The artistry of Blancpain design: exploring the Leman GMT Alarm!

Dear All:

I had the pleasure to meet well known watch (and other) photography artist Ming Thein during a recent business trip to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Ming is an ardent photographer, well respected within the watch collector's scene, who alos writes for several professional photographic periodicals. He hosts a website:

I hope you enjoy this series, which demonstrates how much emphasis Blancpain put on finsihing the design elements. Have a great week!

Magnus
