Very true. These watches really struck the PuristS members.
I also considered the Omega, I had great access to it. But for me, the Montblanc 1858 has quenched a lot of thirst for anything else. A collection changer. And now, the brand has my full attention, I am eager for future models as impactful as this one.
The most bought watches by PuristS in 2016
Only two watches come to mind really. And I will explain my approach to this selection. First The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch CK2998 Limited Edition 19 PuristS have bought and took delivery of this watch last year. At least as far as my quick scan of the ...
Well deserved nbr 1, a great watch, happy to be part of the 19
And I hope to see and hold the MB 1858 Tachymeter during SIHH
I can fully understand you!
Contemplating myself if I shouldn't add it as well...but I'm trying to resist!
You?
The movement of the 1815 Rattrapante Perpetual just didn't satisfy you completely? ;-)
Add another one
Not me but a very good friend The watch arrived bit need to pick it up one of the days I'll try to make some good shots
Yes in percentage 'our' share of steel Tachymeters is inmense!
Maybe Mont-Blanc will through us a party some day ;-)
Did you count the number of members who bought the Tudor Black Bay Bronze?
I thought it was somewhere between these 2. The 2998 and the 1858 Tachymeter are in two different leagues, in terms of price and mechanically speaking. But they are two great watches, in terms of presence, character and charm. No wonder why they are popul...
No I kinda forgot about this one :-o
But this year I will keep (better) track of the 2017 developments in order to give a better report next year. This idea only came to me last week...
probably
but my gut feeling tells me not as many as the CK2998 (at least not posted). But I have no evidence to back this up...
Am sure the Bronze will have more owners at Purists then the Omega
and what about the Rolex Daytona 116500LN
Yes the Blue Panda is certainly last week winner on PPro
but I think that second places goes to PAM 662 Cheers D

I think it sets a new bar for me moving forward.
I am fortunate to have a few other pieces that move me the same, but for acquiring something new, I will be very discerning.
If the Montblanc was an option for me I'd jump on it!
Unfortunately, after much thought I don\'t think I can at this stage. The bronze one really got me going! I\'m not. A big fan of bronze watches but that one was an exception. The Speedy is a great watch, but my father has the FOIS and I actually prefer th...
There may be more than 10 in the end ;)
Not all have outed theirs yet, something tells me But great watches, both - no wonder they proved so popular here! Thanks for counting, Arie.
Well mine should be there in February
But already counted as mentioned by Padj. We can have a Dutch Montblanc Tachymeter GTG Cheers, Dirk
Number 20th
is for me for the CK2998. I have reserved it at my AD just before Christmas, couldn\'t pick it up, because of the two GO arrival. I am not a croesus at all! And I am started to think about the Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter Chrono in blue... Yours, Adam
it is a very impressive rate reached for the Montblanc chronograph...
Thanks for this post which underlines the Purists influence. Because if we love talking about watches, we are first buyers. Fx
It really is, isn't it?
Over 10% of the total production owned by PuristS and apparently still counting. On the other hand; it really is a PuristS watch. As if Mont-Blanc made it for us. ;-)
I need to add my CK2998 to the list...
So, I have been reading postings on this site, with regularity, for the past six months or so. I really enjoy the amazing watches that members own and the amazing photography that chronicles their acquisition and use. I joined the Forum this evening, in l...
Another contender...
Is the Seiko Presage 60th Anniversary Edition. I have counted at least 17 purchased by Purists so far and more may be out there. Just to make it a tad more complicated for you As for percentage of the specific Edition, the Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter is cle...
