How an automatic watch works
Your wrist gives it energy. A spring saves it. A tiny balance sets the rhythm. Follow the journey inside an automatic watch, one pencil drawing at a time.
Montblanc · Star
Ref. 118536
The Montblanc Star Legacy Small Second takes a 15 mm strap: measure between the lugs and that is the only number you need. A dress watch by proportion: a slim leather strap, plain or lightly stitched, keeps the line clean. With a 32 mm case and 30 m of water resistance, a strap of medium thickness keeps the balance. Automatic movement. Most straps here come with quick-release spring bars, so the swap takes a minute and no tool.
