Baselworld 2012: A gorgeous perpetual calendar that Breitling has introduced for 2012, the Breitling Transocean QP.  This is not the type of watch most people associate with Breitling, is it?  But believe it or not they do offer some high complications!  I’m not sure if the movements for such pieces are developed in-house or not, that’s something I’d like to know a bit more about.  But no matter for now, let’s just appreciate this beautiful perpetual calendar (“QP” stands for just that, in French:  “quantième perpétuel“), cased in rose gold.   This timepiece is available in two 25-piece limited series, one with a black dial (pictured) and the other with a silver dial.
