The Ladybird collection reflects Blancpain's pioneering role in the history of women's watches. From the first self-winding ladies' wristwatch in 1930 to the refined and technical timepieces of today, along with the smallest mechanical movement several decades ago, the Ladybird collection embodies Blancpain's passion for the extraordinary. It is designed for women who refuse to compromise on either aesthetics or technical sophistication.
Blancpain’s emblematic moon phase complication finds its place on the Ladybird Colors models, beating to the tune of Calibre 1163L with its 100-hour power reserve. Reintroduced in 1983 in the wake of the quartz crisis, this complication enabled the Maison to demonstrate that a mechanical timepiece stemmed from extraordinary expertise, and that quartz could never replace a complex mechanical watchmaking creation. It thus came to symbolise the revival of mechanical watchmaking. Adorned with traditional fine watchmaking decorations, such as beveling, circular graining and snailing, this calibre is visible through a sapphire crystal case back.
The dials of these models showcase expert craftsmanship with their playful use of proportions and textures. The Roman numerals vary in size, with those prominently displayed at the top becoming more subtle toward the bottom, creating a gradual and aesthetically pleasing transition. Each numeral also undergoes a five-phase colouring process to achieve its deep, vibrant hues.
