Montblanc

Since 2014, Montblanc adopted a new slogan and philosophy “Sharing the Passion for Fine Watchmaking”. With that came a few key changes from my observation. Firstly, Montblanc went back to the classics and produced a successful new line called the Heritage...  

Robin, Thanks for the report about Montblanc Heritage Chronometrie Collection. In fact, it looks like more parts in a series are planned. I have a question about the Heritage Chronometrie Ultra Slim. How do they ascertain its chronometry if there is no se... 

There is no mention in the official literature of a chronometer rating for any of the new Chronometrie Collection. Its a matter of semantics, chronometry vs chronometer, with the former referring to "the science of the precise measurement of time" accordi...

With inspirations drawn from Minerva\'s pursuit of precision But Montblanc didn\'t say any of these models under this new line is a certified chronometer, inc the new Heritage Chronometrie Ultra Slim. They do go thru the 500 hour tests which I will detail... 

Chronometers and no chronometers in the same family, then. Best, Nicolas
