Description

High tech outside, classical mechanics insideThe watches in the Montblanc Sport Collection are an unmistakable blend of dynamism and masculinity. This is particularly clear from the Montblanc Sport chronographs, with its tough stainless steel case and black DLC coating. DLC stands for "Diamond Like Carbon" and is used for scores of technical applications requiring high resistance to mechanical stresses and corrosion.Tough, black and totally uncompromisingThe entirely black case, black bezel, black dial and black alligator leather strap give the Montblanc Sport Chronograph Automatic a completely new look that makes it look even tougher and more uncompromising than the Montblanc Sport Collection already is. Set against such a deep black background, the bright lettering and edges to the counters, the luminescent numerals and indices, together with the gleaming silver-coloured pushbuttons and winding crown, stand out as striking highlights. Apart from this, the new chronograph \u2013 like all Montblanc Sport Chronograph models \u2013 has a conspicuous magnifying glass over the date window at 3 oclock. While the minute and hour counters at 12 and 6 oclock are designed to catch the eye, the small second at 9 oclock is the soul of discretion. This emphasises the watchs vertical axis, which is made to appear even longer by the deep black alligator leather strap with its triple folding clasp.As reliable as the man who wears itThe Montblanc Sport Chronograph Automatic possesses a unidirectional rotating bezel with a highly visible luminous dot at the zero position and a minute scale in negative relief. The convex sapphire glass is scratch-resistant and has an antireflective coating on both sides, guaranteeing good legibility even under water. As a genuine sports watch, it is water-resistant to 20 bar. In addition, the protrusions on the side of the case efficiently protect the crown against knocks and impacts.The Montblanc Sport Chronograph Automatic is driven by a mechanical movement with an integrated chronograph function that is among the most reliable calibres available on the market today.
