The Montblanc Star Legacy Metamorphosis Limited Edition 8, developed and produced entirely by the Montblanc engineers and master watchmakers, literally transforms itself by revealing two different faces. Thanks to a complex mechanism activated by a sliding lever on the side of the case (similar to that of a minute repeater mechanism), the dial is comprised of a fixed part and moveable shutters, which can be opened and closed, offering its owner different ways to enjoy the time but also the solar system. When the shutters are closed, the watch's face displays a worldtime function at six o'clock in the form of a turning, domed Northern-hemisphere globe. The globe is surrounded by a 24-hour scale and day/night indication. When its shutters are open, the dial reveals the beauty of the Montblanc's patented one-minute Exo Tourbillon (which was previously hidden) that represents the sun at 12 o'clock. The tourbillon is supported by a sapphire crystal bridge. Around the Exo Tourbillon, a jumping date disc with a part to hide the other numbers is then visible. At six o'clock a complication reveals a realistic moon with its position in the sky as viewed from Earth. This jumping, three-dimensional moon turns constantly around the globe in a gyroscopic way as it would make its journey around the Earth. The moon is presented on a backdrop of aventurine that shimmers like a starry night's sky. The astronomical moonphase complication only needs to be adjusted by one day every 122 years.
