Blancpain, often hailed as ‘the conscience of watchmaking,’ made waves in 1993 with the debut of its first erotic watch, known as the ‘Spring Palace.’ This piece is undeniably one of the most unique artistic expressions in the history of watches.

Crafted meticulously using live models as inspiration, every depiction may seem provocative at first glance. However, if we delve into the 17th-century British aristocracy’s fascination with enlightenment, freedom, happiness, and human nature, it becomes clear that the Spring Palace watch is far from mere vulgarity. It’s a celebration of art.

This watch belongs to a category where animated figures are a shared theme, often concealing the moving figurines on the back of the watch. This allows the owner to enjoy this private ‘performance’ discreetly, showcasing a blend of sophistication among gentlemen.

Featuring a classic design with a special Shanghai movement, a 40mm diameter, and a simple and comfortable original pin buckle, this masterpiece conceals secrets beneath its perfect exterior. Are you intrigued once again?
