Blancpain has unveiled the new "Diamond Bloom" from its "Ladybird Colors" series. Positioned as the high-end model in the series, this timepiece features diamonds set in a snow-setting technique on various parts of the case and buckle, in addition to the center of the dial. Two models will be available, one with an 18K white gold case and the other with an 18K red gold case, and both will be sold in an extremely limited quantity, almost on a made-to-order basis.
A supreme jewelry watch featuring a complete snow setting.
Blancpain has unveiled two moon phase models from its "Ladybird Colors" ladies' watch collection, both lavishly adorned with diamonds. Each model comes with two different colored alligator leather straps, allowing wearers to enjoy changing the look to suit different occasions, just like with previous models in the series.
Automatic winding (Cal. 1163L). 30 jewels. 21,600 vibrations/hour. Power reserve approximately 100 hours. 18K white gold case (diameter 34.90mm, thickness 10.43mm). 3 ATM water resistance. 17,765,000 yen (tax included).
The highlight of this timepiece is the snow-set diamonds that cover the entire watch. 919 diamonds of various sizes are set on the case, crown, bezel, dial, and even the buckle, totaling 4.794 carats.
In addition, the arrangement is precisely calculated to minimize the visibility of the base gold surface, and the dazzling shine creates a soft, rounded, pebble-like shape.
Automatic movement (Cal. 1163L). 30 jewels. 21,600 vibrations/hour. Power reserve approximately 100 hours. 18K rose gold case (diameter 34.90mm, thickness 10.43mm). 3 ATM water resistance. 17,765,000 yen (tax included).
The dial is made of high-quality mother-of-pearl. The white gold model features glacier blue Roman numeral indices, while the red gold model has royal purple indices, and these are paired with skeletonized sage-shaped hands. In addition, 222 diamonds are set in the center, and the brand logo, transferred onto the sapphire crystal, floats above them.
The movement houses the Cal.1163L, which was also used in previous "Ladybird Colors Moonphase" models. Despite its slim design, fitting within a 34.90mm diameter and 10.43mm thick case, it boasts a power reserve of approximately 100 hours and also offers magnetic resistance thanks to its silicon balance spring, making it a highly practical movement.
