It was 1 - 8 - 58 in former times
When Montblanc took over Minerva they decided to produce the "fait main a Villeret" models (i.e. the Villeret 1858 line) according to the 1 - 8 - 58 rule.
58 pieces in red gold, 8 in white gold and 1 piece in Platinum. So this is from the 16.29 Monopusher Gran Feu enamel Chrono the "1". The 8 WG pieces came with a black dial and the 58 RG with a white dial. Same holds true for its little brother with the 13.21 caliber. There was also a blue enamel platinum "1" but that is already sold. And finally there was a bespoke piece in blue with white dials and WG case (made upon request to my knowledge).

Blue enamel and platinum case
Today in my MB boutique - ordered for me and now I am thinking.... LE 1/1 ...
What a nice blue
Please share some more pics if u can. Especially from the back. Merci
thank you! it is a gorgeous watch and I was so happy to find out that this one was still available
it will get new shoes and afterwards I will pick it up with better pictures; but only in about 8 weeks as I will in-between leave soon for our winter home to get some sun ;-)
Marvel is a nice description!
for me it is an ultimate beautiful watch with so many nice shadings - and i fear that the wrist time for many others will tend towards Zero. Knowing that there is no other like it tops it - even though it is a killer in terms of overall budget (for me)
Congrats! I never knew this piece existed.
Always thought it’s only black and white dial. Enjoy wearing it in great health!
