Blancpain and Vladimir Putin

Whether it's international summits or the signing of a treaty linking the Crimea to Russia, never without my Blancpain Aqua Lung.
But you can imagine that the collection of the President of the Russian Federation is not limited to this "small" piece. He owns other Blancpains, such as a Léman Flyback. But this dear former KGB officer has a special attraction for certain Patek Philippe references. You are not at the end of your surprises.
Whether he is still attending international meetings, or putting on his wetsuit for a rafting demonstration, a Patek perpetual calendar sometimes appears on his wrist. Rafting with a Patek, check it off on my "Lifetime to-do list". These are references 5140, or 5039. By the way, he would have the reference 5140 in yellow gold as well as in white gold. To match it according to his hot moods on the West side of the Federation, or cool as a North-Siberian morning. Breguet Marine on the wrist, with his suit or on weekend visit of Russian Federation. One of the masterpieces of his collection would be a Tourbograph "For Merit" from the A manufacture. Lange & Söhne. Tourbillon, rocket-chain transmission, split-seconds chronograph. Enough to captivate Vladimir's attention when he gets bored during his meetings at the Duma.
