complication that chimes the time on demand using tones: low for hours, mixed for quarter hours, and high for minutes. Activated by a side lever, it features intricate mechanics and is revered for its technical mastery and artistry in watchmaking.
