To see Montblanc’s Only Watch 2023 timepiece, you will not only have to bid on it, you will also need to get to it with an ice pick, donated by world record-breaking alpinist Nimsdai Purja. Encased in a block of ice free of oxygen, the unique piece introduces an entirely new middle case material that has compounded with CO2 and carbon fibre.
