In recent years, green has been loved by the brand watch enthusiasts. In the 2019 Geneva exhibition, green has become one of the hot colours. Montblanc also uses green as the main colour of the new 1858 series timepieces, using the mountain adventure spirit as a source of inspiration, khaki green, and bronze to create an amazing spark. The new Montblanc 1858 collection includes classic models, automatic chronographs and the Geosphere world-time watch. The overall model is finished with a green face against a bronze case. In order to meet the modern aesthetic, the strap uses a NATO woven strap. Let’s take the automatic chronograph as an example to enjoy this year’s new model of Montblanc 1858.
The name of the 1858 series comes from the years when Charles Ivan Roberts founded the watchmaking workshop. This series of models inspired by the Minerva professional military watch and the mountain adventure watch from the 1920s and 1930s. This year’s newly released 1858 timepiece features green as an element to echo nature. It is equipped with innovative and practical functions, which provides a good choice for enthusiastic adventurous people. The new model reinterprets the idea of going outdoors and returning to nature, which brings us different experiences and feelings in harmony with nature.
The bronze case is a favourite of many watch addicts. Due to the characteristics of bronze itself, the watch has a retro charm. The 2019 designer wristwatch of the Montblanc 1858 also expresses its style in the bronze case. The surface of the case is polished and satin-finished to reduce the effects of accidental scratches on the watch’s appearance.
The curved chamfer lugs are elegant and natural.
The bronze crown is engraved with a polished hexagonal star logo and is designed with non-slip texture to ensure the convenience of the adjusting time. Timing buttons are provided on both sides of the crown to control the timing device.
The colour of the khaki green gradually deepens from the centre to the outside, highlighting the gradual effect. The dial design follows the classic design of this collection, such as the cathedral-style hand of “Cymtech”, the beige Arabic numerals with Super-LumiNova® luminous coating, the classic rail-shaped minute scales and so on.
The two sub-dials are symmetrically distributed at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions.
The NATO woven strap, which complements the dial, comes from a traditional French weaving factory with a long history. The strap is sturdy and durable, and it is extremely comfortable to wear.
After 500 hours of simulated wearing, the watch has passed special tests under extreme conditions and is water resistant to 100 meters. It is equipped with an MB 25.11 self-winding movement with a flat ring and a flat spring with a power reserve of approximately 48 hours. The bronze-plated titanium metal back is specially engraved with the refined pattern to pay tribute to the mountain adventure spirit.
Summary: The new 2019 Montblanc 1858 timers are limited to 1858 pieces. It will surely win the favour of countless exquisite fashion people with its incredibly charming appearance.
