Bianchet

Bianchet is an independent Swiss tourbillon manufacture headquartered in Neuchatel. The brand's positioning is deliberately narrow: every caliber it ships is a tourbillon, developed and assembled entirely in-house, with hours of hand-bevelling and hand-finishing performed at the manufacture rather than outsourced. Form-first design language, engineered performance underneath.

The visual signature is the UltraFino Tonneau, a barrel-shaped case in the low-8mm thickness range that opened Bianchet's calling card of ultra-thin tourbillons. That collection was joined by the UltraFino Rotondo, a round-cased sibling for buyers who want the same movement architecture in a more conventional silhouette, and the B1.618 Sport GMT | Grande Date, a sportier reference with GMT and a large date module.

Bianchet has also produced two named collaborations that gave the brand mainstream exposure: the UltraFino Maserati "100 Years of Trident" and the UltraFino Monaco (E1 Series), tied to the Monaco E-Prix. Both remained tourbillon references consistent with the manufacture's positioning.
