<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs the collection’s most historically rooted piece, the Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph draws on Nicolas Rieussec’s 1821 inkwell chronograph concept, where inked nibs recorded elapsed time on a rotating disk and helped define the chronograph idea. The wristwatch continues that mechanical logic, using two rotating arc timing disks for 60 seconds and 30 minutes, with a fixed bridge used for reading the elapsed time instead of a central chronograph hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The watch comes in a 43 millimeter stainless steel case with a monopusher chronograph at the 8 o’clock position, powered by Montblanc’s in-house MB R200 movement. The caliber uses a column wheel with vertical clutch and twin barrels for roughly 72 hours of power reserve. Functions include a second time zone, day-night indicator, and date, with an independently adjustable second time zone hand. The dial features a Paris racetrack motif with a beige fum\u00e9 effect, and the strap lining carries a map of Paris dated 1821, extending the historical reference. Suggested retail price is approximately US$9,430.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 1858 Small Second 0 Oxygen prioritizes durability and practicality. In a 38 millimeter stainless steel case with a 11.7 millimeter thickness, the balanced proportions suit everyday wear. The zero oxygen construction replaces the case interior air with nitrogen to reduce condensation and temperature effects, improving movement stability for outdoor and extreme conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The black lacquer dial pairs luminous Arabic numerals with cathedral hands, small seconds at 6 o’clock, and a beveled date window at 3 o’clock. A fixed bezel includes a black ceramic insert with luminous compass points to reinforce its exploration focus. Inside is the MB 24.16 automatic movement based on the SW200, running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with about 38 hours of power reserve. The watch is offered on a stainless steel bracelet or Saffiano leather strap. Suggested retail price is approximately US$4,110.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Iced Sea Automatic Date 0 Oxygen emphasizes professional dive capability and material finishing. Its 41 millimeter stainless steel case is given a black coating and then brushed with a quartz stone technique to create a naturally worn, layered appearance that adds visual depth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The gray glacier-pattern dial is produced using the gratt\u00e9-bois\u00e9 technique through more than 30 distinct steps to create a layered, three dimensional ice texture, while hands and indices remain highly legible. A unidirectional ceramic bezel has 120 markers, with the 0 to 15 minute sector laser treated for enhanced visibility. The watch is water resistant to 300 meters, uses a screw down crown, and the zero oxygen case construction. It is powered by the MB 24.17 automatic movement with about 38 hours of power reserve. Suggested retail price is approximately US$4,110.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Limited Edition 300 emphasizes color, inspired by the warm tones that glaciers reflect at sunrise and sunset. A coral colored glacier dial shows layered color shifts under light, produced with the same gratt\u00e9-bois\u00e9 craft to deepen the texture and three dimensional effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This version is in a more compact 38 millimeter stainless steel case and features a two tone anodized aluminum bezel with the 0 to 15 minute segment highlighted in deep red for improved functional recognition. It meets ISO 6425 dive watch standards, offers 300 meter water resistance, and uses the zero oxygen construction. Powered by the MB 24.17 automatic movement with about 38 hours of reserve, it includes a quick change system for a stainless steel bracelet or rubber strap. Limited to 300 pieces, suggested retail price is approximately US$4,620.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Limited Edition 700 focuses on material innovation: the dial uses fragments of subfossil wood deposited by glacial action, embedded in clear resin and frozen treated to mimic ice layer textures. Every dial is unique, reflecting the natural variation of the materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The watch is a 41 millimeter stainless steel case with a brown ceramic bezel, 120 scale markers, and a laser treated timing sector to aid dive timing. It is water resistant to 300 meters, uses a screw down crown, and the zero oxygen case construction. Powered by the MB 24.17 automatic movement with about 38 hours of reserve, it is limited to 700 pieces, a figure that references the length of polar ice sheets. Suggested retail price is approximately US$6,050.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Star Legacy line adds three dress oriented models that continue the collection’s classical aesthetic. All dials use a radiating six point star roped guilloche inspired by Montblanc’s signature white star emblem, revealing delicate depth as light moves across the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Moonphase 42 millimeter is a classic dress watch with rounded lines and stepped lugs. The dial integrates the six point star roped guilloche, with a combined moonphase and pointer date at 6 o’clock. The moonphase disc displays a deep blue sky with stars and a moon motif while the date is shown by a crescent shaped pointer. It uses the MB 24.31 automatic movement at 28,800 vibrations per hour with about 42 hours of power reserve. Suggested retail price is approximately US$5,340.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Chronograph 42 millimeter uses a conventional twin pusher chronograph with a bi compax layout, 30 minute timer at 3 o’clock, small seconds at 9 o’clock, and a date at 6 o’clock for a symmetrical dial. The same six point star roped guilloche is applied, with differing hand shapes used to distinguish time and chronograph indications for clarity. The movement is the MB 25.13 automatic chronograph at 28,800 vibrations per hour with about 48 hours of power reserve. Suggested retail price is approximately US$5,850.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Small Second 36 millimeter favors proportion and detail. In a 36 millimeter stainless steel case with a 10.75 millimeter thickness it wears light. The dial uses the six point star roped guilloche and a small seconds at 6 o’clock set with 30 diamonds totaling about 0.06 carats, for discreet refinement. Rhodium plated Arabic numerals and leaf shaped hands sit against a minute track that keeps legibility. It uses the MB 24.16 automatic movement at 28,800 vibrations per hour with about 38 hours of reserve, and features a mother of pearl Montblanc emblem on the crown. Suggested retail price is approximately US$4,420.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall, the Montblanc 2026 watches collection is not positioned as a dramatic stylistic shift, but as a deepening of movement technology, materials, and historical references to sharpen the positioning between sport, everyday, and dress models. The result is a more complete family structure, with clearer choices across performance, design, and heritage driven chronograph making.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Montblanc 2026 watches debut with eight new models across Star Legacy, 1858, Iced Sea and Nicolas Rieussec, prices from approximately US$4,110.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":947409,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5116],"tags":[30669,17723,925,25870,12323,926,508,15011,14116,929,893],"class_list":{"0":"post-947488","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-watches-en-2","8":"tag-30669","9":"tag-17723","10":"tag-chronograph","11":"tag-collection","12":"tag-edition","13":"tag-luxury","14":"tag-montblanc","15":"tag-star","16":"tag-watch","17":"tag-watches","18":"tag-watchmaking"},"raw_content":"\n Montblanc 2026 watches were unveiled as a broad collection that adds eight new models across Star Legacy, 1858, Iced Sea, and the Nicolas Rieussec chronograph line, aiming to sharpen the brand's product architecture by size, materials, and intended use for dress, everyday, and sport wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new Montblanc 2026 watches emphasize clearer roles for each collection: Iced Sea and 1858 focus on functionality and outdoor performance, Star Legacy centers on classic dress design, and the Nicolas Rieussec chronographs marry historical reference with more complex functions to form the backbone of the launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the collection's most historically rooted piece, the Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph draws on Nicolas Rieussec's 1821 inkwell chronograph concept, where inked nibs recorded elapsed time on a rotating disk and helped define the chronograph idea.
