Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph watch

The Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph watch is an outstanding and versatile timepiece, which features classical styling, a pedigreed mechanical movement, and masterful, dedicated craftsmanship. Like other members of the Blancpain Leman watch collection, the Flyback Chronograph watch features the characteristic round Blancpain form, with the distinctive and elegant stepped bezel. The 38mm case, whose contours and polish have been refined by numerous hand operations, is equipped with a well-insulated case, and a screwed-down crown, chronograph pushers, and caseback, which all contribute to the watch achieving its warranted 100 meter water resistance.

The Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph watch is powered by the distinguished selfwinding F185 Calibre movement, a now-legendary chronograph movement developed by Blancpain and their famous movement Manufacture, Frederic Piguet. Combining 308 hand-finished parts in the miniscule space of 5.5 millimeters, the F185 Calibre shows off traditional finishing--Cotes de Geneve and perlage on the top surfaces of the various bridges, and anglage (chamfering) on their edges. The chronograph mechanism of the Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph watch is controlled by the traditional method of a column wheel; the vertical clutch design ensures that the chronograph hand starts with no backlash.

The Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph watch is offered in polished stainless steel with a choice of a black or opaline dial, both variations being accented with gently stylized Arabic hour markers and sword-shaped hands applied with ample amounts of luminous material; there is also a very sporty titanium version with a red-accented dial, that is complete with the rubber "Aqualung" strap and a titanium deployant buckle. Blancpain offers the stainless steel Leman Flyback Chronograph watches on a strap of calfskin or crocodile, complete with a stainless steel deployant buckle, or the magnificently crafted X-71 bracelet, which stands out due to its intricate construction and extensive hand finishing.
