The Origins of Blancpain: An Industry Pioneer
Blancpain was founded by Jehan-Jacques Blancpain in Villeret, Switzerland. Over the centuries, Blancpain has created numerous innovations that have driven the watch industry forward, such as producing some of the first automatic wristwatches and manufacturing Grand Complications. Despite facing the Quartz crisis in the 70s, Blancpain remained steadfast in its commitment to 100% mechanical watchmaking, eventually making a magnificent comeback, notably with the introduction of its famous Masterpiece collection.

-
Long-standing History: Being the oldest watch brand in the world gives Blancpain a long-accumulated heritage of innovation and craftsmanship.
-
Legendary Innovation: Blancpain is the initiator of many complex movements, such as the "Carrousel," a mechanism similar to the Tourbillon, designed to counter the effects of gravity.
