DESCRIPTION
- Montblanc Star World-Time GMT Automatic:
The Whole World on the Wrist
On Monday, January 17th at the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) in Geneva, the Star World-Time GMT automatic was unveiled to the public and the international press.
Shanghai yesterday, Frankfurt today, New York tomorrow: business is global and people routinely travel around the globe, leaving their families and business associates on other continents and in other time zones. Time-zone watches, which show the time in at least two zones have accordingly gained greater relevance nowadays. The new Montblanc Star World- Time GMT Automatic is a cosmopolitan instrument designed primarily for businesspeople or bankers who travel the world and at the same time want to keep a watchful eye on the opening hours of e.g. the world’s stock exchanges. This wristwatch puts two different time zones on its dial and at the same time, indicates the time in all the worlds 24 time zones . It does so – needless to say – by purely mechanical means.
Convenient Operation is the Topmost Priority
Ease of operation and outstanding user-friendliness are salient features of the new Montblanc Star World-Time GMT Automatic. Montblanc’s engineers at the manufacture in Le Locle, have indeed taken an innovative approach to the handling of this complex construction. All functions can be operated via the readily grasped - and for improved security – screwed crown in 3 positions. When the crown is in its neutral (unscrewed) position, turning it clockwise manually winds the automatic movement and turning it counter-clockwise resets the outer ring which indicates the worlds 24 time zones. When the crown has been withdrawn to its first extracted position, turning it clockwise resets the date and turning it counter-clockwise triggers the GMT hand (with the red tip) to advance in hourly increments. Finally, when the crown has been further withdrawn to its second extracted position, turning it clockwise adjusts the 12-hour and the minute-hand in the usual manner.
The 12-hour hand is permanently coupled to the movement and shows the time in the wearer’s present location. The smaller GMT hand culminating in a red tip is accompanied by a contrastingly coloured 24 hour-scale indicating whether people are momentarily at work or asleep in the distant time zone. The outer ring simultaneously indicates the corresponding time on all the global time zones when correctly adjusted with the current time and location of the GMT hand.
Based on a special toothing system, this entirely new setting mechanism, by which both, the flange and the watch movement can be activated, has been subsequently submitted for patent protection. Not only can this device separately control all indicators via one and the same winding-stem, it also disconnects the movement from the wheels of the time-zone and worldtime indicators whenever a time-zone correction is made. The movement continues to run accurately while the time zone is being reset – because a precise mechanical movement that runs at a stable rate, would be of little use if it looses precious seconds whenever its hour-hand is reset for a new time zone.
The mechanism is integrated into self-winding calibre MB 4810/405, a precise and rate-stable movement which amasses a 42-hour power reserve and relies on a balance that oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 A/h (4 Hz).
Elegance for Daily Use
This little micromechanical miracle is safely harboured inside a 42-mm stainless steel case that’s built to cope with the rough treatment a frequent traveller’s timepiece inevitably encounters. Although this robust case is watertight to three atmospheres, its broad and brightly polished bezel gives it a classical and elegant appearance. A pane of sapphire crystal in the back of the case offers an unobstructed view of the movement and the winding rotor. A second pane of sapphire, anti-reflectively treated on both its surfaces, protects the uncluttered and readily legible dial, which is adorned with guilloche. The date is shown in the classical manner inside a window at the “3” and a ring marked with twenty-four city names corresponding to the world’s twenty-four time zones can be turned at the outer edge of the dial. Arabic numerals and well-proportioned leaf-shaped hands indicate the current local time. Within the hours-circle is the slender 24-hours scale, along which a small GMT hand points to the hour in the second time zone. This scale’s twofold division into bright and dark halves enables it to double as a conveniently legible day/night display for the second time zone.
The new Montblanc Star World-Time GMT Automatic is available in two versions: one variant boasts a black guilloche dial, silver-coloured Arabic numerals and rhodium-plated hands; the other has a silver-coloured guilloche dial with black numerals and blued hands. The timepiece with the black dial is affixed to a black alligator-leather strap; the silver coloured model is attached to a comfortable bracelet made of articulated steel elements. A triple stainless steel folding clasp reliably closes and easily opens each wristband.
