The Blancpain Villeret Grande Date Jour Rétrograde 6668?3642?MMB is a remarkable fusion of classic elegance and functional sophistication. Its 40.5?mm polished 18k red-gold case is beautifully paired with a Mille Mailles red-gold mesh bracelet, creating a seamless and luxurious presence. The clean opaline dial showcases applied Roman numerals and slender leaf-shaped hands, accompanied by a large double-aperture date at 6 o’clock and a retrograde day display elegantly traced with a blued-steel hand between 7 and 9 o’clock—offering practical information without disrupting harmony. Inside, this timepiece is powered by Blancpain’s in-house automatic Caliber 6950GJ.4, a compact yet powerful movement measuring just 5.27?mm thick. Running at a frequency of 4?Hz with twin barrels and a silicon balance spring, it provides a robust 72-hour power reserve. The movement features advanced features like a vertical clutch and safety mechanism, and comprises 344 components and 40 jewels. Its exceptional finishing—Geneva stripes, polished bevels, and perlage—is visible through the transparent sapphire case back. Altogether, the 6668?3642?MMB stands as a fine example of horological artistry, offering a dress watch that delivers both visual elegance and mechanical nuance.
