Regarding a Dual Time function at Montblanc, I really prefer, by far, the Heritage Vasco de Gama. Just perfect and more desirable for me with its power reserve at 12 and little earth at 6.

Regarding the ExoTourbillon, I particularly love its dial. So nice. It's like owning on his wrist a part of the night sky.

Thanks for the review my friend.

Best wishes

Montblanc launches three new models in the 4810 ExoTourbillon Slim and 4810 Dual Time lines

Montblanc has had quite an active year so far, with the relaunch of the TimeWalker line (more here: ), the new TimeWalker Chronograph Rally Timer Counter (more here: ), the Montblanc Summit Smartwatch (more here: ), and the more recently released Unice...  

The dial of the Exotourbillon Slim is just awesome. The proportions as well as the micro rotor.

The only thing is that I am not too keen on the presence of the tourbillon on the dial side.... Best, Nicolas

I fully agree with you, Nico!

If the dial was 100% aventurine and the tourbillon at the back, that would be so much cooler. Sadly, such solutions are quite rare nowadays...

Well, hnoestly, I don't see the point to hide a tourbillon.

In a wristwatch, it doesn't improve the accuracy... so if we hide it, it becomes totally useless. And the ExoTourbillon has a specific animation compared to other classic tourbillons. So I much prefer to see it dial side. Fx

Different tastes 😊

I agree that the tourbillon is there more as a demonstration of skill rather than for improving chronometric precision. As for wanting to see it all the time - probably lies in the eyes of the beholder 👍🏻

How tastes change

KMII Thanks for the update. It's funny how my tastes have changed with time and location. 17 years ago, the silver dial and red gold numerals of the Montblanc 4810 Dual Time would have been 'Da Bomb' but now, it's just not right for me. On the other hand,... 

I hear you, MTF!

So the Aventurine may yet draw you into the Montblanc fold? 😉 Interestingly, when i tried to help some female friends look for a watch the steel case / gold numerals got mentioned as a good choice frequently - goes with more outfits or something to that e...

Could not agree more on the Aventurine!

So cool! As for the Vasco da Gama, I see your point but suppose the two were designed for different customers in mind.

Would fully follow you in that case!

 
 By: KMII : June 24th, 2017-01:25
The Vasco da Gama is also more up my street 👍🏻

He he 😊

Well, you shied away from the tartare in Switzerland...

But there's always a next time 👍🏻

Thanks Robin!

You are fortunate in the watches coming to Singapore sooner than they come here 😊
