Lot Essay

This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

This highly attractive platinum watch is most unusual in Blancpain’s production. Featuring a black dial with luminous Arabic numerals, it was made in a limited edition of 24 pieces as a special order for Brunei. The dial and luminous hands lend a very appealing vintage vibe reminiscent of wristwatches of the 1930s and 40s.
