I know. There is still a good chance I put my hands on the unveiled secret myself as my AD seems to have secured a piece with MontBlanc North America

It's been too long I didn't post a photo of my beloved Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter.

Time to correct this injustice, with a heads or tails. Without flash. Which wasn't easy as the light conditions were not that good... This watch is really photogenic. And it is an eternal love for me. Best, Nicolas ...  

Eternal greatness :) This Minerva caliber and the blue hmnmmmm

I recently played with the thought of hunting one down... the finish and looks of the caliber, the monopusher crown, it is a dream, plus I love blue. Now I am 'glad' that you brought your Rattrapante with you last week, I tried it at the Bar des Horlogers... 

ahhhh I see...

ok then, thanks to Jens :-P I understand your feelings as the Tachymeter suits you really great, I remember also the wrist shots!

Merci, mon ami.

It is a superb watch.

One of those pieces where dial and movement side are equally atractive.

you also need to give it wrist time!

nice one but you need a second one as well! so many nice offerings now available with smaller sizes

Which one then? Red dot or unveiled?

I will for sure my friend!

Underrated (if possible) a brand that punches way above its weight.

I love this old world “style” of movement. I would love to see a full collection of watches (I am not a collector) and have some time to gaze upon these stunning movements in person. 🤓

Well described.

There is SO much value in regards to cost when it comes to these Montblanc watches..

They are just art on the wrist, I cannot find a flaw in them. Thanks for sharing Nico.

Naaaaahhh…

This (= your) watch has no flaws for me. The lugs are perfect, too. It’s one of the best and most beautiful watches ever made. Just my humble opinion, mon ami.

Should I shut down my

"Tourbillon project" because of the, in my opinion, absurdly high costs and turn to other beautiful things, then clearly: yes! ☺️

Yes, you should!

a collection needs one Tourbillon

You have a point.
