Bianchet Bianchet Origine
Collection profile · 2021

Why it matters
This is the collection that crystallized Bianchet’s identity: a tonneau sports-watch platform using Golden Ratio design cues, curved-wrist ergonomics, and the house’s tourbillon-first philosophy. It sits at the brand’s origin point and remains central to the current collection structure.
