Montblanc: Heritage Chronograph Quantième Annuel
This year, Montblanc added a chronograph with an annual calendar to its Heritage Chronométrie collection, with designs inspired by the 1948-era Pythagore timepieces created by the storied Minerva manufacture in Villeret, Switzerland (now known as Montblanc Manufacture). The aesthetic is drawn from one of the first chronograph wristwatches created by Minerva in the 1920s. All chronograph-related hands are in blued steel while the hands for the hours, minutes, seconds, and calendar functions are in plated rose gold. Each subdial also serves a dual purpose for the calendar indications: The days of the week are displayed at 6, the date at 12, and the months at 9. Finally, a moon-phase complication rests at the 3 subdial. Powered by Montblanc’s automatic Caliber MB 25.09 with 42-hour power reserve, the 42mm timepiece is available in steel and gold. [$10,370-$20,630]
