Description from the seller
In this piece we present a piece of immense prestige and charm: a Montblanc 1858 Iced Sea Automatic Date in the highly sought-after emerald green color. A timepiece that combines high-performance sporty watchmaking with a hypnotic naturalistic design.
This watch is Montblanc's first professional diver certified (ISO 6425), but it is famous above all for its revolutionary dial. The manufacture managed to recreate the three-dimensional texture, the grain and the depth of glacial ice (inspired by the Mer de Glace on Mont Blanc) through a complex and ancient artisanal technique called gratté-boisé. The deep emerald green color captures the light, evoking the reflections of alpine lakes surrounded by glaciers.
The technical setup is impeccable. The 41 mm stainless steel case is topped by a unidirectional green ceramic bezel, glossy and scratch-resistant. The watch is waterproof up to 30 ATM (300 meters) and the solid case back boasts a magnificent 3D laser engraving depicting a diver and an iceberg. Indices and hands are generously filled with Super-LumiNova for perfect legibility in the dark, as documented in the photographs. The heart is the automatic movement Caliber MB 24.17.
The condition is to be considered in excellent general condition. The watch has been preserved with extreme care. The sapphire crystal and the ceramic bezel insert are immaculate, free of any marks. The stainless steel case is gleaming and robust. On the bracelet and, in particular, on the deployant clasp, there are exclusively extremely rare, negligible and almost imperceptible surface micro-scratches (hairlines) due to normal and meticulous handling of the object, which do not affect its beauty. The engraved case back is also perfectly clear.
