SIHH 2009: Montblanc Profile Lady Elegance Etoile Secret Watch

Red gold and the sparkle of Top Wesselton round brilliant diamonds create a powerful aura of radiant elegance for the newest member of Montblanc's feminine Profile watch collection, which will debut at the 2009 Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH).

The Montblanc Profile Lady Elegance Etoile Secret watch features a 23 x 35mm case crafted from polished 18-karat red gold; the gold crown displays the distinctive Montblanc star. The diamond setting, which continues uninterrupted between the rectangular case and the mother of pearl dial creates a striking impression that evokes flakes of falling snow gently settling upon the Alpine slopes; a Montblanc diamond--like the brightest star in the sky--is proudly set at the 12 o'clock position. In total, 125 diamonds adorn the dial (including the single Montblanc cut) and 113 grace the case. A white satin strap and a red gold folding clasp completes the feminine ensemble.

The Montblanc Profile Lady Elegance Etoile Secret watch is fitted with scratch-resistant crystal manufactured from sapphire. Timekeeping functions are animated by a highly precise battery-powered quartz movement. Water resistance is rated at 30 meters.

In addition to the model displayed, Montblanc will also present a version with a brown dial and strap. Production of both variations of the Profile Lady Elegance Etoile Secret watch will be limited to editions of 10 pieces.
