Villeret Tourbillon Heure Sautante Minutes Rétrograde

A jumping hour complication displays time with an hour numeral that changes instantly at the top of each hour, rather than moving gradually. Powered by a mechanism of gears and springs, it stores energy and releases it precisely, offering a crisp, mechanical leap in time.

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.

A power-reserve indicator is a practical watch complication that displays the remaining energy stored in a mechanical movement. It lets the wearer know how long the watch will run before needing to be wound. Valued for its convenience, this feature enhances both manual and automatic timepieces with functional elegance.

A flying tourbillon is a sophisticated watch mechanism that counters gravity’s effect on accuracy. Unlike traditional tourbillons, it lacks an upper bridge, creating a "floating" illusion. Supported from one side, it highlights the watchmaker’s precision and offers a mesmerizing view in motion.
