225

The 2008 self-winding 225 caliber incorporates a one-minute flying carrousel. Similar to a tourbillon, this mechanism mitigates the impact of gravity on the balance wheel's rate by rotating the escapement through all vertical positions. Blancpain pioneered the use of this long-neglected complication in a wristwatch, featuring a carriage that completes a full rotation every minute. Additionals: Power Reserve Indicator, Carrousel
