BlancpainThis Blancpain Villeret, reference 7002, is a manually wound timepiece from the 2000s, produced as a limited edition of 200 pieces for the Japanese market. It features a 36mm stainless steel case with a double-stepped bezel and a metallic blue dial with luminous Arabic numerals and sword-shaped hands.
A recessed subsidiary-seconds register is positioned at six o’clock. The watch is powered by the Blancpain Calibre 64-1, a manually wound, ultra-thin movement based on the Peseux 7001, which holds C.O.S.C. chronometer certification. The watch is presented on a matching stainless steel bracelet and is accompanied by its original box, a C.O.S.C. certificate, and documentation regarding a service performed by Blancpain in 2025.
The overall design emphasizes a slim profile with a sportier aesthetic compared to standard Villeret models, owing to the dial color and luminous markings.
