Famed as horology’s oldest watchmakers, Blancpain’s reputation is that of unbridled craftsmanship, quality and luxury. With an eye for impeccable design, their timepieces have sat on the wrists of some of history’s most influential people. Standing as a marker of the brand’s success over the centuries, the Villeret collection pays homage to Blancpain’s heritage as it is named after the brand’s birthplace. Offered here, we have the Villeret Triple Calendar Moonphase ref. 6595 in two-tone 18kt yellow gold and stainless steel. The watch boasts a white dial with weekday and month indicators in separate windows at 12 o’clock along with a central pointer date hand and a playfully illustrated moonphase display at 6 o’clock. Leaning into the mechanical excellence that Blancpain are known for, the Villeret collection is famed its classical constructions and typically complicated movements, of which the example that we have here features. With its stunning white dial boasting 18kt yellow gold applied Roman numerals hour markers and a stepped gold and steel bezel; its overall aesthetic is of refined luxury as the watch leans on Blancpain’s heritage in abundance and champions it to great effect while utilizing a luxurious construction that draws immediate comparisons to the craftsmanship that we expect from a watchmaker like Blancpain.

Watch is in excellent cosmetic condition. Case shows light wear, and oxidation along the gold bezel. The watch is fitted on a generic strap and buckle. Please note that the movement ticks at time of cataloging, but the timekeeping is poor and a service is recommended.

Boasting a hefty construction and a stunning white dial, this Villeret Triple Calendar Moonphase boasts the best materials that horology has to offer. Alongside its impressive movement and Blancpain's unrivalled heritage, this makes for quite the timepiece indeed.
