Blancpain Villeret Ultraplate Steel 6223-1127-55A

About This Watch

The Blancpain Villeret Ultraplate in stainless steel represents one of the most accessible entry points to the world of haute horlogerie, offering a genuine manufacture ultra-thin movement at a remarkably competitive price. The caliber 1150 measures just 3.25mm in thickness yet delivers an extraordinary 100-hour power reserve through its twin-barrel configuration — a technical achievement that few ultra-thin movements can match. The blue dial adds a modern, vibrant character to the classical Villeret design, while the double-stepped bezel and Roman numerals maintain the collection's timeless identity. At 7.7mm total thickness and 40mm diameter, the Ultraplate is a supremely elegant dress watch that disappears under a shirt cuff. The stainless steel case makes this haute horlogerie quality accessible to a broader audience without sacrificing any of the movement's technical merit or finishing quality. The box sapphire crystal adds vintage warmth. For collectors seeking an entry into Blancpain or a refined daily dress watch, the steel Ultraplate is exceptional value.
