To welcome this leap year, Blancpain unveils the Blancpain Villeret Quantième Perpétuel Green. Since its initial release, the Villeret collection is crafted in steel, gold and platinum with white or blue dial colors. Now, this version features a red gold case with a new sunburst green dial. A color which is inspired by the forest of Le Brassus, nearby Blancpain’s headquarters.

When an extra day needs to be added to the Gregorian calendar, watches with a date get confused. Only a few watch makers can solve this challenge within their movements as an extra day is added at the end of the month of February. Once every four years. On this Quantième Perpétuel that comes with a 40.3-millimeter case it’s all easy to read. Above that, there is also a moon phase at the 6 o’clock position including a moon phase scale.

The Blancpain Villeret Quantième Perpétuel Green has a power reserve of 72 hours

This timepiece is powered by an automatic Blancpain caliber 5954. The entire mechanism, along with its meticulous finishing, red gold honeycomb oscillating weight and silicon balance spring, is visible through its sapphire case back. The movement has 351 components producing a three-day power reserve.

The Blancpain Villeret Quantième Perpétuel Green comes on a brown alligator leather strap secured with a folding clasp.
