A short history
Montblanc was started in 1906 by a Berlin engineer and a Hamburg banker who wanted to make fountain pens that were simple to use. In 1913 they registered the white six-pointed star that still sits on the arm of every product — it stands for the snow-capped peak of Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps. The Meisterstück pen followed in 1924 and is still the brand's best-known product. The sunglasses came much later, but they borrow from the pens: the same star, and rings around the arm copied from the Meisterstück barrel.
That is why Montblanc looks different from other luxury brands. There is no logo across the lens and no bright colour. It suits office wear better than most, which is a big part of who buys it in India. Whether you search Mont Blanc sunglasses as two words or Montblanc as one, or call them Montblanc goggles or Mont Blanc shades, these are the same frames — explained below.
Mont Blanc sunglasses price in India
Mont Blanc sunglasses price in India starts at around ₹23,000 here and goes up to about ₹39,000. Most frames fall between ₹27,000 and ₹30,000. Montblanc controls its prices tightly, so you will rarely see big discounts. What moves a frame up the range is the material — titanium costs more than acetate — rather than the lens.
| Price band | What you get |
|---|---|
| ₹23,000–₹25,000 | The entry point. Metal rectangles and squares in the simpler builds. |
| ₹27,000–₹30,000 | The widest choice, and where most buyers land. Metal frames in square, rectangle, round and geometric shapes. |
| ₹31,000–₹34,000 | Acetate frames and the larger builds. |
| ₹37,000 and above | Titanium and the most complex constructions — the lightest and thinnest frames Montblanc makes. |
The main thing that moves the price is the material. A titanium pilot sits at the top of the range — titanium is what lets Montblanc make a frame this thin and this light. A metal rectangle is the most affordable way in. Most of the range sits between those two points.
Other websites give very different numbers — ₹18,000 to ₹40,000 on one, ₹20,000 to ₹60,000 on another. The bands above are what you can actually expect to pay.
Why Montblanc sunglasses are expensive
The cost is in the frame, not the lens. Montblanc uses titanium and thick acetate. The star, the nib detail and the Meisterstück rings are real metal pieces fitted into the frame, not printed on. The frames are made in Italy, and Indian prices add import duty on top.
It is a fair question, and one most sellers avoid. Here is the honest answer:
- Materials. Titanium is light, does not rust, and is much harder to work with than the steel used in cheaper frames. The plastic models use solid blocks that are cut and polished over days, instead of being machine-moulded in minutes.
- The metal parts are real. The star and the nib-shaped arm tips are separate metal pieces, fitted one by one. On cheaper eyewear the same detail is printed or glued on.
- Made in Italy. Kering Eyewear builds the range in Italy, at Italian wages and quality standards.
- Import duty. The Indian price includes customs duty and distribution on top of an already high wholesale price. That is why the same model costs more here than in Europe.
- Few discounts. Unlike fashion brands, which are often 15–40% off in India, Montblanc rarely drops its price. What you see is what it stays.
What you are not paying for is the lens. 100% UV protection comes on a ₹2,000 pair too. With Montblanc you are paying for materials, metalwork and finish.
How to choose Montblanc sunglasses
Start with the shape, then the material. Material matters more here than with most brands, because titanium is what lets Montblanc make frames this thin and light. Then check the size numbers inside the arm: lens width, bridge width and arm length in millimetres. Match them against a pair you already own, because the right shape in the wrong size still looks wrong.
The shapes Montblanc makes
The range covers square and rectangle, pilot, round and geometric shapes, plus wider single-lens designs. Frames are mostly metal, with acetate and titanium alongside — titanium being what lets Montblanc make a frame this thin and this light.
Square and rectangle shapes make up the largest part of the range, so a rounder face is well served here. If your face is already square, look at the round, pilot and geometric frames.
By face shape
| Face shape | What works | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Round | Rectangle, square, navigator | Straight brow lines and defined corners give structure the face does not already have. |
| Square | Round, oval, aviator | Curves soften a strong jaw rather than echoing it. |
| Oval | Most shapes, including rimless | Balanced proportions carry almost anything in the range. |
| Heart | Round, lighter rimless, browline | Width is already at the top; lighter lower framing balances a narrower chin. |
| Oblong | Deeper lenses, full rim, decorated temples | Depth across the lens visually shortens a longer face. |
Lenses and size
Every real pair blocks 100% UV. Polarisation is only on certain models, so check the one you want. Gradient lenses are dark on top and lighter below — they suit Montblanc's plain style and let you check your phone without removing the glasses.
Three numbers are printed inside one arm — for example 57–16–145. They are lens width, bridge width and arm length in millimetres. Take a pair you already wear comfortably, read its numbers, and buy within 1–2mm.
