However I didn’t order one although I was tempted for awhile as I can’t carry it off. As you can see from the wristshot, the lugs sticks out from my wrist.

Glad to have some hands on time with the red hot Montblanc 1858 Split Second Chronograph LE 8. This is a 44mm vintage style titanium mono-pusher, rattrapante chronograph which is inspired by 20th century chronographs. It features a rather interesting and ... 

The dial looks good ...

Personally, I feel that a case size of around 39mm would have been perfect.

I feel the same 41 would be max

I completely agree...

It’s still a beautiful watch, but sometimes less is more.

Yes Less is more

Ya no doubt this big movement won’t fit into a smaller case

Downside is it will be limited by its size because not everyone can carry it off.

Same sentiment here

Last I heard 3 pieces are taken.

Thanks Nico

But I did not take the plunge for this as I prefer smaller watches.

+1 The movement is asking for 44 mm.

A stunning looking Interpretation!

All alterations of this line are very nice and this one adds a very low number and titanium to it. A magnificent piece with a top tier chrono movement!

Gorgeous piece!

However I did not take the plunge on this beauty as I generally prefer smaller pieces in the classic 38-40mm size.

Yes I know, which is sad

I can still wear the 1858 Tachymeter with the 16.29. I guess it’s because the case is slimmer.
