Nice Montblanc but no Minerva
Compared
to the Frey Pythagores the dial is a bit boring, and I would have
prefered a smaller size on the case.
The new cal MB M 14.08 is a bigger size “copy” of the original 10½''' no. 48 Mechanical Calibre designed by André Frey in 1943, but I think the old movement is better proportioned.
I
love the old Minerva Pythagore, 34 mm case is just the right size for
this type of watch.

A brief hands-on with the Montblanc Heritage Pythagore Small Second Limited Edition 148
I recently had the chance to have hands-on time with the new Montblanc Heritage Pythagore Small Second Limited Edition 148 at my local Montblanc boutique. This particular blue dial model comes on a very wearable 39mm white gold case and is relatively slim...

Actually it is a Minerva from Montblanc. From a horology point of view it could be a future highly collectable line of watches. You have already one in the pocket, i wil follow when i have the chance to get one.
Agree with you
However it is unlikely I will get this piece as I do not like the overall design enough. I still very much prefer their chronographs.
Why not own?
I thought you bought that delightful Montblanc. Buy it. It wil only increase in value. 1000 is a lucky number, a good reason to turn back and show us your new Montblanc 🧜🏻
Not sure if you got the correct person here?
Not sure what you mean by 1000 is a lucky number? This is an LE of 148. And don’t know what you mean by turning back to show you guys the new Montblanc? I never plan to buy it and not banking on it to increase in value.
Well,
the layout and form of the bridges reminds me the older Unitas movements, the legendary caliber 48 is hardly recognizable! The wheels are very well decorated, I like the texture of the dial as well! What is the price tag? Yours, Adam
Yes exactly, the movement doesn’t really looks like the layout of a Minerva movement nor as well finished.
The price tag is quite hefty at near USD$22k.

I agree, I personally prefer the old Minerva Pythagore
But it’s at least a step in the new and hopefully right direction for Montblanc.
It’s a fine watch, but is it memorable
First off, well done on the photos. The proportions of the dial are better than the salmon dial small seconds with the , significantly so for me. The problem is the is a much finer movement aesthetically. At this price point, it matters. The salmon dial ...
