Presenting an unworn example of the Montblanc 1858 Minerva Monopusher Chronograph P.05, a Special Edition of 30 pieces for Collective Horology.
Dial side we see a highly animated white lacquer dial with an inner Tachymeter scale and outer Telemeter scale in light blue font to perfectly compliment the namesake "Blue Arrow" of the solid white gold rotating bezel. At 6 o'clock is the Minerva stamp acknowledging the maker of the gorgeous Minerva Caliber 13.21 movement found on the reverse side. A single pusher at 2 o'clock allows the user to start, stop, and reset the chronograph.
Speaking of the movement, Minerva makes some of the all-time most beautiful calibers. The 13.21 is no exception, featuring beautifully shaped large components which sweep across large expanses of the 13 ligne movement. The edges of each component is chamfered by hand, including my favorite, the infamous 'Devil's Tale' column wheel lever. Movement is manually wound with 60 hour reserve.
Stainless steel case w/ 18 karat white gold bezel is in mint condition and measures 42mm x 12.5mm x 51.5mm lug-to-lug. Unworn textile strap and steel deployant buckle. Complete with Box & Papers dated February 2024.
