However, aficionados know that Montblanc is a multi-category luxury brand from writing instruments (starting 1906 in Berlin, Germany), to fine leather goods (as early as 1924 but cemented by setting up operation in Italy), to highly respected timepieces (from 1997 in the watchmaking centre of Le Locle, Switzerland). The brand’s horological chops were deepened by its 2006 acquisition of Minerva, a heritage titan of watchmaking from 1858 (famous for its chronographs, pilot’s watches and timing instruments). The watch we have here was Montblanc’s first-ever rectangular watch. A striking, sculptural, architectural piece with an elegant juxtaposition of angular lines and sweeping curves intersecting in fresh and surprising ways (check out that side profile!). It’s an under-appreciated gem, which makes us love it more, especially given the incredible value it brings. A lovely piece that’s elegant yet bold, curvaceous yet geometrical, sporty yet dressy. A fine pick for those who understand versatility and quiet luxury!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e9.5\/10, without much signs of use, just a few hairlines, no nicks\/dents.
