Blancpain proudly announces the re-opening of its showcase on the Côte d’Azur

Located on the famous Croisette since 2002, an address renowned for its prestigious brands, famous hotels and historical buildings, Blancpain’s boutique, elegantly re- decorated, re-enforces the presence of the brand on the Côte d’Azur as well as within its international network of 35 boutiques.

Visitors can find a place reflecting the spirit of Blancpain’s swiss roots from its Manufactory in Le Brassus. The interior’s decoration made of cherry wood is inspired by the architecture of the workshops and workbenches where Blancpain’s master watchmakers practice their craft. Timeless and elegant at the same time, it harmonizes with Blancpain’s core Villeret collection and serves not only as a stage for these timepieces but as well as a showcase for the art of watchmaking.

Facing the Mediterranean sea, this is an ideal place to immerse oneself in the exciting universe of the Fifty Fathoms. This collection reflects Blancpain’s passion for the underwater world which was first expressed in 1953 with the world’s first modern diving watch. Since that time, Blancpain has been aligned with divers and underwater photographers in their explorations and discoveries of the fragile beauty of the oceans, contributing as well to the knowledge of this fascinating universe and generating support to protect it. Today, the Fifty Fathoms collection has been enriched with a new timepiece, the three hands Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe with its grey ceramic plasma case, blue ceramic bezel and blue dial. This model is available in Blancpain’s Cannes Boutique.

Throughout its history, Blancpain has distinguished itself by its capacity to develop exceptional movements which marked successive eras. This precious heritage contributed to the revival of the major horological complications in the 1980s and the main source of inspiration for the watchmakers and artisans of the Manufactory. Over the past ten years, the Manufactory in Le Brassus has displayed a remarkable creative spirit in launching 35 new watch calibres that now equip the finest creations in its collections. They form an impressive line-up of technique and inventiveness dedicated to the inner beauty of the watch.
