The Montega company's unusual timepieces are extremely rare and were especially popular in Middle Eastern countries. As the chronographs feature a 45-minute counter – which is particularly useful for soccer players – Brazilian soccer star Ronaldo was happy to be the brand ambassador for the company.
Reference MC01 is one of Montega's most iconic watches. Studded with gems, the timepieces are always and eye-catcher on the wrist; their heart is the automatic chronograph calibre 2047 based on standard calibre ETA 2892A2.
