This comes with a tang buckle so all set! :)
And I know my Heritage Spirit Orbis Terrarum problem now. I asked for a short strap and was given a short strap that is from another Montblanc watch collection (the Star collection) and hence the deployant buckle pin was a tad small for the hole on the leather strap (which was for the Star watches' pin size)
Anyway I much prefer tang buckles now

Bravo Robin.....
Congratulations, you have a wonderful piece joining your already splendid collection of very fine chronographs Cheers my friend from a little envious, Francois
Thank you Kari
Indeed it is big at 44mm but I am used to larger watches now Cheers Robin
I hope I will do the same
when getting older and growing bigger (read: fatter). Best, Kari
I am eating like a small pig and
perhaps I can try your MB in one of my visits to Singapore. Best, Kari
I will.
I can serve you a beer in the pool bar of Mandarin and perhaps show something you have not seen before. Plus I can see you stunning MB chronos. Best, Kari
Probably in May -
then it's warm enough in Singapore. And I'll make everybody happy in AP Service Centre by dropping my RO QP back there. Best, Kari
Very happy to read that, Robin.
You will see that this watch is a killer. Once on the wrist, it is very hard to remove it for another one... Bravo, once again. Best, Nicolas
Thanks Nico! Now I know
The feeling! I will struggle to rotate watches the next few weeks! Cheers Robin
Beautiful watch and addition in your collection Robin
Just take care with the buckle MB fixation. Congratulations and enjoy this baby. Cheers, Patrickh

had the pleasure to see Nico's Mb ... it came piping hot straight out of the manufacturer
A great collector's piece! Best Moritz

Enjoy your new amazing montblanc, fantastic watch !
And now there's two!
Well done and congrats on receiving an amazing watch! cheers fernando
A pair of watches powered by Minerva movements
I am very contented ! Thanks Fernando Cheers Robin
Congratulations, Robin!
That\'s an awesome blue and the movement is really very nice!
Looking forward to it!
Very nice looking watch. Seeing yours and Nico's pictures has me drooling....but my "enforced laws" of my collection makes it difficult to add without removing.... :-|
To be honest Robin
Montblanc wasn't a brand that I followed but you and Nicolas newest edition has made me realize what a mistake I have made! Fantasic addition! You have a great set of Chronographs. Sincerely and Respectfully Joseph
Lol Luis
You are also becoming a Vlad here lately if you have not noticed.... Lange and moser recently eh? :p
The process begins...
First the "double bite" to provide ample amount of venom. Next a little coercion. I can already feel the eyes turning red and the fangs growing... Sincerely and Respectfully Joseph
Glad we could share our passion with you Joseph
I too struggled to overcome the brand logo on my first Montblanc watch purchase back in 2013 which was my Villeret chronograph grand feu enamel. But after that first step, I have since become a big fan of Montblanc watches especially those in their collec...
Yes my first "eye opener" was indeed...
The 3 part review of your beautiful Villeret grand feu enamel. This collection I must say is very underrated. Overall I am still learning everyday, so all I can do is humbly sit by and absorb all this passion and knowledge that is freely given everyday on...
I am so happy to read your reply Joseph!
Thank you for appreciating my write ups on my MB Villeret I hope to share the goodness of Montblanc especially their watches with their movements from Villeret and their recent good value watches from Le Locle I truly believe the brand is on the right tra...
Oh my!!! That's stunning!
Big time congratulations! I am now beside myself with anticipation for mine to arrive. Your photos are simply spectacular. Thank you! M4
Yours should come soon M4!
Let us know and we can do a roll call! I think we have Nico, Michael, you, me and Alex with this watch already in steel or rose gold Cheers Robin
Yup, two distinguished gents fall for the same blue-eyed beauty...oh wait
...they are twins I have always been put-off by that big crown which stabs me in back of my hand and looks like a roof vent. But that is req to complete that vintage look. MontBlanc has a very appealing crown otherwise - black/ivory color emblem. ...
Ka-blam!
Darn it, Robin. That blue is shazamaliciously bodaciotastic. (I\'m at a loss so I\'m making up words.) Movement ain\'t bad either.... Congrats! Best E.
Way to go, Robin!
A great chronograph. And now PuristS have "Before 1" and "100". C'est magnifique!
Yes! Congratulations Robin.
Wow, the dial is superb, and it seems to vary a good bit in different lighting, which adds to the interest. I really am happy yours has arrived, and such a special number. Thanks for the fine photos! PS - I would love a shot taken straight at the side of ...
Yours will arrive soon too!
I can\'t wait for you as well Ok will take a side profile shot for you very soon. Stay tuned Cheers Robin
Superb acquisition, another beautiful movement and very nice blue watch.
This is the year of blue watches....did I mention you are also buying watches like groceries ) Congratulations and Happy for you, our well deserved MB mod! Rgds Raymond
Thank you very much Raymond!
I won\'t be buying anything for a loooooong time now! Cheers Robin
Thanks bro! Red accents....
Yes you love the red accents details. They go very well with black or blue dials especially Cheers Robin
Very nice addition Robin!
Wear it in good health... and I remember having to convince you for your first Villeret, now you spend willingly :-p Warmest, Mike the enabler
Yes Mike I still remember!
I "gave you a series of PuristS tests" and your answers helped to convert me to a Montblanc Villeret fan! Thanks for all your help Cheers Robin
Congratulations!
Well done Robin! The watch fits your wrist well unlike mine when I tried one at a Mont Blanc event in London this week. Perhaps, you are wearing it slightly higher up your wrist or your wrist is bigger than mine (have you been working out lately?! but it ...
Thank you Sham!
My wrists are around 6.2 to 6.3 inches only - not big at all To be honest the watch does look big when viewed top down on my wrist, especially when taking a picture. But when I view it in a mirror from a 3rd person perspective it looks great! Also the pil...
Well deserve.
Wear it in great health. Can\'t beat the 100/100 number as well. Congrats!!!
Actually
Does it mean you got the absolute last piece of the 100th limited edition? That\'s impressive.
I ordered piece # 100 out of the LE 100 pieces
Becos I like that "perfect score" number 100% It doesn\'t mean this is the last piece available I believe. There should be some pieces of this in the boutiques and you can find out from them if there are any left for sale. Hope this clarifies Cheers Robin...
Happily blue
Robin, Congratulations to this addition as it arrives in an already important collection, but I\'m sure that it has not any reason to hide. Enjoy it in many ways. Kind regards Kolosstt
Thank you very much! I am very happy with the blue too
That blue dial is to die for Cheers Robin
Wow wow wow
