Montblanc

I am pleased to share a wonderful piece of news. My Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter chronograph has arrived today!



I love the blue dial!! And those cathedral hands! The vintage Montblanc mountain logo






The lovely Montblanc Villeret Calibre 16.29.
Icing on the cake for me was to get piece #100/100 of this LE 100 timepiece.



A more luxurious black lacquered Montblanc box than the regular Montblanc watch boxes (of course the Collection Villeret still has the most luxurious box).



A drawer in the box for the manual , 500 hour test cert and the warranty. There are also 2 keys to open or lock the box.



Very cool that the 500 hour test at Le Locle is also performed on the Villeret movement 16.29



The blue dial plays with light very well








Oh yes I collected my watch during a lunch with Montblanc staff in Singapore



A Minerva belonging to Julien the Villleret watchmaker and my new watch. Both have the same monopusher calibre.



Montblanc wristshots! A Timewalker DLC, a Star Twin Moonphase, a Minerva and my new toy

Hope you like these pics. I will share more over time.

That was why the gym yesterday lol!

What can I say, Robin - another brilliant piece Hope it will accompany you during many memorable oments and time some significant ones, too And that we get to see it very often here, too!

Now a Europe trip with a joint wristshot with Nicolas is absolutely essential!

With Nico and Michael (when he gets his!)
Thanks for your kind words my friend

Indeed it is big at 44mm but I am used to larger watches now

perhaps I can try your MB in one of my visits to Singapore.

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.

Looking forward

then it's warm enough in Singapore. And I'll make everybody happy in AP Service Centre by dropping my RO QP back there.

You will see that this watch is a killer. Once on the wrist, it is very hard to remove it for another one... 

The feeling! I will struggle to rotate watches the next few weeks!

Cheers

Just take care with the buckle MB fixation.

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

Cheers
Robin

Hope you can see this in the metal too
