Montblanc - Bohème Moongarden

Montblanc - Bohème Moongarden

The Radiomir 1940 from Officine Panerai

Montblanc introduces a unique and exclusive complication developed inhouse: the Bohème Moongarden. A feminine and romantic yet highly functional complication, the Bohème Moongarden indicates the date, the classic moonphase as well as the name of each month’s full moon instead of the traditional name of the month. These twelve names are deeply rooted in ancient human culture and are symbolic expressions for the seasons. The name is displayed in a sophisticated crescent shape while the moon phases appear in an aperture at “6 o’clock”. From Ice Moon to Oak Moon, the names of each of the twelve moons are also engraved on the back of the 36mm gold case.

Officine Panerai - Radiomir 1940

The minimalist design and apparent simplicity of the first Radiomir 1940 in titanium conceal sophisticated details providing maximum reliability and the highest performance. The P.4000 automatic mechanical movement has the decentralised rotor which winds in both directions: a technically very sophisticated solution which enables the thickness of the movement and the case to be substantially reduced.
