It is often said that love is not a sweet word, but a sincere affection that is revealed in every move. On the occasion of Tanabata Valentine's Day, Blancpain carefully prepared holiday gifts for the lovers, telling the long-lasting love and opening the most moving moment of the festival with an accurate and high-quality chronograph.
Blancpainvilleret Series Pulse Meter Flyback Chronograph (Men's)
The blancpain Blancpain villeret series pulse meter flyback chronograph with an automatic winding movement with a frequency of up to 36,000 vibrations per hour (5 Hz) and a return chronograph function. In addition, for the first time, a pulse meter has been added to the watch, which allows for quick and easy heart rate measurement, which is the perfect combination of complex craftsmanship and practical functions.
The villeret pulse meter flyback chronograph is equipped with a new Blancpain-produced movement with a diameter of 13 decirés, which perfectly matches the size of the case. The movement consists of a total of 322 components, including a silicon spring, equipped with a vertical clutch and a column wheel with a control chronograph function, and the vibration frequency is set to 36,000 times per hour for the first time. In addition, the watch features a flyback function, which can be instantly reset and restarted by tapping the button at 4 o'clock, which is extremely useful for continuous segment timing.
In addition to the above-mentioned powerful features, the watch has also added a pulse meter function for the first time. Before the invention of the pulse meter, people could only rely on accurately counting the number of heart beats in 60 seconds to determine the pulse, and the production of the pulse meter greatly reduced the time it took doctors and nurses to measure the heart rate of patients. Today, the chronograph hands on the watch alone and a specially marked pulse dial can easily display the patient's heart rate speed on the dial without counting. Simply press the chronograph button and stop the chronograph after 30 beats to read the heart rate per minute from the pulse dial reading pointed to by the pointer.
This watch inherits all the classic aesthetic elements of the villeret collection, with a domed white large flame enamel dial, a pulse dial wrapped around an enamel-embellished Roman numeral mini-hour dial, a 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph dial on one side, and a date display window at six o'clock. The new red gold model has a case diameter of 43.6 mm and is complemented by a brown alligator leather strap. The case-back case is also backed by sapphire crystal, allowing you to glimpse the oscillating weight of the honeycomb pattern, taking in the power of Blancpain's latest movement.
