Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter: The watch which loves sun.

It must look silly, but try to put some blue dials under the light of the sun... Most of them will look harsh... It is not the case with the 1858 Tachymeter, It loves Sun: And cherry on the cake, one of the finest chronograph movements I know. What's not ...

My challenge will be to decide between getting that one or the VC corne de Vache. I know two different look, but will have to prioritize sadly! I could easily justify both but not t the same from a funds perspective

Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter: The watch which loves sun.

Crazy beautiful mouvement. Wow.

It is hard to find better, indeed.

I'm happy just looking at the movement! ;)

Me too! ;)

One my favorite activities

How I understand you!

I adore it! Not a single thing wrong with this timepiece.

Well, they could have given us beveled lugs...

Oh well, perfection doesn't exist...

Yes!

There are options as you know….

Other than mine? Yes.

yours with bevelled lugs :-)

Does that exist???

If you downsize the caliber, yes ;-))

Absolutely bluetiful, Nico!

Merci, Watcholic.

A very distinctive and superb look on your wrist! I can understand your big love for it!

Thank you, Chronometer.

I am still waiting with anticipation to see the unveiled secret in the coming weeks. Still not sure if I’m going to go for it or not but I look forward to it.

Keep us posted!

Don’t worry, you will be the first to know! 😎

Cool. Can't wait.

In terms of movement, the Montblanc every day.

Interesting! Even if the VC is also based on the Minerva?

Not Minerva but Nouvelle Lemania, my friend.

did not know that but would always pic MB Minerva first

May I ask why this would be your first choice? Just curious as I am not that versed in chronograph movement per say

Having been to Villeret at Minerva several times (this November again) I can simply cherish what they are doing ;-)

Make sense! Thanks

Ah! Do you where I could better educate myself on the difference between both? Thanks for the tip!

Not the same brand! Not the same level of movement finishings, not the same movement...

Ok got it thanks! Looking more carefully at the movement finishing from pictures I could find online, you are right not the same at all…thanks again

It is very clear, indeed.

Really curious to read your impression

Me too!

It's really neat!!!

And no possibility to get it worldwide?
