The original version of the Orbis Terrarum with the 41 mm case and on the bracelet is for me an interesting "every-day" watch.

Though, I wonder if the dial design so close to to what Vacheron Constantin offered with the world time model 86060/000R-9640 was such a good idea of LVMH.



And now Christopher Ward came up with the C1 Grand Malvern Worldtimer, with an in-house worldtime module on an ETA 2893 movement. Instead of the day/night disk turning beneath the map illustration of the Montblanc, Christopher Ward offers an orange marker to highlight a time zone (for home time, e.g.). While the haptic sensation provided by the Montblanc with its more substantial case is better, the retail price draws attention when a Sellita movement is used. Christopher Ward sells the watch for around £ 1'000.

I think you're spot on...

With a different movement this watch would certainly gain additional appeal. The concept and the dial are certainly spot on already

Yes, why not! [nt]
