This year, Blancpain introduces the first model with a flinqué lacquered dial in its prestigious Villeret collection. The dial, covered with several layers of translucent blue lacquer, is offset with elegant silvered Roman numerals and an inner date index to which a serpentine-shaped indicator points. There is a small, retrograde seconds index at 6 o’clock. The movement is the ultra-slim automatic calibre 7663Q, with a three-day power reserve. The date is adjustable by Villeret’s signature under-horn corrector at 5 o’clock
