<\/a><\/p>\nMontblanc\u2019s Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen features a 41mm distressed steel case with 300 meters of water resistance.<\/p>\n
The gray sfumato glacier-pattern dial, whose textured base is created using a gratt\u00e9-bois\u00e9 technique requiring more than 30 steps and around four times the work of a standard dial.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen is not the most mechanically ambitious watch in the new lineup, but it is the one that best captures what Montblanc is building today: a recognizable, contemporary sports watch with a distinct design language and a technical signature of its own. Housed in a 41mm distressed steel case with 300 meters of water resistance, the watch takes its character not only from its specifications, but also from the amount of work invested in its surfaces.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The stainless steel case and bracelet are first treated with a black coating, then distressed through a process of washing and brushing with quartzite sourced from the Mont Blanc massif, giving the metal a darker, weathered finish that feels more elemental than decorative. That same attention carries through to the gray sfumato glacier-pattern dial, whose textured base is created using a gratt\u00e9-bois\u00e9 technique requiring more than 30 steps and around four times the work of a standard dial, resulting in a layered surface that evokes the depth and crystalline structure of glacial ice. Framing it is a black ceramic bezel with a laser-lowered section from 0 to 15 minutes, adding a distinct texture to the most critical part of the dive scale while reinforcing the watch\u2019s instrument-like feel.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n By removing oxygen from the case and replacing it with nitrogen before sealing, it reduces the risk of condensation when the watch is subjected to sharp fluctuations in temperature and atmospheric pressure.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Power comes from the MB 24.17, an automatic caliber based on the Sellita SW200, with a 38-hour power reserve. It\u2019s a straightforward and robust proposition rather than a category disruptor. But as a product statement, it feels coherent and specific among the new releases.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n It reinforces 0 Oxygen as Montblanc\u2019s clearest modern watchmaking signature. By removing oxygen from the case and replacing it with nitrogen before sealing, it reduces the risk of condensation when the watch is subjected to sharp fluctuations in temperature and atmospheric pressure. That claim has now moved well beyond a one-off talking point, as it is even supported by dedicated upgrade services for owners of previous Iced Sea and Geosphere models.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Tech Specs<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.17 (Sellita SW200 base); 38-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, central seconds; date<\/p>\n Case 41mm \u00d7 12.9mm; distressed steel with 0 oxygen; unidirectional steel bezel with black ceramic insert, featuring Super-LumiNova with blue emission on the dot, laser-lowered from 0\u201315 minutes; water resistant to 300m<\/p>\n Dial Gray sfumato glacier pattern; rhodium-coated Arabic numerals with white Super-LumiNova coating<\/p>\n Strap Interchangeable distressed steel bracelet with fine adjustment<\/p>\n Price EUR 5,300<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 300 and Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 700<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 300, issued in 300 pieces.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The wider Iced Sea rollout also includes a more atmospheric variation on the theme in the form of the Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 300, issued in 300 pieces. Presented in an existing 38mm format, it looks to the colors glaciers can reflect at dawn and dusk during the warmer seasons, translating that mood into a coral glacier-pattern dial created using Montblanc\u2019s gratt\u00e9-bois\u00e9 technique. The effect continues through the dual-color aluminum bezel insert, which pairs coral and red, while the watch retains the same underlying proposition of 300 meters of water resistance, the MB 24.17 automatic caliber, ISO 6425 diving-watch certification and a case sealed with zero oxygen.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 700, limited to 700 pieces.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n A more conceptually interesting take on the Iced Sea comes in the form of the Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 700, limited to 700 pieces. Drawing on the geology of the Mer de Glace, Montblanc builds the dial around shavings of subfossil wood sourced from the glacier\u2019s moraine, material preserved over centuries as the glacier formed, shifted and receded. These fragments are carefully arranged across the dial before being sealed beneath a transparent resin layer, whose surface is then given a frozen finish to evoke the striated crystalline texture of ice. The result is a dial that feels especially layered, both visually and narratively, framed by a brown ceramic bezel. Underneath, it remains mechanically consistent with the core Iced Sea proposition, again using the MB 24.17 with 38 hours of power reserve.