Montblanc’s Star Legacy line was first launched in 1997, inspired by its popular writing instrument Meisterstück, and vintage pocket watches, and its distinguishing feature is the brand's white star logo on the crown, created in 1913, and inspired by a bird’s eye view of the Mont Blanc Mountain with its six snow-covered glacier valleys. Last year in June, the brand welcomed five new additions across two sub-line - Blue Exploding Star and Grey Capsule - inspired by the parent collection and different viewpoints of the mountains respectively. Now, the brand has revealed two new Star Legacy Limited editions - Automatic Date (Ref. 132948) and a Chronograph Day & Date (Ref. 132950) featuring green guilloché dials.
Both newly introduced models are limited edition of 800 pieces, encased in a 43mm stainless steel topped with polished and satin-finishing scratch-resistant, domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating. Like the other watches in the line, these novelties also feature the Montblanc emblem on the crown.
