A beautiful Blancpain Villeret Minute Repeater, crafted in 18k yellow gold. Its design is elegantly restrained, yet within its 34mm case lies one of horology’s most intricate complications: the minute repeater. With a gentle push of the lever discreetly set into the side of the case, the repeater turns time into sound, producing a warm, melodic chime to relay the hour and minute — like a quiet celebration of mechanical artistry.

The case features a sapphire display back, revealing the self winding calibre with its 21k gold rotor. This example is presented on its original Blancpain leather strap with 18k yellow gold tang buckle, and comes with box, papers and instruction booklet. Circa 1990s.
