Ticking to perfection – Zaim Kamal, Creative director of Montblanc speaks to Luxurylaunches
The 112-year old German luxury brand, Montblanc, has been keeping up with the times while also redefining their rich heritage. A key force behind this is the brand?s creative director, Zaim Kamal. We caught up with this maestro to see what makes him tick.
?For me the mechanics of the watch is what is important. When you pick one around and you have this click? that drives my craftsmanship crazy. Because whenever it comes to comes to clicks, I am like *tuk* (makes a tuk sound).?
This fascination for watches began in Kamal?s early years in Pakistan, where he was born and raised, dating back to days spending time with his grandfather. ?My favourite watch from his collection was Jaeger Lecoultre Leviaso. It was such a beautiful piece and I used to love clicking pictures.? ?But for me, more important was the mechanics of it.

It is like the watch speaks to me.?
In the five years with the company, he has lead the creation of some iconic timepieces such as the TimeWalker, Pulsograph – the Doctor’s watch, and the Summit ? Montblanc?s first smartwatch.
Other creations from his portfolio include the Montblanc Tattoo Collection ? leather smartphone covers, the Montblanc Urban Spirit leather collection, The Beatles writing instrument, the Nightflight and Sartorial Jet travel collections ...
