Blancpain Villeret Pulsometer Flyback Chronograph Watch
If your heart has a desire for a watch that combines a very fine and new in-house Blancpain chronograph movement with their Villeret-style case, then this new Blancpain Villeret Pulosmeter Flyback Chronograph timepiece might be for you. Among Blancpain's many watches, the company states that the Villeret is its most classic collection.
