Nicolas Rieussec
The first mechanical movement made by Montblanc in the company's own manufacture in Le Locle is inspired by the invention of Nicolas Rieussec from 1821, the first chronograph of our time. Montblanc’s Nicolas Rieussec Monopusher Chronograph with the force of a hand-wound Montblanc calibre MB R100 and a classic column-wheel mechanism, this timepiece pays tribute to the watchmaker who truly wrote history.
Montblanc’s refined products contain unique DNA, and Montblanc’s artists have deemed it their soul purpose to make visual this life force. By materializing the spirit of the product and the Zeitgeist surrounding its conception, truly original pieces of art are generated. Inspired and inspiring, discover our creators.
