Why it is interesting

The anniversary pair offers a choice between a second time zone and a thinner case without sacrificing a useful 56-hour reserve.

Things to consider

These are dial and styling changes on existing platforms, rather than the debut of new movements.

The model in detail

MONTA announced the anniversary Neuchâtel · X editions on October 15, with their Windup presentation and sales starting in New York on October 16. Both receive painted markings and warm-toned lume. The Skyquest retains a GMT display and two-colour bezel, while the Triumph keeps a quieter three-hand layout.

The 40.7 mm Skyquest uses the M-23 and costs $2,485; the 40 mm Triumph uses the Sellita SW300-based M-22 and costs $1,895. The official announcement specifies 56 hours of reserve for both. Each edition comprises 100 numbered watches.
