Watch Description
Inspired by historical Minerva classic wristwatches from the 1940s and 1950s, the Heritage product line combines the elegance of watchmaking's past with today’s bold design codes and technology. The Montblanc Heritage Monopusher Chronograph features the latest chronograph design within the Montblanc product line with a domed, salmon-colored dial featuring two different finishes, giving the timepiece an elegant and sophisticated aesthetic. A closer look at the minutes chronograph counter at 3 o’clock reveals an indicator for 3, 6 and 9 minutes—a vintage touch from the days of coin-operated telephones and the need to track the length and cost of a call. This 42 mm timepiece comes in a fully polished stainless steel case with curved horns, a domed sapphire glass box and the Minerva Manufacture embossing on the case back.
