Building upon the success of Blancpain's celebrated Six Masterpieces, the manufacture entered a new chapter of haute horlogerie by combining its most prestigious complications into a single wristwatch. The present reference 5335 is among the finest expressions of this philosophy, uniting a minute repeater and a perpetual calendar within an elegant 34 mm Villeret case. At its heart beats the automatic calibre 5335, a sophisticated movement whose compact dimensions and technical complexity exemplify Blancpain's remarkable achievements during the mechanical renaissance of the late twentieth century. The present example is distinguished by its yellow gold case, now displaying an even natural patina that enhances its character. The classical silvered dial, featuring Roman numerals, is complemented by a sapphire display caseback revealing the beautifully finished movement. Further enhancing its desirability, the watch is offered complete with its original guarantee and presentation box. The present watch is further distinguished by its provenance from the collection of Johnny Dorelli, the celebrated Italian singer, actor and television personality.
