Inspired by historical Minerva classic wristwatches from the 1940s and 1950s, the Montblanc Heritage product line combines the elegance of watchmaking’s past with today’s bold design codes and technology. The Montblanc Heritage Automatic Chronograph features a domed, burnt caramel-coloured dial with two different finishes, giving the timepiece an elegant and sophisticated aesthetic. A closer look at the minutes chronograph counter at three o’clock reveals an indicator for 3, 6 and 9 minutes — a vintage touch from the days when we used coin-operated telephones and needed to track the length and cost of a call. This 41 mm timepiece comes in a stainless steel case with curved horns, a domed sapphire glass box and the Minerva Manufacture embossing on the case back.