Montblanc goggles, shades or sunglasses — the same thing
No difference. In India, "goggles" and "shades" both mean sunglasses. Montblanc makes no separate range under either name. Searching for Montblanc goggles shows the same frames from the same shops. Outside India the word means ski or swimming goggles, which is why some searches bring up sports gear instead of eyewear.
Two other points of confusion are worth clearing up. Montblanc and Mont Blanc are the same brand — the house spells it as one word, but both forms are used interchangeably, and a search for Mont Blanc sunglasses India returns exactly what a search for Montblanc does. And Montblanc is best known in India for writing instruments; the eyewear is from the same maison, which is exactly why the frames carry pen-derived detailing.
One genuine distinction does exist, though not the one people expect: Montblanc glasses usually means optical frames — prescription eyeglasses — rather than sunglasses. Those are a separate part of the range with their own models, typically carrying an O in the model code rather than an S. If that is what you are after, ask for optical frames specifically.
What comes with an original Montblanc pair
Every Montblanc frame carries the same markings. A model code starting MB, a colour code and the size are printed inside one arm; the brand name and a CE mark inside the other. An S at the end of the code means sunglasses; an O means optical frames.
The clearest mark is the white star. On a Montblanc frame it is a separate metal piece fitted into the arm, not printed on the surface.
What to look for
- The white star: six-pointed, fitted into the arm as a separate metal piece, with clean edges and an even shape.
- The model code inside the arm: MB, a number, a colour code and the size — for example MB0417SA 001 57-16-145. Search that code online to find the same frame again.
- The arm rings: on Meisterstück-style frames the rings are cut into the arm evenly, not stamped or painted on.
- Weight: titanium frames are very light but feel solid, and the hinges move smoothly and evenly.
- In the box: Montblanc's own case, cloth and papers. The codes on the box match the codes inside the arm.

Montblanc sunglasses — frequently asked questions
What is the Mont Blanc sunglasses price in India?
Mont Blanc sunglasses at Chashmish cost roughly ₹19,300 to ₹40,200, with most frames between ₹24,000 and ₹31,000. Montblanc controls its prices tightly, so big discounts are rare. ⚠️ Check the current price before buying.
Why are Mont Blanc sunglasses so expensive?
The cost is in the frame, not the lens. Montblanc uses titanium and solid blocks of acetate cut and polished over days. The star and the nib-shaped arm tips are real metal pieces fitted into the frame, not printed on. The frames are made in Italy, and Indian prices add import duty on top.
Who makes Montblanc sunglasses?
Kering Eyewear makes them under licence, in Italy. Montblanc itself is a German brand founded in 1906 and best known for the Meisterstück fountain pen — which is why the sunglasses carry pen details like the nib-shaped arm tips and the rings around the arm.
How can I tell if Montblanc sunglasses are original?
Look at the white star first: it is a separate metal piece fitted into the arm, not printed on the surface. Then check the model code inside the arm — MB with a colour code and size, like MB0417SA 001 57-16-145 — and search that code online to find the same frame.
What is the difference between Montblanc goggles and sunglasses?
None. In India "goggles" and "shades" both mean sunglasses, and Montblanc makes no separate range under either name. Searching Montblanc goggles shows the same frames from the same shops. Outside India the word means ski or swimming goggles, which Montblanc does not make.
Is Montblanc the same as Mont Blanc?
Yes. The brand spells it as one word, Montblanc, but both forms are used and bring up the same products. The name comes from Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps, and the white star stands for its snow-capped peak. It is the same brand that makes the Meisterstück pens.
Are Montblanc sunglasses polarised?
Some are, some are not. It depends on the model, so check the one you want. Every real pair has 100% UV protection. Polarised lenses cut glare from water, glass and wet roads, which helps if you drive a lot.
What are Montblanc sunglasses frames made of?
Mostly metal, with acetate and titanium alongside. Titanium is light, does not rust and can be made very thin, which is why it sits at the top of the range. The acetate frames are cut from solid blocks and polished, which gives deeper colour than moulded plastic.
Do Montblanc make eyeglasses as well as sunglasses?
Yes. Montblanc makes optical frames as well, and they are a separate part of the range — usually marked with an O in the model code instead of an S. Searches for "Mont Blanc glasses" usually mean those, not sunglasses. ⚠️ Ask Chashmish about optical frame availability specifically.
What size Montblanc sunglasses should I buy?
Use the three numbers inside the arm — lens width, bridge width and arm length in millimetres, like 57–16–145. Take a pair you already wear comfortably and stay within 1–2mm. It matters most on the thin metal frames that make up most of this range, where a wrong bridge width shows straight away.
