Blancpain Erotic Minute Repeater
Saw this one in the metal. Hope this is appropriate.
Watch has a very nice feel. It is not oversized, but very proportional dress watch. I think 38mm or 40mm. Not super thick, which is a big plus. Rose Gold. Dial is very elegant. The chiming is not the loudest I've heard (the JLC wins that honor) but it is reasonable. Tone is very nice. In the "nits" defpartment, I would have expected this watch would have a deployant clasp at this price rather than a basic pin buckle.
The back of the watch, of course, is where Blancpain goes full tilt.. The background is enamel and quite well done. The sand has a realistic texture to it.
In the foreground, we have the automatons who move when the repeater is chiming. I have a video of this happening but I wasn't sure if it would be appropriate to post here.
The gold automatons are very detailed as you can see here.
Note the tatoos on the automatons.
Each one of these watches is a piece unique. If you want one, you can chose from a set of artist drawings that have already been created or design your own. If you chose one of the premade designs, they retire the drawing so only 1 is made. If you chose to design your own, you can provide photos of people and situations and they will have an artist create a drawing. Seems like having a custom one made would be a fun and interesting process (maybe kind of embarrassing depending on your taste).
Cost of this watch is about $260k

Erotic watches are welcome here. There are only few brands which made or which are still making them. Blancpain is one of the, Ulysse Nardin, too.
As for the Minute Repeater, you are sadly right. The regulator is too noisy and the chime too low...
Showed pics to my Muse / wife...
She giggled a bit and then asked if it, you know, moves. Yes, with a nice rhythm, I said. She giggled more. Hmmmmm....................
ROFL. Oh sooo... sooooooo very wrong my friend.
C'mon, everyone knows I'm a geek. Code this, tweak that... sure I can Photoshop that up.... Am also the luckiest, luckiest man ever, because she's... perfect! Trust me,it ain't me. It's all her (❤️´｀❤️)
So, you could have Tom Brady with Angela Merkel?
Or Boris Johnson and a My Little Pony? A Porsche and a Ford truck? Huh. In other news, having a pin buckle is common even on very high end watches. Roger W Smith, Philippe Dufour, Kari Voutilainen (who had a deployant option but has since stopped making i...
Not to get too gory....
Er, how should I say this? Has anyone else noticed that the act the automatons are performing is not one intended to further the species.?
I doubt I will ever see such a watch in the metal
They are few and far between, but for a good reason imo 😂 Nevertheless, thanks for sharing this one!
