Montblanc

The whole booth looked very much like an interesting gallery for modern art, but there was much more to see and to experience. Mike already showed you the latest watches from 2013 and he also mentioned it looks like a consolidating year for Montblanc. The...

I love their tourbillons. Was there any talk of the Metamorphis coming to market? I know that is old news but have the had success to your knowledge of getting some out there? I want to say a year ago they were hoping to start deliveries. Thanks again
