New Mistress - Nicolas Rieussec Monopusher Chronograph Open Date

Jul 06, 2017,00:20 AM
 

I've been trying to find this manual wind version for quite some time. Fortunately Montblanc has a piece available from their HQ. And it came with their 500 hours test certificate.

Was worried it would wear too big or heavy, but it felt fine on my wrist, the thickness was there at around 14mm ++ , no complains here coz its not too apparent.  But then again, Grand Seikos basic 3 hand watches are around that height too. What more this is a chrono.

I didn't know this watch.

One of the truly great Nicolas Rieussec watches you got! Looking forward to seeing it here more often, together with your impressions of it (after you've had it for a while)

yes I agree on the power reserve thingy, it's important when it comes to manual wind watches

but not a deal breaker of course as I usually only wear my watches a full day max, next day would be another rotation watch. I was pretty puzzled on the engraved numbers too, as I did not see it in the pictures. Then again, you hardly see the caseback pic...
