About N.R. Chronograph

Thanks a lot Mike for this kind welcome, I should probably apologize for not having mentioned that I post for the 1st time at this forum. Although a fan of traditional manufacturers, I think that Montblanc has chosen the right "path" to follow, and therefore deserves at least a look, or even more! Actually I am based on the perfect review by Anthony Tsai and VL Kong montblanc.watchprosite.com

where I read.." The Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec that we will review is the limited edition yellow gold version of 75 pieces. Other precious metal limited editions are available in platinum (25 pieces), white gold (75 pieces), and rose gold (125 pieces). The regular production pieces are offered in stainless steel". Is it something I don't understand well?

Could you please (or anybody else of course) mention which references are actually available is s/s? (since affordability is an issue..)

Thanks again for your help!

choice You can see that the ownership group is growing everyday since the Rieussec was first introduced at SIHH2008. Check out Mitch's post below! I think you may be confusing two models together. Unfortunately the Manual wind MBR100 is a limited edition ...

I just checked the catalogue I obtained at the NYC MB boutique and there is--or is going to be--a SS version of the Rieussec Chrono Open Date with the manual wind movement. Best, Mitch

Hi Mitch, I think that is in reference to what we've been calling the "skeleton" date

By: mkt33 : October 27th, 2009-17:02

MB refers to it as the "open date" The change this year to the Rieussic line will be interesting More in December! Best, Mike...

Hello All, Are there any information about the price N.R. s/s "open date" version? I check (by reference number) in my local (polish) M.B. dealers but they don't say nothing about price.

The latest retail price for the open date Rieussec is about $15,000 dollars Pricing may vary around the world and so I do not know what the final price will be in Poland. The New York Montblanc Boutique expects the first shipment of the Open Date Rieussec...
