That is a very special watch.
Congratulations on getting it. And what wonderful customer service. I'll bet there isn't another brand anywhere that would do what MB did for you. Just great.
Superb Minerva chronograph, congratulations....
...and what an excellent and really intelligent service Montblanc offered you, it has convinced me to get more serious about Montblanc Bravo for your watch, I am jealous Cheers Francois
Such great service!
And above that, congratulation on such magnificent watch! Love the minerva watches of that period Look forward to see more photos of it Best, Sam
Fabulous watch with service to match

The dial....
I honestly don't know about the dial. I suspect it could even have been an unused dial at the Minerva factory - a NOS vintage dial. It's just spectacular. The gentleman I bought it from - who was very knowledgeable about Minerva in this very specific time...
