I must say I don't have a clear idea of all the famillies in the Montblanc's catalogue and this helps to see a little better how it is organized. I have a soft spot for this complete calendar watch, it has a nice style and looks very well balanced (on the... 

Interesting point Mark

On the complete calendar vs annual calendar. I agree the annual calendar's movement is a tad small for the case and wished the case could be made smaller as mentioned. Another factor is date and day aperture vs sundials. I personally prefer subdials to ap...

Robin, Thanks for part 3 of the Montblanc Heritage Chronometrie Collection. It explains the Collection positioning in the Montblanc watch portfolio. Is the Meisterstück watch line cancelled? I like this watch you showed..... It seems the most useful in th...

Quick question - how is the thickness of the ExoTourbillon Minute Chronograph? A tad thicker than a Nicolas Rieussec chrono or almost the same? The MB R230 movement looks pretty thick in that picture. Cheers, Anthony
