When a brand drops a set of updates like this, it is rarely about just one watch. With Montblanc<\/a>\u2019s start to 2026, the focus is more on variety. The Rieussec<\/a> brings in a historical link, while pieces like the Iced Sea<\/a> focus more on materials and colour, including a brighter coral dial. There are also limited editions available, along with various complications and a range of case sizes to suit different wrist sizes. From the sportier Iced Sea and 1858 models<\/a> to the more classic Star Legacy<\/a> and Rieussec watches, everything here builds on familiar collections, just with a few tweaks along the way, giving each collection a slightly different character in this early look at the 2026 collection of Montblanc watches.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC STAR LEGACY NICOLAS RIEUSSEC CHRONOGRAPH LIMITED EDITION 821<\/p>\n

Based on Nicolas Rieussec\u2019s 1821 inking chronograph<\/a>, the Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Limited Edition 821 keeps Montblanc\u2019s rotating-disc display, paired with dual time, date, and a monopusher system. The 43mm steel case features stepped lugs, a satin-finished bezel, and an onion crown, and has a noticeable presence on the wrist without feeling too large. Its brown dial features a horse racing motif with a beige sfumato finish, giving it a softer appearance, and the chronograph counters are positioned at 8 and 4 o\u2019clock. The watch comes on a brown leather strap with a Paris map pattern on the lining.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC 1858 SMALL SECOND 0 OXYGEN<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC ICED SEA AUTOMATIC DATE 0 OXYGEN<\/p>\n

The Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen comes with a grey sfumato glacier dial, and you can immediately see the textured surface that has become a signature of the collection. Even with its glacier pattern running across the watch face, the markers and hands remain easy to read against it. The 41mm case<\/a> shows a distressed finish, created by coating the steel and then brushing it with a hard mineral, and is topped with a steel unidirectional bezel with a black ceramic insert. You can pair the watch with a matching distressed stainless steel bracelet.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC ICED SEA AUTOMATIC DATE 0 OXYGEN LIMITED EDITION 300<\/p>\n

The Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 300 comes in a compact 38mm case<\/a>, while keeping the same glacier-inspired dial design of the lineup. Here, the coral dial adds a brighter look and that colour continues onto the bezel, with a darker red used for the first 15 minutes. The case itself mixes brushed and polished surfaces, with clean edges and gently curved lugs that help keep the overall fit easy and natural. You can pair this compact diver either with a coral red-coloured rubber strap or a stainless steel bracelet.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC ICED SEA AUTOMATIC DATE 0 OXYGEN LIMITED EDITION 700<\/p>\n

The Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 700 stands out for its dial, made from subfossil wood and set in resin, so each piece comes out slightly different. Broken down into small fragments and spread across the dial, the wood is placed under a clear resin, all of which gives it a textured look. Its 41mm steel case<\/a> is paired with a steel unidirectional rotatable bezel with a brown ceramic insert that matches the dial well. The watch is available on a stainless steel bracelet and is a limited edition of 700 pieces.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC STAR LEGACY MOONPHASE 42MM<\/p>\n

The Star Legacy Moonphase 42mm sits on the more classical side of Montblanc\u2019s lineup, with a clean, dress-oriented look. Here, you get an anthracite sfumato dial, finished with the brand\u2019s exploding star guilloch\u00e9 pattern. Time is shown centrally, while down at 6 o\u2019clock, you will find the moonphase paired with a pointer date. The moonphase disc shows a deep blue night sky, and the date is tracked by a crescent-tipped hand around the sub-dial. Keeping the collection\u2019s pebble-shaped profile and stepped lugs, the 42mm stainless steel case comes on an anthracite calf leather strap.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC STAR LEGACY CHRONOGRAPH 42MM<\/p>\n

With the Star Legacy Chronograph 42mm, Montblanc has focused on timekeeping clarity, with a chronograph laid out in a clean two-register format. An anthracite sfumato dial with the exploding star guilloch\u00e9 pattern sets the tone, with sub-dials at 3 and 9 o\u2019clock and a date at 6, keeping the layout balanced. Different hand shapes help separate the functions, while a precise minute track runs around the edge. All of this sits inside a 42mm steel case with the familiar pebble-shaped profile and stepped lugs, paired with an anthracite calf leather strap.<\/p>\n

MONTBLANC STAR LEGACY SMALL SECOND<\/p>\n

The Star Legacy Small Second keeps things clean, but there is a bit more going on once you notice the details. At 6 o\u2019clock, the small seconds sits inside a sub-dial framed by 30 diamonds, adding a decorative touch without taking away the dial\u2019s clarity. The anthracite sfumato dial shows the exploding star guilloch\u00e9 pattern across the surface, coupled with Arabic numerals and leaf hands. You also see a stainless steel crown, topped with a mother-of-pearl Montblanc emblem. A polished 36mm steel case with stepped lugs rounds things off, worn on a black calf leather strap.<\/p>\n
