Today’s Haute Time Watch of the Day comes from Blancpain’s Villeret Collection, it is the Squelette 8 Jours. 

The Villeret Squelette 8 Jours is a perfect combination of Blancpains’ watchmaking history and hand finishing techniques in which the brand takes great pride.  This beautiful timepiece displays its skeletonized, openworked movement which features incredible detail and engraving on the bridges, mainplates and every piece of the movement visible through the sapphire crystal and case back. 

The Squelette 8 Jours features a white gold 38 mm case which houses a manufacture Calibre 1333SQ movement with an 8 day power reserve (as the name states). 

Blancpains’ Villeret Squelette 8 Jours is water resistant to 30 meters and is shown here on a black Mississippi alligator leather strap.
