A short history of Blancpain
In 1735, Blancpain was established by Jehan-Jaques Blancpain, in Villeret, Switzerland, which makes Blancpain one of the oldest watchmakers in the world. Blancpain is older than The Holy Trinity’s oldest member – Vacheron Constantin, which was established in 1755. It’s quite possible that Blancpain is the oldest existing watch manufacturer in the world.
Blancpain is an elite Swiss watchmaker with a history, prestige, status and preeminence in the world of luxury watches similar to brands such as Breguet and Jaeger LeCoultre.
The headquarters of Blancpain is to be found in Biel, Switzerland and the watch manufacturer is nowadays wholly owned by Swatch Group.
