Who has not yet realized that Montblanc’s strategic upscale move towards high-end watchmaking and extending all the way up to Haute Horlogerie has led to the development of an extensive movement portfolio comprising 24 calibers? Expertly leveraging the combined know-how of its two Manufactures (one in Le Locle and the Minerva one in Villeret), Montblanc notably draws inspiration from a 1920s Minerva model to strengthen its Heritage Chronométrie collection with an Annual Calendar Chronograph. This new model is distinguished by excellent legibility combined with an original display of various indications – starting with the aesthetic sophistication of the lunar cycle symbolized by its four main phases depicted in red gold and swept over by a gold hand. The blued hands on the other counters provide the chronograph indications, while red gold-plated hands point to the hours, minutes, seconds and date functions. Like all models in the Heritage Chronométrie line, this elegant polished pink gold chronograph featuring an exclusive display and an excellent quality-price ratio has undergone 500 hours of testing in the Montblanc Laboratory, a guarantee of reliability.
