In 2010 and 2011, Blancpain reinterpreted the beauty of the Villeret series with delicate methods, while giving the watch a more modern look, while retaining the classic beauty of the watch. The new Villeret series incorporates Blancpain’s latest research results in the field of movement manufacturing.
The new models not only do not deviate from tradition, but further emphasize and highlight the spirit of this series. The watch is paired with a large open flame enamel dial, which once again proves the value of Blancpain’s watchmaking technology. The enamel material is not easy to wear and always shines charmingly, which is especially suitable for the exterior structure of fine watchmaking timepieces that can be passed down from generation to generation. To fire a large-fire enamel dial, multiple layers of enamel must be continuously fired, and the dial must be baked at a furnace temperature exceeding 1000 ° C between each process. After that, the enamelist used enamel to draw numbers or time scales on the dials, and some dials even required more than 12 baking processes. After each process, the enamelist carefully repairs and inspects the dial by hand. The surface processing, molding, or window cutting of the dial is also a very delicate process, and it also requires a pure fire process to complete. As a result, Blancpain is the only watchmaker to create a convex enamel dial.
