Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date

The Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date collection, launched in 2022, caught the watch world’s attention with its dials inspired by glacial ice from the Mer de Glace on the Mont-Blanc massif. Enriching the collection, Montblanc now unveils two new models: a bronze-tone model with a black glacier pattern dial, and a stainless-steel version with a new burgundy-tone glacier pattern dial.

Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date – Bronze-tone Dial

Capturing the color of the setting sun over the glacier, this new Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date combines a black glacier pattern dial with a warm bronze-tone case, introducing a new aesthetic to the Montblanc Iced Sea Automatic Date collection. The new bronze-tone timepiece features a case crafted from cupro aluminium, a special alloy that is one and a half times more resistant than bronze and is highly resistant to corrosion and rust. It is made out of a mix of aluminium and copper, in contrast to standard bronze (copper and tin), or brass (copper and zinc). Even if cupro aluminium is more resistant than regular bronze, it will still obtain an attractive patina over time.

This new bronze-tone edition comes with a new bi-color unidirectional anodized aluminum bezel, a new Montblanc Iced Sea logo inspired by a vintage Minerva export seal, and a 3D engraving on the titanium caseback with bronze-toned coating that features
