Cal. FP 1153 (also known as F. Piguet 11.53 and Blancpain 1153) is an ultra-thin automatic movement produced by Frédéric Piguet. It is closely related to Cal. FP 1150, which adds a date complication.

The Blancpain Cal. 1153 lists 28 jewels and lacks the silicon hairspring found in other related Blancpain movements.
