 In the ‘Quartz Storm’ in the early 1980s, Blancpain revived the moon phase, refocused the world’s attention on the field of mechanical watchmaking, and led the revival of mechanical watchmaking. Internalize the legend, keep innovating, and join the Blancpain’s huge moon phase family Carrousel watch, reflecting the moonlight on your wrist, the moon face at 6 o’clock is fascinating, recording your exclusive reunion moment.

 When the star fell into a white jade plate, the brilliance and soft light met, creating a unique Blancpain 6127. As a new work of Blancpain in 2019, the ‘goose egg window’ at 3 o’clock interprets the graceful beauty. The date displayed ‘in the window’ reminds the travellers who are alone that it is time to embark on the return journey to reunite with the family.

 The zodiac is reunited. The moon phase is the narrator of the time story and an important basis for the running of time. Blancpain upholds the ultimate ideal of ‘the founder of classic timepieces’ and presents the moon phases to the wrist. The moon phase display at 6 o’clock shows that the moon’s face is eye-catching, and the expression is full of desire to talk and rest, full of mystery. The round double-layer bezel and the uneven Roman time scales show Blancpain’s aesthetics of balance and harmony. The most impressive is Blancpain’s ‘signed’ double-layered bezel, which contains the persevering craftsmanship and sincerity of Blancpain watchmakers. The hour hand went round and round, and the moment the eyes stared at the moon between the wrists, the hour hand came home.

     ‘Innovation is tradition’, Blancpain has never stopped on the road to innovation. In 1983, the world’s smallest automatic movement with moon phase profit and loss, month, date and week display was born in Blancpain Studio. The surface of the mother-of-pearl mother-of-pearl looks like the night sky, the gorgeous diamond bezel complements the 6 diamond scales, and the willow leaf-shaped hands witness the moment of reunion. The small moon-phase dial at 6 o’clock echoes the date display at 12 o’clock. The bright moon between the wrists and the stars are radiant and beautiful.

 The moon can be seen in the deep ocean. The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Full Moon Phase Watch combines the sporting characteristics of two of Blancpain’s proud Fifty Fathoms with the moon phase display function. To enhance the readability of the moon phase display, the scale and hands of the ‘deep submersible’ are covered with a luminous coating. Even deep dives under the sea, you can still see the bright moon above fifty centimeters.

 ‘The jade wheel is rolling and the light is shining, and the admiration meets Guixiang Mo.’ The galaxy dazzles the jade wheel when it is empty. In the Mid-Autumn Festival, it strays into the Winter Palace. It is a childhood dream to meet the smiling moon beauty. Fortunately, those dreamy moon beauties have become true in Blancpain. At 12 o’clock, the moon beauty smiles like a flower, and the hour and minute dial of the 6 o’clock position is beautiful. The romantic elegance of the exclusive female lingers on the wrist. When the blue-steel snake-shaped pointer was drawn across the sky, at the end of the month, like a meteor wishing moment, it jumped back to the original moment.

WOSEP school was born in Neuchâtel, Switzerland in 1966, and it has been half a century since then. It is an important watch repair training school in the world today. Since 1986, WOSTEP has become a non-profit organization, and has exported a lot of watch talents, including Kari Voutilainen, a popular Finnish independent watchmaker, who has studied in it. WOSTEP currently offers three versions of courses, including 3000 hours of maintenance, maintenance courses, and 1800 hours of maintenance courses. In addition, because it is a non-profit organization, it needs external support. Many watch groups we are familiar with, such as Swatch, Richemont, and watchmaking brands, Patek Philippe, Rolex, etc. will support WOSTEP people, money, and materials. In order to repay, WOSTEP launched a polishing course in 2015, which is convenient for watch Brands export after-sales processors. Among them, the cooperation with the Swatch Group is the closest. In 1999, the Swiss Swatch Group invested in the establishment of Shanghai University Hayek Clocks, and cooperated with Shanghai University and Switzerland’s WOSTEP Clock School to run schools. In order to improve the students’ practical ability and adaptability, Swatch will provide their brands of watches for WOSTEP students to disassemble and use. However, in order to prevent someone from selling the training watch to the second watch market privately, these special teaching watches will be marked with the exclusive ‘Training’ on the dial and case. There is a tradition in watchmaking schools that students are asked to make a watch or pocket watch when they graduate. Some are propositions and some are free to play. Such works are called ‘School Watch’, which is equivalent to graduation thesis. In 2010, WOSTEP developed the WOSTEP 01 plan, which is a simplified version of ‘School Watch’. Students will be required to grind, assemble, and adjust a manual mechanical movement. At the same time, W-01 students will have the opportunity to share their work Submit to COSC for observatory certification. The ‘School Watch’ is a trial orphan product and is not sold. Generally, students keep it for themselves. Because they are all fledgling students, with the exception of a few talented talents, most of the ‘School Watch’ finished products are not eye-catching and it is difficult to realize sales in the market. However, as far as the author is concerned, it is a testimony of growth and life experience, which can be described as ‘a penny worthless, but not worth selling.’ —END —

Classic Remake
The Pioneer Caplan series is inspired by a single-button chronograph manufactured in 1948. With the design of a rounded glass mirror and a convex caseback, this model is considered to be a typical replica of the ‘pebble’ pocket watch of the early 19th century. The horizontal double-disc chronograph movement manufactured by Lajoux-Perret movement factory is fixed with blue steel screws, and the movement plate and the splint are polished in a circular arc shape, which is more delicate and exquisite.
