Montblanc

Team, My first on many areas: - First time in my life that I strapped a Montblanc watch on my wrist. - First time that I posted here. I was offered by a long time seller a Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec chronograph, the first version based on my research. It'...  

is involved in trade you have my blessing :) ;) Looks good on wrist but different from what I'm used to see Yours D

At least took some shots of the Olimpico before you flipped it! Something you might share.... Best Blomman

I flipped the Vintage 1960. The Olimpico, the last from the series, is being pampered by my watchmaker and he just told me the fateful words "not for this week" (there is another mine on the queue - what will be?). My Olimpico is a bit new for you and Nic...

Robin, I left the watch at home, on my single head winder and when I went for lunch (I always had lunch at home. Pleasure to live less than one mile from my office) and ... I hooked. I go, for my peace of mind, do a quick stop over at my watchmaker and I ...
