Revealing the intricacies of the calendar function, the fully skeletonized Big Date complication of the Flying Tourbillon Grande Date B 1.618 movement displays the date in a format that is both easy to read and aesthetically minimalist. A simple colour accent on the aperture identifies the current date, without detracting from the mechanical subtlety of the two discs that rotate in time with the days. Bianchet adapted the big date complication, invented by Lange & Sohne in 1994, in a contemporary and essential style, revealing its mechanical ingenuity.

Two suspended flanges supporting Superluminova blocks, which recall the hour indicators made in the same high-tech material, are placed symmetrically on both sides of the openwork dial. Already present in the Bianchet Tourbillon B1.618 Openwork model, they give the movement a distinctive touch while playing with light, depth, and transparency to create modern and sculptural architecture.

Entirely made in Switzerland and assembled in the Bianchet workshop in La-Chaux-De-Fonds, the calibre of the Flying Tourbillon Grande Date B1.618 is ennobled by hand finishing, which sublimates the beauty of its components. Particularly difficult to achieve on titanium, hand-bevelling, which is guided by the craftsman's hand, gives life to the contours of the bridges, reveals the shapes, and adds sparkle to the winding parts.
