Montblanc’s 1858 collection is an homage to the spirit of exploration and the precision, legibility and robustness of Minerva watches of the 1920s and ‘30s, which were first conceived for military use. This automatic timepiece captures the trend of returning to nature with the Mont Blanc mountain engraved on the case back – the famous peak that inspired the Maison – along with compass and ice pick-axe detailing. Consider them as explorative accents that only make the navy dial and luminescent cathedral-shaped hands all the more striking.
