STRIKING PRESENCE
No doubt about it – Blancpain’s Villeret Tourbillon Volant Une Minute 12 Jours puts the tourbillon at the centre of things. It takes pride of place at 12 o’clock, and there is little to distract from it, with the watch’s white enamel dial, accented only by refined Roman numerals and skeletonised leaf hands. It’s perfect for fans of high horology that’s low-maintenance – the automatic timepiece has an impressive 12-day power reserve.
