Blancpain L Evolution Complete Calendar Moonphase 8 Day Complete Canadian Package
This watch features:
• Multi-level dial features a grey metallic outer rim with a large cutout in the center displaying a baseplate with a contrasting shade of grey colour & a fine Coates de Geneva finish.
• Applied polished steel dot hour markers, filled with luminous material.
• Oversized 3 & 9 Roman numerals gives the dial a bold & instantly recognizable look.
• Polished steel hands with skeleton tips & luminous filled center.
• Complications:
• Date indicated by the red half-moon tipped rose gold hand pointing to the current date printed on the outer rim of the dial.
• Day & Month windows located beneath the 12 o'clock position. The lower level of the dial has a cutout allowing a view of a considerable portion of the day & month wheel - creating an impressive visual depth effect.
• Moonphase window sub-dial located at the 6 o'clock position.
• Small seconds hand set in the center of the moonphase sundial at the 6 o'clock position.
• Power reserve indicator window at the 12 o'clock position.
• An impressive technical accomplishment: The day, date, month & moonphase functions may all be changed as at any time of the day or night, even close to midnight - an operation that would damage most other movements.
• Detachable lugs allowing for an easy way to switch straps & fit a steel bracelet to the watch.
• Blancpain Caliber 66r9: • Contains 36 jewels.
• Composed of 325 components.
• Flat balance spring allows for a perfect isochronism.
• Balance made from titanium, while extremely hard to machine titanium is less sensitive to temperature changes thus allowing for a much more consistent rate & is an extremely light metal thus consuming less energy to power, last but not least titanium is anti-magnetic as well.
• An impressive power reserve of 192 hours (8 days), achieved using 3 barrels.
• High density gold rotor ensuring a high efficiency winding.
• Calibre measurements: 7.60mm thick x 32mm in diameter.
This watch is No.5. It does not come with the OEM strap. It was replaced with a Hirsch strap as installed.
Original list price in Canada was just over $30,000 as the US list was $24,100
This watch comes complete with everything including outer box, wood grain box, instructions, setting tool, warranty card stamped by an AD in Vancouver dated 2010, polish cloth, warranty booklet and information. The watch does not have warranty left.
The condition is as follows: watch head very clean with minor desk scratches. Excellent plus for an 8 year old watch. The strap is NOT an OEM but a Hirsch strap. The Deployant is OEM and is very clean and snaps well for closing. The only issue is the pad inside the box is fraying and looks a little shabby.
Nice complete package and with Canadian Papers easy to travel with this watch.
I will ask $13,999.00 for this very unusual and clever timepiece. Plus insured shipping or FTF in the GTA
These watches are rare and extremely well made. Not too often they come up on the secondary market.
