It's getting really cold here and a blizzard is hitting us on the weekend!

Am here on a long business trip from Mon this week and will be here next week too then going to other parts of this region for work.

The Heritage Spirt Orbis Terrarum is really becoming my favorite travel watch. It was so fast to set time when I change timezones from Singapore to Frankfurt (transit) and then to New York - all with a single push of the pusher .

Some pics to share in my trip so far.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Cheers
Robin

Key Points from the Discussion

The Montblanc Heritage Spirit Orbis Terrarum is praised for its comfortable fit, even on smaller wrists, due to its short lugs.
The original Orbis Terrarum (V1) is preferred over the newer, more colorful V2 due to its size and dial aesthetics.
The Montblanc M pen by Marc Newson is a notable travel companion, with community members inquiring about its design and functionality, particularly for left-handed users.
The watch's quick-set time zone adjustment feature, operated by a single pusher, is a significant advantage for travelers.
The emotional connection to a watch and pen can make stressful business trips more enjoyable.
The 4810 Orbis Terrarum is mentioned as a potential alternative, prompting interest in comparing its colorful dial in person.

When it will travel everywhere with you, all around the world, it will become a keeper. Nice post, my friend. Lovely watch, too. Best, Nicolas

A nice watch to accompany you, blizzard or not, is always a good comfort. I\'m liking this one more and more and am planning to check it out in the metal the coming week at the Montblanc boutique here in KL on Monday.

Robin, I\'m kinda interested in the Marc Newson pens. Which one did you get and how do you like it? And how\'s the cap which doesn\'t post? - pen people say it\'s the right thing but practically speaking, I\'m not sure... Best E.
