Understood so it is not a true Worldtimer... it was my feeling.
It doesn't follow the Louis Cottier system.
It is written here:
The outer ring simultaneously indicates the corresponding
time on all the global time zones when correctly adjusted with the
current time and location of the GMT hand
So you need to move the ring to adjust it in coherence with the GMT
hand. It is not an automatic system like the Patek 5130 or the GP. So it
is not a true worldtimer.
Thanks.

Montblanc World Time
Dear forumners, I was wandering around a Montblanc dealership last week and saw a couple of watches that I had never seen before. The shop lights were too bright and my mobile phone has a bad camera utility....some of the worse photos that I have even tak...
Are the numerals on the silver dial executed in black?
At quick glance I am more drawn to that dial as well. Thanks for the quick pic Melvyn.
Saw the World Time...
and tried the black dial one on in Chicago at the Montblanc boutique. Felt very nice on the wrist, a good size for me. The innovation is in the crown setting of the world time ring; setting everything through the one crown is a feature that Montblanc has ...
Ahh, Why is MTF always the Purist who finds the hidden gems
like Cartier and Chopard before they were even popular? The Star World-Timer is an impressive and practical timepiece from Montblanc with several patents...its not just a cased ETA caliber with a module superimposed. Per the press release "Based on a spec...
Sorry but for me but I don't understand the watch...
Local time is 10:10 Second timezone is 13:10 But how do you use the WT ring? I mean, where is the city of reference? It is confusing for me. Thanks for the help! Fx ...
This is how the MB Star Worldtimer is supposed to function
From MB press release "Ease of operation and outstanding user-friendliness are salient features of the new Montblanc Star World-Time GMT Automatic. All functions can be operated via the readily grasped - and for improved security – screwed crown in 3 posi...

Functioning Principle
So I tinkered around with the watch for about an hour at my local Montblanc Boutique in Silicon Valley. The crown has several positions and this is how they work; Position 0 - Crown screwed in (it's a screw down crown). Position 1 Clockwise direction - Wi...

Just got mine last Monday!
Hi, I'm new to this forum. So glad to find the biggest Montblanc loving crowd on any watch forum. Below is my newly acquired Montblanc Star World-time. I've posted the photos somewhere else, but would definitely love to share with you guys. Accuracy so fa...
Congrats Luis and thanks for sharing your new watch!
It is an under appreciated model in Montblanc's lineup. There is a unique patent on this watch since the worldtimer and timekeeping functions are all controlled via the crown only. Also it won the Petite Aiguille prize from the annual Grand Prix d'Horolog...
Mike, you are absolutely right
about the bracelet. It is the most comfortable bracelet I've ever worn. Thank you for the warm greeting and kind words. I am really happy and proud to be part of this big family. Having spent quite some time reading most of the posts on the Montblanc foru...
Under-appreciated Montblanc?
Hey! the Montblanc Star World-timer is well appreciated by PuristS. Regards, MTF
Great watch congrats Luis!
I love the dial design alot! The bracelet reminds me of my breguet marine bracelet which is both comfortable and looks dressy enough too. A very fine gentleman's watch you have. Congrats and may it time happy moments for you anywhere in the world where yo...
Biggest Montblanc loving forum on the planet
Luis6, I like your description! Thanks for the much better photos than my useless Blackberry 9xxx series attempt. As i posted before, I am usually a black dial guy but the silver white Montblanc Star Worldtimer really works well for all the details to rea...
It's getting cooler, and
I decided to replace the original bracelet with a leather strap, which worked out fine for me. Waiting to see my dentist. ...
It is always nice to have a good companion with you at a stressful event
I see you have the GMT set also for your "home" time so it works as a 24 hour indicator. Thanks for the new photos. Best, Mike
Thank you.
Seeing my dentist is not as stressful as it sounds like, since my dentist is a kind lady and her assistant is a cute girl. Haha!
I am starting to like this watch!
Looks great on strap and on your wrist Luis! cheers robin
