Шаблон:Infobox company Bianchet is a Swiss luxury watchmaking company known for creating tonneau-shaped skeleton tourbillon watches.[1]

Overview

Bianchet was founded in 2017 by Rodolfo Festa Bianchet and Emmanuelle Festa Bianchet. Rodolfo was a successful entrepreneur in the Fintech sector, while Emmanuelle Festa Bianchet is a journalist and artist.[1]

Bianchet is the first watchmaking company to have developed its entire watch movement architecture and watch cases using the golden ratio of 1.618 and the Fibonacci sequence as a design basis. It is also the first company to have developed a tonneau-shaped watch in carbon capable of resisting a pressure of 10ATM or 100 meters of water depth, for which the company uses a proprietary high-density carbon composite infused with titanium dust.[1][2]

After founding the company in 2017, Bianchet presented its prototype at Baselworld. Two years later, the company released its first watch, Tourbillon B 1.618, at the Geneva Watch Days.[3][4][5] The same year, Bianchet opened its first showroom in Neuchatel, Switzerland. In 2022, Bianchet presented the Tourbillon B 1.618 new limited editions at the "Geneva Watch Days." As of 2023, Bianchet is available in 17 countries.[6]

Bianchet won a Swiss Watch award in October 2023 as its Flying Tourbillon Grande Date has been named the Best Start-Up Watch at the Temporis International Awards in Zurich.[7][8][9][10] The watch was selected by a jury of industry experts from across the world, including notable watchmakers Philippe Dufour, Kari Voutillainen, and Romain Gaultier, along with specialist journalists, retailers, and influencers.[11][12][13][14][15]

Sponsorships and partners

In June 2022, Bianchet became the first official watch and timing partner of the Polo Rider Cup in Chantilly. Bianchet continued to be the official watch and timing partner in 2023.[16]

In 2022, Bianchet became a business partner with Big Blue Ocean. Both organizations contribute to cleaning oceans, protecting vulnerable marine animals, and providing free educational resources. In 2023, Bianchet signed several public figures as its brand ambassadors, including tennis player Grigor Dimitrov, big wave surfer Francisco Porcella, and racing driver Stefano Costantini.[17][18]
