Very complete report!

You definitely need a UTC/Dual Time watch Robin (or even a worldtimer?) and there are very interesting models out there

It is interesting to see they do all the settings by the crown. The usual additional pusher is generally not very well balanced.

The movement is quite small and basic (even if nicely finished for this price point), this is what I would regret maybe.

Nevertheless, as we already said before, Montblanc is really making a natural and very interesting quality/price ratio, away from what the whole sector has been heading toward.

It is a very clean watch, making this kind of interesting model much more affordable.

I don't know if it is part of this line but the worldtimer is also a great novelty, I'd like to have a look at it when available.

Thanks a lot for this very comprehensive feedback Robin!

Cheers, Mark

This watch is too big and not only for you ..I don't understand why a lot of watch firm think " bigger is better " Best Christian

Thanks Christian for your feedback :)

Agree with you - too many brands are still doing the bigger is better method which is wrong IMHO for elegant and Classic watches Thank you for your encouragement and I am glad you enjoyed the report Cheers Robin

It will be the Heritage Spirit Orbis Terrarum, which I have paid a deposit already and waiting patiently for it to arrive. This photo makes me think of my would-be incoming patiently Cheers Robin ...

Good to see some familiar sights around Suntec City! :-) Oh, how I missed the sights, shopping and food of course!! Looking at the HSOT photo makes me cringe for one too ... LOL! I'm looking forward to seeing one in metal. Hope everything is going well wi...

Hope to see you on your next visit to Singapore Ken! :)

With some good local food I think the HSOT is poisoning you gradually but surely lol! Cheers Robin

A nice and useful watch but...

By: foversta : June 13th, 2015-13:05

Actually there is no real issue with this watch. The complication is useful, the watch is nicely made and its price tag is very reasonable. But at the end it lacks the spice which would make it very appealing. I wondered why I had this feeling and I found...

Thanks for your feedback Fx!

By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : June 13th, 2015-21:08

I also feel the same as mentioned. I think that for first time watch buyers or the more general non WIS (yet) community (which is a large one for Montblanc as a market), their new Heritage Spirit and Heritage Chronometrie series will sell well still I was...
