Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet Watch Watch Releases

The Montblanc Watches Models Replica Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet does exactly what it says on the cover, and the clue to this one is the last part of the name – quantième complet. This phrase indicates a complete calendar, and for Montblanc, that takes the form of a four-part calendar. Back to basics with this one – as far as traditional dial layouts are concerned, and we couldn’t be happier about that.

Given that perpetual calendars seem to be rather “in” at the moment, it is worth noting that the Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet is not a perpetual calendar – if that’s what you want, you have to check out the Meisterstuck Heritage Perpetual (hands-on here). The one we are looking at here, though, you will need to adjust 5 times per year – for when the month has fewer than 31 days – to keep the date accurate. Displayed on the periphery of the dial surrounds by a red-tipped hand, adjusting this indication is accomplished by a button that is set in to the side of the 40mm case.

With such vintage chops plus a traditionally decorated movement beating in the far-from-modern 2.5Hz, you would be forgiven for assuming this timepiece is all about beauty and might suffer from bad timekeeping. This is where the legacy of former CEO Jérôme Lambert really comes to the fore, integrating Minerva’s traditional methods with the contemporary testing equipment at Le Locle. After each Montblanc Watch Grace Kelly Replica 1858 Chronograph Tachymeter Limited Edition 100 watch is cased up at Villeret it’s delivered on to the lab at Le Locle, for a battery of tests the brand refers to as the “Montblanc Laboratory Test 500.” As the name implies, this evaluation lasts for 500 hours and involves 5 phases:Winding Performance and Assembly Control (4 hours). In this evaluation, the watch assembly and winding mechanism are assessed for post-production faults.Continuous Accuracy Control (80 hours). During this period, the opinion is analyzed for precision in 6 positions.Cyclotest (336 hours). This is the longest period of this evaluation, and it’s supposed to simulate real-world use the watch could receive on the wrist. The watch functions are participated in a variety of positions and temperatures.General Performance Test (80 hours). The watch performance is checked for mistakes in numerous positions and temperatures following the battery of this Cyclotest.Water Tightness (2 hours). Finally the watch is checked to ensure the sapphire crystals don’t fog up when exposed to humidity at different temperatures, and then the watch is submerged in a pressure of 3 atmospheres to guarantee water resistance matches the stated depth.The Montblanc Laboratory Test 500 is a lengthier and more rigorous process than the 16 days necessary for a Chronometer Certificate from Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres (COSC), and can be notably performed on the assembled watch instead of just the motion. This should make sure that every superbly finished watch the Montblanc centre at Villeret produces is also both accurate and enduring.

That is only one part of the four-part calendar, though, as you will find the next two indications for the calendar just below the applied 12 o’clock index. There, you have the day of the week and the month showing up in modestly-sized windows – which, based on the official images, we fear may prove to be a tad too small, but that is something we’ll determine once we go hands-on with this new release. Combined with that central hand, it would seem that we have all the pieces needed to know where in a month (or on a calendar) we actually are, no?

Well, as it turns out, on the Montblanc Watches Automatic Replica Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet, the moonphase indicator – which appears at the 6 o’clock position – is considered to be the fourth part of the calendar. While I would not normally consider it to be, I suppose it does make sense, as we see moon phases called out on printed calendars. On this particular implementation, I like the fact that Montblanc made it very clear (via a printed scale) that the indicator relies on a 29.5-day cycle.

As I mentioned earlier, the Montblanc Watch 5222 Replica Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet features a 40mm case, and it is just a hair under 10mm thick, made of stainless steel with alternating polished and brushed surfaces. Both sides of the case have a sapphire crystal, as you would expect, with the rear crystal giving you a view of the MB 29.16 automatic movement housed therein. The movement is more than likely going to be a Sellita base caliber (running at 4 Hertz with 42 hours of power reserve), with a special module on top that allows for the four calendar indications. The dial is silver in color and appears to have a mild sunburst pattern to it. I do have a concern with the dial, though – when combined with the polished and rhodium-plated handset, you do not have a whole lot of color differentiation there, so time-telling at a glance may be tricky, unless you tilt your wrist to have the beveled edges of the handset catch the light.

Then again, this may not be much of a concern in real life, and we are looking into getting one in for a review (which, of course, would settle this question). Or, if you like, you can head into your local retail location that carries Montblanc when the Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet is availabile in July. When available, you can pick up your own for a price of $4,900 on the leather strap, or $5,200 on a 5-link bracelet. That strap seems like it would be another reason to give this watch a once-over – Montblanc claims that the three-part clasp is super flat, which could be nice for having a compact deployant. Regardless, the Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Quantième Complet is a very polished-looking piece that will let you know where you are in time – unless it gets all wibbly-wobbly, that is. montblanc.com

French watchmaker Nicolas Rieussec is credited with inventing the first inking chronograph in 1821, made to precisely measure the running times of horses. Considering Montblanc Meisterstuck Watch 9168 Replica has at one time or another been best known for their writing instruments, this seems like a uniquely fitting homage. This is a much bigger watch compared to the Star Legacy Automatic Chronograph at 44.8mm with 15.02mm and the case is inspired by the pocket watch layouts of Minerva founder Charles-Ivan Robert, such as the Gold Hunter Calibre 19″ from 1927. This is not the initial Rieussec-inspired chronograph the newest has launched, with earlier models including the Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Automatic in 2011 (reviewed here) and also the Montblanc Homage To Nicolas Rieussec in 2014 (hands-on). This newest model features a reworked dial, which unites some key design elements from its predecessors, whilst trying to enhance both legibility and finishing. The Montblanc Star Legacy Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph is a monopusher like the previous models, with the single pusher incorporated to the crown. Also included is a GMT hand for tracking a second time zone, also a day-night indicator located at 9 o’clock on the off-center hour and minute display, a date aperture at 6 o’clock, plus a journey function allowing for rapid advancements of the hour hand and date display.
