Another great review, Robin...
One can hardly believe that you have not seen the watch yet 
I find the watch to be a very sensible addition to the 1858 collection and am quite confident of it becoming the best seller of the collection.
The solid case back is also a very good idea - any clues to what movement is used?
Montblanc 1858 Automatic Small Second
Here on PuristSPro, we have often talked about the newest watch collection from Montblanc, namely the 1858 collection. Here are some previous articles I have shared on the collection, which focused on the inspiration behind the collection as well as the T...

Here i have to agree with you 44mm for both the manual and auto versions is a tad big especially because the case is not too thick and the dial large and bezel thin. the black dial balances it else it would look even bigger The 1858 tachymeter chrono thou...
The 1858 Tachymeter, besides its 44 mmm case, is an example of balance. A much smaller case for a...
Time only watch with a Minerva movement... Hmmm... The Wizard should read us. Best, Nicolas
Or even a smaller 1858 chronograph with the
Minerva Calibre 13.21? That will be very nice too Cheers Robin
Unlikely enamel dial
That is mostly reserved for the Villeret collection , not 1858 or heritage spirit

I would certainly hope so!
"Montblanc Manufacture Villeret" - what's up with that?
I wonder how long the Minerva name has left? ...
Yes it is the Montblanc Villeret manufacture
I have referred to that many times and so has Montblanc. The manufacture is at LeLocle and Villeret. Minerva\'s heritage continues through the movements that are produced and finished at the Villeret manufacture and to your question will last as the movem...