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Tech Specs<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 300<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.17 (Sellita SW200 base); 38-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, central seconds; date<\/p>\n Case 38mm \u00d7 12.3mm; stainless steel with 0 oxygen; unidirectional steel bezel with bi-colored coral anodized aluminum insert, featuring Super-LumiNova with blue emission on the dot; water resistant to 300m<\/p>\n Dial Coral glacier pattern; rhodium-coated Arabic numerals with white Super-LumiNova coating<\/p>\n Strap Interchangeable stainless steel bracelet with double folding clasp and fine adjustment; additional coral red rubber<\/p>\n Price EUR 4,500<\/p>\n Availability Limited edition of 300 pieces<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen Limited Edition 700<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.17 (Sellita SW200 base); 38-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, central seconds; date<\/p>\n Case 41mm \u00d7 12.9mm; stainless steel with 0 oxygen; unidirectional steel bezel with brown ceramic insert, featuring Super-LumiNova with blue emission on the dot, laser-lowered from 0\u201315 minutes; water resistant to 300m<\/p>\n Dial Subfossil wood from the Mer de Glace encapsulated in \u201cfrozen\u201d resin; rhodium-coated Arabic numerals with white Super-LumiNova coating<\/p>\n Strap Interchangeable stainless steel bracelet with fine adjustment<\/p>\n Price EUR 5,900<\/p>\n Availability Limited edition of 700 pieces<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc 1858 Small Second 0 Oxygen and 1858 Geosphere 0 Oxygen Mount Elbrouz Limited Edition 829<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The 1858 Small Seconds 0 Oxygen marks the first time the compact 38mm specification has been brought to the Small Seconds model.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Within the 1858 lineup, the notable developments include the arrival of the 1858 Small Seconds 0 Oxygen in a compact 38mm case. While 0 Oxygen is already familiar within the broader 1858 collection, this marks the first time the specification has been brought to the Small Seconds model, giving one of Montblanc\u2019s more classically proportioned field-watch expressions with its signature technical edge. The watch retains the collection\u2019s vintage expedition look, from cathedral hands and a black lacquered dial to the railroad minute track and fixed bezel with a black ceramic insert marked by luminescent cardinal points. Inside is the automatic MB 24.16 with a 38-hour power reserve, while a steel bracelet and blue-black saffiano calf leather strap offer two slightly different forms of wear.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Its 43.5mm case pairs titanium with a proprietary composite middle case incorporating volcanic ash, aluminized basalt fibers, calcium carbonate and a bio-sourced resin, creating a finish that evokes the snow, ice and volcanic terrain of Mount Elbrouz.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The 1858 Geosphere 0 Oxygen Mount Elbrouz Limited Edition 829 is the most fully developed expression of Montblanc\u2019s explorer narrative in this year\u2019s lineup. Limited to 829 pieces, the number refers to the year 1829, when the higher of Mount Elbrouz\u2019s twin peaks was first reached, and places the watch within the brand\u2019s ongoing Seven Summits storyline. Since 2018, the Geosphere has served as Montblanc\u2019s vehicle for watches tied to altitude, endurance and global exploration, with the Seven Summits offering an especially fitting framework. After the Mount Vinson edition of 2025, the focus now shifts to Europe\u2019s highest mountain, reinforcing the collection\u2019s mountaineering identity.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The watch itself carries that theme through both construction and complication. Its 43.5mm case pairs titanium with a proprietary composite middle case incorporating volcanic ash, aluminized basalt fibers, calcium carbonate and a bio-sourced resin, creating a finish that evokes the snow, ice and volcanic terrain of Mount Elbrouz. A zero-oxygen case underscores the high-altitude positioning, while the dial continues the alpine mood with a white-and-brown sfumato treatment over a glacier-pattern base. Power comes from the automatic MB 29.25, which drives Montblanc\u2019s Geosphere world-time display with its twin rotating hemispheres, 24-hour indication, second time zone and date.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Tech Specs<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 1858 Small Second 0 Oxygen<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.16; 38-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, small seconds; date<\/p>\n Case 38mm \u00d7 11.7mm; stainless steel with 0 oxygen; fixed bezel with black ceramic insert and white luminescent cardinal points with blue emission; water resistant to 100m<\/p>\n Dial Black lacquered; indexes coated with white Super-LumiNova<\/p>\n Strap Interchangeable stainless steel bracelet with fine adjustment; additional black-and-blue saffiano calf leather with stainless steel double folding clasp<\/p>\n Price EUR 4,000<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n 1858 Geosphere 0 Oxygen Mount Elbrouz Limited Edition 829<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 29.25; 42-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes; second time zone; world time with rotating Northern and Southern Hemisphere globes, 24-hour and day\/night indicators; date<\/p>\n Case 43.5mm \u00d7 13mm; titanium with composite middle containing captured CO2 and volcanic ash; bi-directional titanium bezel with light gray anodized aluminum insert and luminescent cardinal points with orange emission; water resistant to 100m<\/p>\n Dial White-brown sfumato glacier pattern; rhodium-coated luminescent Arabic numerals and hemisphere globes<\/p>\n Strap Light brown interchangeable rubber with rope pattern and double folding clasp; additional ivory rubber<\/p>\n Price EUR 10,100<\/p>\n Availability Limited edition of 829 pieces<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc Star Legacy Signatures <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Montblanc Star Legacy Moonphase 42mm pairs its anthracite dial with a moonphase and pointer-date display at 6 o\u2019clock.