Looks fantastic!
I'm not biased😁
I appreciate your posts with this watch as it was some of the only content I could find. I think montblanc needs to improve their online site for watches and the minerva pieces (I do understand this was an edition from 10 years ago and there was less coverage than nowadays).
Montblanc minerva cal. 16.29

Thanks for your help

Yes, the website is a mess

you will probably get to see it there
although it won't be for sale at boutiques or ADs afak; only by invitation
