The Air Command collection
Inspired by the Legend
Combining a resolutely vintage style with Blancpain's latest technical advances, the Air Command collection revives the history linking the Maison to 1950s military aviation.
In keeping with their forerunner, renowned as the most sought-after military chronograph of its time, the Air Command models are distinguished by their sophisticated design and offer two separate timekeeping features: a flyback chronograph function, and a countdown bezel.

The Air Command collection Inspired by the Legend Combining a resolutely vintage style with Blancpain's latest technical advances, the Air Command collection revives the history linking the Maison to 1950s military aviation. In keeping with their forerunner, renowned as the most sought-after military chronograph of its time, the Air Command models are distinguished by their sophisticated design and offer two separate timekeeping features: a flyback chronograph function, and a countdown bezel.
Thanks to the constant innovation and complete control over the manufacturing process, Blancpain has absolute freedom of creation. In-house design and manufacturing of a significant part of the components and tools; manual assembly of each movement by a single watchmaker; fully handcrafted refined finishes, even down to the last detail: the strength of the Manufacture lies in their capacity to create timepieces that are at once innovative and respectful of the Swiss watchmaking tradition.
This philosophy is reflected in each of Blancpain's models, from the classic Villeret pieces, to the emblematic Fifty Fathoms diving watches, the elegant Ladybird collection and the exceptional Métiers d'Art watches.
