<br />Blancpains self-winding chronographs are among the
smallest and the slimmest chronograph movements in the world owing to
a totally new construction concept: The coupling-clutch wheel also
functions as a brake; no additional coupling wheel or blocker is
required. And only one finger drives the minute and hour counter. <br>
Established in 1735 by its founder Jehan-Jacques Blancpain, this
master watch manufacturer is renowned for its horological
complications. The company is also well-known for its Fifty-Fathoms
watch, selected by the US Navy and worn by Jacques Cousteau in his
award winning film. In 1984, Blancpain launched the world's smallest
movement, followed shortly thereafter in 1989 by the launch of the
world's thinnest movement.
