One-of-a-kind Carrousel Volant Une Minute replica Omega 1562.40.00 WoMen's watch In tribute to this inestimable distinction and as an emissary of Swiss watch in the Watch and Clock Hall of the Palace Museum, Blancpain has created a one-of-a-kind version of its remarkable karussel watch, christened the Blancpain Qiankun Carrousel.This collection wristwatch is crafted from 18-carat white gold.Its half-open worked opaline dial depicts the "Yin and Yang" symbol and reveals the noble, restrained architecture of the entirely hand-decorated movement.The partially hollowed hour and minute hands are dagger- shaped, while a round dial opening at 12 o'clock highlights the stunning intricacy of the karussel.
The back of the 43.5 mm-diameter case is inscribed with the words "The Palace Museum" and "Pièce Unique".Through the sapphire crystal, one may admire the oscillating weight specially designed for this model and bearing the inscriptions "1735", and the names "Qianlong" and "Blancpain".These inscriptions commemorate a striking coincidence in the history of Blancpain and that of the Forbidden City: 1735, the date replica Omega 1571.61 WoMen's watch Blancpain was founded, also witnessed the coronation of the Chinese emperor Qianlong.At the centre of the oscillating weight, the exquisitely and accurately drawn depiction of the Forbidden City serves as an eloquent reminder of the inseparable tie between this exceptional watch and the showcase in which it will now shine.
The Carrousel Volant Une Minute by Blancpain is a vivid reflection of the innovative strength and pioneering spirit of the Manufacture in Le Brassus.While similar to the tourbillon in terms of its capacity to reduce the effects of gravity on the rate of the replica Omega 1361.71.00 WoMen's watch movement, the karussel had sunk into oblivion for almost a century, until the Blancpain master-watchmakers revealed its potential by entirely rethinking its conception.Blancpain has achieved the impressive feat of miniaturising this mechanism to the size of a wristwatch and conceived the world's only flying karussel to perform a complete rotation in exactly 60 seconds.The technical refinement and the eminent complexity of this masterly watch naturally predestined it for a glorious fate.
