Hi Robin,

Thank you for the efforts you have put in to producing such captivating and detailed reports of this wonderful timepiece.  It really captures the technical prowess, innovation and attention to details that went into crafting this watch.  But, at the end of the day we are simply mesmorised and marvel at the shear beauty of this watch. 

All the best,

Ken

Like you I always find hand finished, artisanal creations in watches very interesting That is the key reason why I fell in love with Montblanc\'s collection Villeret back in 2013 Cheers Robin

I really enjoyed this post...

and the other two. Mont Blanc is really producing some haute horology. Dave

Thanks Dave and I agree with you

The finishing on this Villeret (and all the other ones) is just stupendously good. I didn't know they painted the globes like that. That's a cool picture.

It's the souls of the watchmakers and craftsmen

Put into these Villeret watches. Centuries old traditions still being practiced today Patrick! Sometimes I wish they can produce more and quicker but I guess the spirit of Minerva will be lost if so Cheers Robin

Two details I loved a lot, the Tourbillon Bridge, and the upper part of its cage.

Plus, of course, the two sphères... Even if they cannot be considered as a World Time, to be precise. Nonetheless, there are some great détails. The only thing I would have liked is a more sensual case. But for the rest... WOW! Best, Nicolas

Thanks for your feedback Nico

Glad the Vlad likes this watch More sensual case? Perhaps like the traditional Villeret case with the hunter back ? I think that will ice the cake too Cheers Robin

Thanks for your continued dedication Robin. Very impressive writing.

And this MB Tourbillon... wow. It has to be one of the top new releases in recent years. Visually astounding, technically uncompromising!

Thank you for your encouragement Mike
