How to recognize a masterpiece of advanced watchmaking with just one glance? Some people need to see the precise and clear large and complex structures, and others need to see the dazzling and extraordinary craftsmanship. However, experts among collectors, facing a warm and elegant protein-colored dial, already know this is no ordinary formal watch.
Because, at this moment, the actual expert has quickly caught the doorway: BLANCPAIN and “Répétition minutes” on the dial show its identity – this is the representative of the significant complex function in the field of advanced watchmaking “Three Questions” Wristwatches belong to Blancpain’s “Three Questions Two Tibetans.” Only Blancpain can create the “Three Questions” like this: the pusher for the first Tibetan timekeeping is placed on the back of the double round bezel, and the second Tibetan gold-carved movable doll is placed on the back of the watch. In this way, leave a piece of plain white to the hasty and unaware eyesight and the fundamental dignity to the elegant gentleman with low-key and prudent beauty to understand, appreciate, and resonate.
Limited to China, a unique product in the world, Blancpain grandly released the Hidden Dragon Minute Repeater Gold Carved Doll Watch, reinterpreting Blancpain’s classic style of “Minute Repeater Two Tibetans,” insisting on hand-crafted large and complex movements, imposing Switzerland The superb craftsmanship of the national treasure-level golden carving action figure also erases the suspicion of exaggeration for collectors, allowing the domineering golden dragon to soar under the whitening.

The ultimate work of the V series: the linked minute repeater grand complication and the master of the golden carving art

It wasn’t until he noticed the “Répétition minutes” on the protein-colored dial and the precious metal pusher on the left side of the double round case that this watch showed the supreme status of the complicated “minute repeater.” With a slight push, the curtain of an “advanced watchmaking” technical event was officially opened. Inspired, the cathedral’s crisp and pleasant three-dimensional bell immediately sounded. The lengthened gong creates a clear sound, and the hour, moment, and minute are instantly played on the wrist.

Flip the watch through the sound and sapphire glass back, and a golden dragon full of dignity jumps on the blue PVD-coated K-gold substrate, vivid and lifelike. Dozens of movable joints, such as the dragon head, dragon claws, and dragon tail, move with the sound of the minute repeater, which is pleasing to the eye. The complex golden dragon is hand-carved, the multi-layer carvings of the bright and matte metal surfaces overlap, and the golden light flows between the three-dimensional dragon scales. Tenglong goes straight up, and the promising light is overflowing. There are only a handful of masters who can complete such complex gold carving techniques. Behind this, you need to learn all the basics of art, including sketching, painting, engraving, etc. You need ten years to learn to engrave on the metal material of 18K gold on the back of the watch.

The perfect combination of large complex functions and gold carving art benefits from the brand’s most minor minute repeater movement, Cal.332, created by Blancpain. The birth of this movement in 1993 symbolized another new milestone in the history of watchmaking. It was the world’s first-minute repeater watch combined with erotic dolls.
Cal.332 movement
In addition, given the damage to the movement that may be caused by the adjustment of the time in the middle of the traditional repeater watch, Blancpain will automatically interrupt the drive connection between the minute repeater mechanism and the crown when adjusting the height, reducing the risk of movement damage. The movement protection mechanism “hidden” inside the watch cannot hide Blancpain’s relentless pursuit of advanced watchmaking skills.
Dragon leading the trend, the choice of V
The Blancpain V series has a variety of popular classic timepieces, interpreting the simple and noble gentleman temperament. Among them, the blue is restrained and deep, and the green is timeless and elegant.
