Jérôme Lambert, Montblanc’s chief executive said, “Five watches are being revealed here for the first time at Watches & Wonders. This year we are launching a great collection, especially the limited edition of the Vasco Da Gama and it looks so nice on the wrist of Hugh Jackman. More than anything, he is a friend of the Maison.”
