The Red Arrow is highly tempting and its movement; the Cal 13.21 more compact than the 16.29, but not less appealing.

Thank you! Those early villeret pieces can certainly withstand close scrutiny, on the movement side as well.

Yes, indeed. Even the less early ones.

Total package

With these watches. Love the fonts, depth, the texture, the colors. Very nice. 👍 I actually took some photos the other day of my two and these minerva 1858 markings.

I am not sure who worked on the design of those dials but you are totally right.

There are so many examples amongst top tier brands where a nice watch is ruined by a poor choice of font for example.

Those dials were at that time mainly designed by one lady in Villeret
By: penfriend : January 7th, 2023-17:27
I met here several times, can look for her name. The design then needed to be approved by the MD and the CEO of Montblanc

Sometimes people behind the scenes make all the difference. Patek can learn a thing or two from her ...

Right

It is the luck for others that the major is not the best with fonts. That is why i prefer Vacheron Constantin over them.
