SIHH 2016: Montblanc 4810 Orbis Terrarum 43 mm.
Jan 19, 2016,12:12 PM
You loved the Orbis Terrarum unveiled last year?
You will love the new version, unveiled this week at the SIHH.
Some changes:
- A new case, 43 mm big ( 41 mm for the 2015 version ), with beveled lugs. The proportinos are quite harmonious with a 11, 87 mm height.
- Some new colors, going from orange to green ,showing the cold and warm points of the planet.
- Some luminous dots on the minutes ring... This is the only point I don't get, as the hands are not luminous. But will we see them in the definitive watch?
An anecdote: This one was internally called the " Jamaican ", due to its colors. Note that this nickname is not official.
I must say that I quite like it. I still don't know if I prefer this one over the 41 mm one. I find it funnier, more " living ".
What are your thoughts?
Best,
Nicolas
