Blancpain Villeret Quantième Complet

About this reference

The Blancpain Villeret Quantième Complet reference 6263-3642-55B is a 38mm complete calendar moonphase timepiece cased in 18k pink gold. This reference was introduced in the early 2000s and remained a staple of the Villeret collection for over a decade before being superseded by larger 40mm iterations. Collectors value this model for its traditional proportions and the caliber 6763 automatic movement, which provides a 100-hour power reserve. The dial features an opaline finish with applied Roman numerals and the signature "smiling" moonphase indicator at six o'clock. Unlike later versions featuring under-lug correctors, this reference utilizes recessed pushers on the case flanks for calendar adjustments. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades between $9,000 and $13,000 depending on the presence of the original box and papers. A notable production detail is the use of a stepped "double pomme" bezel, a hallmark of the Villeret design language.
