I have a couple of MLs too, they're very good. I think the Pontos collection has some excellent offerings for stylish everyday watches and the Masterpiece collection has some beautiful inclusions.
I think that an important fact about ML is that they are still quite underrated, they produce a much higher quality of watch than many more established brands yet often receive alot less credit for there often impressive achievements.
I think ML is a classic example of a brand that suffers simply because it is young. For instance, if one were to disregard history and judge brands simply on the merit of their current productions, then ML would sit comfortably higher than many of those brands that currently enjoy a perhaps undeserved reputation. Naming no names. Alas, it seems that if actions speak louder than words, unfortunately marketing often speaks louder than actions!
Anyway, rant over! Two thumbs up for ML
