Montblanc, inspired by the Minerva classic wristwatch, the icon of the 1940s and 50s, and the new generation 'neo-dandy' style, added three new models to its Heritage collection, combining vintage aesthetics with elegant complications.
The Heritage models, designed to respect Minerva watches, blend the elegance of watchmaking with today's bold designs. The new models come with polished 40 and 42mm cases featuring faceted and curved lugs, as well as raised sapphire crystals.
Montblanc Heritage Manufacture Pulsograph Limited Edition 100 (Ref. 126095)
The Montblanc Heritage Manufacture Pulsograph, limited to only 100 pieces, is available with a 40mm, polished 18K rose gold case. The case is equipped with a curved and raised scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with double AR coating on the front and is water-resistant to 50 meters. The movement is enjoyed through the sapphire crystal display case back. The pusher for the Monopusher chronograph function is located at 2 o’clock position.
The refined tobacco color dial is home to several classic design elements from the 1940s and 50s. The dial, decorated with a 'Grainé' watch ring and sunbeam pattern, is completed with 18K rose gold-plated, glowing big numbers, markers, dauphine-style hour and minute hands, baton-style seconds hand and chronograph displays.
The model works with the hand-wound movement, Caliber MB M13.21, and provides an average of 55 hours of power reserve when fully wound.
Montblanc Heritage Manufacture Pulsograph Limited Edition 100 is finished with a brown alligator strap and an 18K rose gold buckle, painted with the 'sfumato' technique.
Montblanc Heritage Monopusher Chronograph (Ref. 126078)
Unlike other models in this collection, Montblanc Heritage Monopusher Chronograph meets watch lovers with a 42mm stainless steel case. The case, where glossy and matte surfaces are used together, resists water pressure up to 50 meters. On the front is the sapphire crystal, which has the same features as other models. The one-button chronograph feature is integrated with the winding crown.
The automatic movement, Caliber MB 25.12, offering an average 48-hour power reserve when fully wound, powers the model.
On the watch's salmon-colored vivid dial, large rhodium-plated figures and markers display the time. Other notable features of the dial include the blue 'rack minuterie', the black rhodium-plated, shining dauphine-style hour and minute hand, the bluish baton-style seconds, and chronograph indicators for contrast.
A 'sfumato' gray alligator strap and stainless steel buckle complement the Montblanc Heritage Monopusher Chronograph.
Montblanc Heritage Automatic (Ref. 126464)
Montblanc Heritage Automatic is available in a polished 18K yellow gold case with a diameter of 40mm. On the front is the sapphire crystal, which has the same features as other models. The case shows resistance to water pressure up to 50 meters.
The British racing green dial of the model attracts attention with its Super-LumiNova filled, 18K yellow gold plated, curved, Dauphine style hands, large figures, and markers. The lacquer applied dial provides a very different look with all these gold details.
Like all other Montblanc Heritage Automatic models, this model works with the automatic movement, Caliber MB 24.27, and provides an average of 42 hours of power reserve in full installation.
A green alligator strap painted with the 'sfumato' technique and an 18K yellow gold buckle complements the model.
