Product Description

In 2004, Blancpain introduced a groundbreaking timepiece known as the Equation du Temps Marchante. This innovative watch marked a significant milestone as it brought the intricate equation of time complication, previously exclusive to large clocks and pocket watches, to the realm of wristwatches. The skilled watchmakers at Blancpain embarked on a remarkable journey to incorporate this complex feature into a timepiece, resulting in the creation of a unique gear train and a sophisticated differential mechanism. By seamlessly integrating the equation gear train controlled by a specially designed cam with the watch's minute hand train, they successfully powered the running equation hand. Caliber 3863, the engine behind this horological marvel, features a plus/minus scale equation display, further enhancing the watch's functionality. This exceptional timepiece, distinguished as the world's first wristwatch with such capabilities, combines the equation displays with a novel retrograde moon phase indicator and a comprehensive perpetual calendar. The movement is meticulously adorned with hand-carved bridges and a custom-crafted winding rotor bearing a captivating depiction of the sun, showcasing Blancpain's dedication to craftsmanship and artistry. The Blancpain Reference 6638-3431-55B boasts a platinum case and a grand feu enamel white dial, exuding elegance and sophistication. This timepiece not only embodies technical prowess but also exemplifies the brand's commitment to pushing the boundaries of watchmaking innovation.
