In the advertisement it is even stated that it would never produce digital display watches as well.

Being an owned ancillary of the Swatch Group, Blancpain manufactures only circular shaped watches and it is the standard by which the art of traditional watchmaking is judged. Blancpain designs, distributes, manufactures as well as sells luxury watches.
