Lot Essay

Engineered for extreme conditions and boasting a captivating connection to high-altitude mountaineering, the Montblanc Geosphere Chronograph “Zero Oxygen” Edition is a truly compelling timepiece for the discerning collector.

Assembled without oxygen to prevent fogging and oxidation, it mirrors the low-oxygen environments of the world’s highest peaks—such as those conquered by Nepalese mountaineer and Montblanc ambassador Nimsdai Purja in 2019. The star of the acclaimed documentary 14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible, which chronicles his record-breaking ascent of all fourteen 8,000-meter summits in just seven months, Purja’s story resonates with authenticity. His extraordinary achievements are further honored by the engraving of Mount Everest on the watch’s caseback.

At the heart of this remarkable timepiece lies the intricate Manufacture Calibre MB 29.27, featuring a chronograph function, date display, 30-minute counter, and 12-hour counter. Adding a distinctive horological flourish are the rotating Northern and Southern Hemisphere globes positioned at 12 and 6 o’clock, accompanied by a 24-hour scale and day/night indication—precisely the kind of features a high-altitude adventurer would value.

The condition of lots sold in our auctions can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair and wear and tear. Their nature means that they will rarely be in perfect condition. Lots are sold "as is," in the condition they are in at the time of the sale, without any representation or warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to condition by Christie's or by the seller.
Any reference to condition in a catalogue entry or in a condition report will not amount to a full description of condition, and images may not show a lot clearly. Colours and shades may look different in print or on screen to how they look on physical inspection. Condition reports may be available to help you evaluate the condition of a lot. Condition reports are provided free of charge as a convenience to our buyers and are for guidance only. They offer our opinion but they may not refer to all faults, inherent defects, restoration, alteration or adaptation because our staff are not professional restorers or conservators. For that reason they are not an alternative to examining a lot in person or taking your own professional advice. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have requested, received and considered any condition report.
