Brief Brand History for Blancpain:
Blancpain was founded in 1735 by Jehan-Jacques Blancpain. In 1926 it was the first company to bring to the french market an automatic watch. After a 50 year halt, Blancpain is revitalized by JC Biver and Jacques Piguet. They produced split second chronographs, tourbillons and repeaters. The Swatch Group purchased Blancpain in 2000. To this day, Blancpain produces less than 10,000 pcs per year. The factory is right next to the famous movement maker Frederic Piguet. Therefore, it can be said that Blancpain features an in-house movement. It should also be pointed out that Blancpain does not use an assembly line production rather each watchmaker assembles a watch from start to finish.
Product Line Overview:
Blancpain recently has unveiled the first watch with a running equation of time, perpetual calendar, and a moonphase with retrograde. The "Villeret" and the "Leman" series are the most popular. This year they even added a single button chronograph to the "Villeret" line. And for sport, Blancpain recently released the new generation of "Fifty Fathoms" watches.
