The Blancpain Womens Saint-Valentine 2008 – Romantic moonphase watch
Posted on January 17th, 2008 1 comment
Just in time for the season of Love, Blancpain has introduced a new complete calendar watch with moon phases. The limited edition Blancpain Women Saint-Valentin 2008 watch courts the affections of women watch connoisseurs–as well as those ladies who are just beginning to venture into exclusive, mechanical watches–with a charmingly feminine interpretation.
This Blancpain watch is very appealing. While staying true to the fundamentals of the classic Leman Complete Calendar timepiece, Blancpain has spiced this popular watch up with just the right amount of tasteful feminine elements to make it tempting to women customers (or men who are looking for a romantic watch for the special woman in their life). The mother of pearl dial is unique to this model, displaying very distinctive Arabic numerals and sword hands, but the most striking feature is the lacquered red heart which rotates in the place where the sub seconds hand usually would be. Red hash marks in the seconds scale and the center of the dial also carry on with the amorous theme. A double row of round brilliant diamonds, expertly set on the bezel, also lend their scintillating charm to this seductive horological creation.
Blancpain attention to minute detail is apparent everywhere–for example, look closely at the moonphase disc at six o’clock. You see not a “man on the moon” but instead, a distinctly female face, with shapely lips, and long eyelashes!�
