Montblanc unveils new blue color scheme
MONTBLANC unveils its Metamorphosis and patented Exo Tourbillon in a new blue color scheme. Montblanc unveils the Montblanc Star Legacy Metamorphosis Limited Edition 8 in a sparkling blue color. This innovative timepiece literally transforms itself, revealing two faces with distinctive high complications that allow the wearer to appreciate the time in different ways. Due to the complexity of the timepiece, only a few watchmakers have the expertise and experience to create timepieces at this level. First introduced in 2010, the patented Exo Tourbillon complication is a key pillar of the Montblanc watch collection. The idea was to position the large balance wheel, beating at the traditional low frequency of 18鈥000 oscillations, outside of the tourbillon鈥檚 rotating cage (explaining the term 鈥淓xo鈥). This offered a spectacular view of the tourbillon in motion while improving the precision of the timepiece. Montblanc is available at Rustans Makati, Rustans Shangri-La, Rustan鈥檚 Cebu, Greenbelt 5, City of Dreams and Resorts World.
