The detail which pleases me the most in a Montblanc Villeret watch. The finishings of the movement.

And without doubt, the Cal 16.29 is an excellent reason to fall in love. 


The " Devil's Tail ", which is in fact a Chronograph break lever, is beveled with great care,




before being " installed " in the movement, which is equally finished with the same care.



The level of decoration and finishings is something we are not used to see, anymore, in modern watches. 

Best,

Nicolas

My appreciation of the 16.29 movement continues to grow. With the "problem" my 1858 had now remedied, I can sit back and enjoy and admire this superb movement. Thanks for posting these awesome pics. M4
