As part of its celebration of the 275th year since its founding, Blancpain is opening its second boutique in Shanghai. This is the 37th Blancpain’s boutique world-wide. The new Blancpain boutique at The Swatch Art Peace Hotel may be located in China’s most bustling and modern city, yet the rich wood tones of the walls and farm house windows of the display cases breathe Switzerland and, indeed, are inspired by the finishes of the workshops and watchmaker work benches found in Blancpain’s atelier in Le Brassus.