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Set against the outdoors-oriented group are the new Star Legacy models, which function less as the center of gravity than as a reminder that Montblanc still wants room for a more classical watchmaking expression. Following the introduction in 2025 of the anthracite-colored guilloch\u00e9 dial within the line, the brand now extends that treatment to three additional complications: a 36mm Small Second, a 42mm Moonphase and a 42mm Chronograph. All three feature the exploding-star guilloch\u00e9 motif based on the Montblanc emblem, housed in polished pebble-shaped steel cases with stepped lugs and onion crowns. They\u2019re also each fitted with a sapphire crystal caseback revealing the movement within, including an oscillating weight decorated with C\u00f4te de Gen\u00e8ve and the Montblanc emblem.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Montblanc Star Legacy Small Second 36mm offers the most jewelry-inflected expression of the trio, with its running seconds display at 6 o\u2019clock framed by 30 diamonds.<\/p>\n The Montblanc Star Legacy Chronograph 42mm adopts a balanced two-register layout with running seconds at 9 o\u2019clock and a 30-minute counter at 3.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Moonphase 42mm pairs its anthracite dial with a moonphase and pointer-date display at 6 o\u2019clock, while the Chronograph 42mm adopts a balanced two-register layout with running seconds at 9 o\u2019clock and a 30-minute counter at 3. The Small Second 36mm, meanwhile, offers the most jewelry-inflected expression of the trio, with its running seconds display at 6 o\u2019clock framed by 30 diamonds. Power comes from the MB 24.31 in the Moonphase with 42 hours of reserve, the MB 25.13 in the Chronograph with 48 hours, and the MB 24.16 in the Small Second with 38 hours.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Tech Specs<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Star Legacy Moonphase 42mm<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.31; 42-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, seconds; moonphase; pointer date<\/p>\n Case 42mm \u00d7 11.38mm; polished stainless steel; water resistant to 50m<\/p>\n Dial Anthracite sfumato with exploding-star guilloch\u00e9, blue moonphase display and pointer date at 6 o\u2019clock; rhodium-coated Roman numerals<\/p>\n Strap Anthracite calf leather with vertical sfumato effect; stainless steel pin buckle<\/p>\n Price EUR 5,200<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Star Legacy Chronograph 42mm<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 25.13; 48-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, small seconds; chronograph; date<\/p>\n Case 42mm \u00d7 14.29mm; polished stainless steel; water resistant to 50m<\/p>\n Dial Anthracite sfumato with exploding-star guilloch\u00e9 and Montblanc emblem in the center; rhodium-coated Roman numerals<\/p>\n Strap Anthracite calf leather with vertical sfumato effect; stainless steel pin buckle<\/p>\n Price\u00a0EUR 5,700<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Star Legacy Small Second 36mm<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Movement Self-winding Caliber MB 24.16; 38-hour power reserve<\/p>\n Functions Hours, minutes, small seconds<\/p>\n Case 36mm \u00d7 10.75mm; polished stainless steel; water resistant to 30m<\/p>\n Dial Anthracite sfumato with exploding-star guilloch\u00e9, and small seconds counter set with 30 diamonds; rhodium-coated Arabic numerals<\/p>\n Strap Black calf leather; stainless steel pin buckle<\/p>\n Price EUR 4,300<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Montblanc Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Limited Edition 821<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n If there is one watch in the launch that speaks most directly to a more serious horological audience, it is the Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Limited Edition 821, issued in 821 pieces in reference to the year Nicolas Rieussec first tested his inking chronograph at the horse races of the Champ-de-Mars in Paris. The watch takes that 1821 invention as both its historical and visual starting point: its rotating domed chronograph disks and horizontal bridge recreate the layout of Rieussec\u2019s original instrument, while the beige sfumato dial incorporates a horse-racing scene inspired by 19th-century Paris.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Montblanc Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Limited Edition 821, issued in 821 pieces in reference to the year Nicolas Rieussec first tested his inking chronograph at the horse races of the Champ-de-Mars in Paris.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
